The process by which they came to be there is quite compelling and seems to have gone something like this:

  1. Attend talky get-together
  2. Have idea
  3. Take action

Whether they achieve their stated aim or not doesn’t matter. If nothing else they stand as evidence that 2 (coming out of 1) can lead to 3.

Tangent – this reminds me of the bit in Scott McCloud’s utterly excellent Understanding Comics that talks about the action all happening between the panels.
