The first few minutes were just horrible so I left. It appeared as if there was no preparation on the part of the moderator (Tony Hillerson). To be fair, I suppose this session got better after I left, but this conference costs too much money to sit through something that starts so poorly. I felt the need to salvage those 50 minutes in another session.

I forgot to mention: To add insult to injury, either the sound was set up poorly or the panel members weren't using the microphones properly. I think it was a bit of both.

I felt that in many of the cases, Scott Green did not answer hardly any questions, and when he did they were quick, succinct answers. Part of being on a panel is to share information, and I felt that he was not willing to do that. He should not have been part of the panel.

I did not like any of the panel sessions and this one in particular. I don't think panel sessions are what people come to this conference to see/hear.
