But if those lines contain questions, it gets you to the point where there is 
discussion, which is just fine, as you point out here:

The best outcome at a working group meeting is that, as a presenter, you 
spend most of your time listening rather than talking. If the mic line is 
empty, you probably should not have been on the agenda.
Dear Eliot and Joe,

The context of local conversations often use shorthand references to the 
material presented rather than restating the content to ensure remote 
participants understand what is being said.  

The IETF should devise a strategy able to virtualize both the local protector 
and PA in the event the venue no long has access to the Internet but where the 
meetings are still able to proceed.  Ensure remote participants are not 
considered secondary.  If fact, paying some access fee (that should be able to 
avoid VAT) might be reasonable.
