The White House is having a conference on work-place flexibility. I'm watching it online RIGHT NOW. (3/31/10 2:00PM) Dooce is there, btw.

I've been at too many of these policy panels. Lots of talking. No evidence or data to back up statements. No plan to improve situations. Correction, no realistic plans to improve situations. The average age of the women on this panel is 60; they haven't changed a diaper in three decades. They are professional conference attenders.
