I'm sorry?

I know loads of businesses that are becoming more efficient by using tools
available on the Internet to reduce their overheads, including
telecommunications costs.

You're running an organisation that is at the heart of the Internet, and
you're restricting participation in teleconferences due a "cost problem".
You're holding meetings at all four corners of the world instead of holding
them on the best communications medium available _ever_.

Am I the only one here that thinks you're doing it all backwards?
