Reality Check

I read the 'future search' chapter in the OD textbook JP lent me. Future searches and AI Summits are wonderfully exciting, but how often do they occur? Both require 3-4 days with the 'whole system' in the room. How many groups are willing to commit this kind of time (not to mention money)?

Let's do a quick poll: Has anyone reading this ever participated in a future search or an AI Summit?
