The beauty of doing nothing is that you can do it perfectly. Only when you do something is it almost impossible to do it without mistakes. Therefore people who are contributing nothing to society, except their constant criticisms, can feel both intellectually and morally superior

Update from MGC BOD: The conference organizing team is working non-stop to communicate with vendors. Once that settles our focus can turn to assessing the overall financial impact of cancelling the mtg & to exploring options for online content sharing. Thanks for your patience.
James Schnable@szintri
The 62nd Annual Maize Genetics Conference just cancelled. @ndeleongatti @corngenes @RWMaize @MaizeZynskiHI and all, I know this has to have been a hard decision. Glad we have leaders like you to make the hard calls like this one. Thank you.
