Nice article Rod,
I agree with the majority of all the points you've made. In the midwest we once had an awesome star party called Astrofest. Although Astrofest still exsists, its feeble remnant of its once great stature. At the zenith of its being, it drew nearly 1000 attendees and an average 20-25 vendors, 3 of which were major players in the industry. Unfortunately, I believe greed and ego got the best of all people involved with running the event, and as a result the astro-community at large ended up being the biggest victims.
PR
I really, really wanted to make it up to Astrofest some year. Waited too long. Dangit. I'm doin' it too: 
I have heard the whold sad story. Shame.
