I really disagree: education is teaching people about something.
If I teach you to use a tool, or if I teach you that the bill of rights
protects you from unlawful searches, both are education. If we areeducating
people to what the DMCA has done and what the long term effects will be,
that is still education.
Anything less is dropping the ball for a User Group, in my opinion.
Feel free to disagree.

Asking to leave isn't upset? Ok, fine.
