No. I doubt if it will happen suddenly. I predict a protracted decline. As
it shrinks, it will be forced to cut back and cut back, and the people will
get older and older and more out of touch, but there is nothing waiting in
the wings to replace it, so the loyal few will keep a shell going for years.
This will of course delay any regeneration, as while there is anything there
there will be no incentive for the terrific effort it would take to start
something like CCBN anew.
The only thing which could kill it suddenly is the continued total lack of
proper financial management (no Treasurer yet again these elections!), which
could lead to sudden bankruptcy if there were a profligate and stupid
Chairman. We currently have a stupid Chairman,
but I doubt whether he is profligate. He is however in the thrall of Andrew
Welch ( as
are they all), which is virtually the same thing.
