During talks species of audience attendees were divisible among:
(1) Those who took no notes. Self-confident in their memory, they were, in appearance, unencumbered by pen and pad or laptop that would get in their way of listening to the speaker.
(2) Those who took notes. Writing in a manner that ranged from surreptitious to ostentatious, and industrious to a fault, these individuals didn't trust to memory.
(3) Those who had pen and pad or laptop for display alone. Maybe they forgot the implements were there, or heard nothing worth recording.
