The difference between the well considered positions of Ross and Adrian is
the difference between principle and practice.

It can be argued that the lack of travel funding is a contributing cause of
the circumstances you point out, Ross.  Either one's rich uncle died, or an
interested party is picking up the tab.

But from, e.g. the Bizconst website:

"The BC represents business of all types - multi-nationals,  medium-size
companies and small enterprises. One of the Constituency's strengths is its
association membership - which extends BC outreach directly to over 50,000*
companies and indirectly to over 1.5 million companies worldwide."

50,000 companies can replace their UNICEF box in the lunchroom for an
afternoon.  If that's a conflict they can move BC collection day from
Halloween to April 1st, although it's hard to tell which would be more
appropriate for the BC.
