That may be true if the park is Yellowstone. There is plenty going on at ILTA 2010 in the e-discovery space, as well as other areas of legal technology.

There seems to be some question on the estimate of the size of the e-discovery market as reported by George Socha and Tom Gelbmann in the 2010 Socha-Gelbmann Electronic Discovery Survey, as observed by Rees Morrison, of Law Department Management, and as rebutted by Gelbmann. By the time Gelbmann and Morrison sort that out, the market will move, most likely in an upward direction.
