You didn't read the paper, just the slide presentation.
If a slide presentation is done properly, then no, you can't get everything from it. Otherwise why bother to a) stand in front of the room and present it, the attendees can just read the slides and b) write the paper backing it up. My opinion only, but a presentation that is too filled with words/lines on the screen is not understandable when being presented.. it's distracting from the speaker.
In fact, this presentation was deliberately written without explanations, as our goal was to make people wonder if the statement was a myth or not. We then started our discussion of each bullet point, and got the audience to participate, giving their own interpretations. Marlene and I designed that presentation as an all day workshop, and it was meant first and foremost to be educational AND entertaining.
The paper will be on the NYOUG website in a few days.
