Agreed. And we need good meetings. But we shouldn't assume that no meetings is better than good meetings.
Standing meetings work. When anyone (non handicapped) wants to sit down, it's a sign the meeting is going too long.

I've never had an opportunity to try it, but long ago someone suggesting that everyone needs to remain standing at meetings, to help expedite them. This would also make it more difficult to e.g. use a laptop to read HN instead of paying attention. :)
