concur. I actually think it happened in the late 1990s.
We had the biggest meetings ever running up to the "dot com" crash:
1998: IETF 42 (Chicago) 2106 attendees
IETF 43 (Orlando) 2124 attendees
1999: IETF 46 (DC) 2379 attendees
2000: IETF 48 (Pittsburgh) 2344 attendees
IETF 49 (San Diego) 2810 attendees
Of course, there was a lot of money on the money tree in those years.
