JavaOne - Cattle, Sheep, or Lemmings

So, I think JavaOne is really a complex logistical system, or some people may call this as people herding. Okay, that some people is me, I admit. I guess there is a whole thing on "herd behavior" in humans. But, my question is on whether humans (in this case JavaOne geeks) are like cattle, sheep, or lemmings. I guess it also depends on the hunger factor (i.e. if it is breakfast or lunch). Personally, I think geeks are more like cattle or sheep. That we usually have something that we want to do, but will be herded to some other place because of sheep dogs (i.e. conference coordinators).
