Why is this funny?

I was recently approached by a fledgling non-profit organization who wanted me to set up Audio and Video for their Inaugural Launch meeting: five microphones through a mixing board to a house PA system, and live video pushed to monitors in another section of the facility. Why is this funny?

The group is Minnesota Women in Film and Television:

a fledgling non-profit organization set up by 40 women taking a pro-active approach to helping women seek success in the male-dominated film and television industry.

hmm...

Don't get me wrong, I am all for groups wanting to help others "seek success" (even if they are blatantly sexist) Not to mention the person who started the organization is a personal acquantance of mine, and a former news celebrity. I would gladly help them if I could, and if they had a webpage I would gladly link to it.

But 40 women who want to seek success in the film and TV industry and none of them can work a mixing board? So they hire a mook to do it? Why is that funny?
