Interesting that you'd say Defcon was scheduled over USENIX Security. I 
always thought of it as the other way around. Having attended for lo 
these many years, I can assure you that the choice of dates is not 
cavalier, and because of its success it appears to conflict. For several 
years now, the sister conference, Blackhat, has taken place during the 
week, and the scheduling of it certainly also overlaps something or 
other. Defcon has always been last few days of July, first few days of 
August. Always.

You just have to choose. I choose Defcon; you will probably continue to 
choose Usenix Security. There you have it.
