I once observed, from the balcony, a meeting of historians of science, historians of technology, and sociologists of science. 1 was slightly tweedy, 2 very polyester, and 3 all in black with earrings and nose rings. Academic tribes.
I once saw, gathered at the same conference center Starbucks, historians of foreign relations, the wives and widows of African-American preachers, and contestants for a body-building competition. No physiognomic or apparel overlap whatsoever: three distinct groups of humanity.

If that were a joint conference, it would have been very interesting.
