Yes, Sundays 4:00pm Denver (I *think* that’s 7:00pm in Montevideo. Are you still there?)
For the Portland crew, that’s 3:00pm US West Coast.
Basically, the same as always. -

Hi all,
Since you haven’t heard from me for awhile, I want to give an update. I ran into some unexpected difficulties with my website, so I haven’t prepared any more talks yet. I’ll let you know when I’m ready to resume.
In the meantime, you might wish Mary Ann a belated Happy Birthday. It was Friday! 🎉
