Speaking of, what does the group think of eventually meeting on the quad 
with folding chairs if the 'State admin will allow it? Many of us have 
been vaccinated for months, we have good habits, etc. A cone of some 
sort could do as a sound system for the presenter. :-) Seriously, 
batteries and inverters are trivial and the only issue would be the need 
for rain dates. It might be a way to transition back to the lecture 
hall. Must not forget bug spray, though. Not talking about June, but 
perhaps July? I floated this to Seth Holler of 'State but have not 
gotten his reaction yet. Seth enabled us to meet at 'State many moons ago.
