> Good news. I spoke to Susan K. and Tim Mollison. Both indicated that  
> those who prefer to orally ask questions of the speaker following  
> his speech will be able to do that. (I assume those who prefer to  
> submit a written question could still do so). I further suggested  
> (to Tim) that a time limit of, say 30 sec., be set for each initial  
> question/comment and that the chair enforce it. Also, I suggested  
> that the question period be closed off after the suggested 20 min.  
> -- unless we agree at the meeting to extend it.
>
> Comments anybody?
>
> And maybe some of us who are too "vitriolic" or accuse others of  
> seeing reality through a  "fixed mind' lens should watch more Monty  
> Python movies.
>
> Happy New Year to all.

> PS: 1. Not being an either/or person myself -- which often gives  
> rise to conflict -- my preference is the Celtic both/and (I once  
> wrote an article on this). Specifically, both the unique knowledge  
> of the speaker and the unique knowledge of all in attendance is  
> important -- and our constructive oral sharing (either with the  
> speaker or informally afterwards) will hopefully advance the  
> knowledge of all.
>         2. I sent a copy of just this email to Tim Mollison as a  
> confirmation.
