Hi Johny, this talk might go really well with #32 in January. Would that timing work for you?

[jonnyk20]

Sure!

[ShMcK]

I've confirmed venue/sponsor for Jan 15th at Terminal.io downtown. @jonnyk20 does that date still work for you?

[jonnyk20]

@ShMcK Sure!

[ShMcK]

Great, I'll put up an event posting later today. I won't mail it out, but feel free to send me any edits.

[ShMcK]

@jonnyk20 still on for this Wednesday?

[jonnyk20]

@ShMcK yup. Should I just show up with my laptop a few minutes before event or is there anything else I should do to prepare?

[ShMcK]

@jonnyk20 Judging by the snow today, I think we'll have to cancel the event tonight.

Let us know if you're open to reschedule to another day.

[jonnyk20]

@ShMcK Sounds good! Other than February 19th, any Wednesday is good for me, as long as I know early enough to block it off

[ShMcK]

Would Thursday, Feb 13th work at all?

[jonnyk20]

@ShMcK sure!

[ShMcK]

@jonnyk20 just checking in - still on for Thursday Feb 13th?

[jonnyk20]
