I am absolutely thrilled to learn that Lorenzo Komboa Ervin will be attending and particpatinmg so heavily. I hope video and audio equipment will be available to tape his presentations and I offer to transcribe and publish them. I would also like to table the event on Saturday. Unfortunately, I will not be able to do the workshop on Sunday with Gale, as I must return to work, after a six-week convalescence due to some rather major surgery.
