  1. I believe we’ll have someone from JI attending Thursday and will be putting up a report here. If anyone attending Tuesday in Logan or Thursday at Benchmark is interested in reporting on the event, let us know.

  4. Chris — Natalie and I will be at the Benchmark one. If the talk elicits anything way different than what happens at the other lectures, we can put something together.
