If we could get one or two other people willing to share the teaching
load, I'm happy to cover a lunch where we can work out the details of
what to cover, but we should have it rough-hewn on the list, I think.

I can get us something on UNC's campus with enough advance warning,
but that's a bit too far West for many of you. TKLC? NCSU (or is that

Email me if you want to help edit it....
