This should be a fun, but I agree with Kelly about group size, especially at Diesel. Any chance we can divide up into a few smaller discussion groups?
Kelly, Yair ... we're going to wait to see how many people actually show up, but the plan is to split into at least 2 groups. We'll have at least 2 great moderators in the house: Indy and Jim--so don't let the RSVP count keep you away!
My plan is to divide the group into two smaller groups... We can even make it three if some of the maybes shows up as well.
Dang. . .I only had one copy of an entire text book devoted to IQ that Owen gave me and I sent it to a girlfriend in NE a long time ago.
