2020 - E-Learning - Day 9

4:13 p.m. I've gotten to a few research papers, had a meeting with Jon Lehtola, have had an indoor walk and an outdoor walk, answered some emails, got a message out to parents of students, and updated some financial stuff.  I also sent another request for a conversation with Chase tomorrow.  All-in-all it's been a pretty good day.  I'd still like to keep tackling a few research papers today/tonight.  Oh, I had someone come look at the Dodge too, but I don't think he's interested.  I'm beginning to wonder if I will just have to give it away.
