We had a blast a few weeks ago debuting the classes online - and it looks like it's going to be another fun time tonight. Hope to 'see' a few of you there.

Just did the two scheduled for this evening and they were great! I really dig the venue as its about the only way I can participate in the vast majority of them.
Thanks to reef and Janna for setting them up this way and to all those who helped, it was fun and informative.

Man, that was FUN!! Waynne, you crack me up - your comments throughout the classes made me laugh!!
I simply can't believe the attendance at these. It's amazing and not what I expected at all. (I thought maybe 5 people would show up) The first course a few weeks ago drew 30 people actually attending (although more had signed up) - tonight we had 40 that attended.
And having some of our AAT - Valerie and Tom and many others that I don't think are on this board, answering students' questions as they rolled in, was SO helpful and just a lot of fun.
THANK YOU to all who attended and helped! Next up - invertebrates on Tuesday May 10th.
