Update on Tonight's Cancellation (10/20)

Circumstances beyond our control--again. I knew when I walked by the Sugar Land office and saw the office staff, the facilities people and all the tech people sitting in a circle there was a problem. The network had gone down and the A/C was dead. They were waiting for Centerpoint to call back. At any rate, the best we would have been able to have was a phone/audio connection. I didn't think that was appropriate for you to give your movie reports, or for our discussion of Buddhism. I waited until they confirmed this diagnosis right before 7:00.

Here's your job between now and next Monday (27th)--
  • I've received movie papers from a number of you, but I need the rest ASAP.
  • Keep up with the reading. There is also a reflection question on the agenda for tonight (below). Do the best you can with it based on your reading, and get that e-mailed to me.
  • I'll be posting the reading list and the requirements for the book project in a couple of days. Please begin checking out the territory on this.
  • Next week's agenda will include your reports in a very quick fashion, the Buddhism discussion in a quick fashion, and a start, at least, on background to study Chinese culture.
See you then! Please e-mail if you have questions.
