I would love to attend this lecture series, but I am exactly 607 miles away from Fall River way over here in Ohio. As a teacher, I just can't pick up and go. Retirement hits in 3 or 4 years..Watch out...I will be everywhere!! Does anyone know if the lectures are being recorded?

[Stefani]

There is "some talk" of something like this. More info will be posted when and if it becomes official. Great question, by the way!

[Stefani]

By the way, there is a big piece of Lizzie news that I am speaking about during my talk on Monday evening. It is about Miss Lizzie and will sure to surprise and delight the audience.

I can't tell you now what it is. You have to hear the talk to get the story! How's that for a teaser!?

Stef, I sent you an email through the forum, but not sure if you got it.
Because of Ted & my work schedule there is no way we are going to make it.
Will these lectures ever be put in print and compiled into a book. My other question is - when you do the lecture is there any way you could broadcast it over the computer so we could watch it? I know I'm not using the correct terminology. My nephew was going to get married in Vegas and was going to send us a link so we could watch the ceremony.

That would be AWESOME to have it broadcast live on the internet. I am over 2000 miles away from my homeland but I sure do wish I could attend each and every one of those lectures. They all sound interesting.

Because of my work schedule, I won't be able to attend. They all sound very interesting.
