Two Months of Rock and Road

Today's science seminar went well. There was a reasonably full house (maybe 150 or 200 people?) and most of them looked reasonably awake all through it. Afterwards, I had some new folks express interest in my Rockies field course for next summer. Additionally, a bunch of the audience stuck around to look at some rock and fossil specimens I had brought along. When I got back to my office, there was a nice note in my in-box from the provost, who had attended and complimented the talk. And then I got a free lunch with three of my colleagues! Chinese food... makes me sleepy, but dang, it was good.

Here's the slideshow I gave, via SlideShare.net (The embedded version below doesn't seem to be working for me, so here's a direct link to the PPT on SlideShare):

Can you add your voice from the background in the slide show? It takes only a few minutes and that will make a difference for people like me who cannot attend your talks. You can also use mp3 player to record your talks and post separately or add in PPT. This is a great slide show and thanks for sharing!

Actually, that's in the works... Stay tuned. We digitally videotaped the talk -- so hopefully I can put actual video online soon.

A very neat slide show - and it's still trying to load on your webpage!
