[athen] RE: [adtech-ps] Looking for a Volunteer with fast fingers[wi-fi card optional]

[Berkowitz, Daniel J]

I believe Ron is chatting or has chatted with them about such. But for a
short business meeting it is likely more of a hassle than it is worth to
set up the mics and such. If we knew that a small number of folks were
interested in off-site access then we could Skype them in using laptops.
But that would involve getting everyone set up on Skype beforehand.
