Greetings Carl…
I was in Tulsa Sunday night , saw you talk, and spoke briefly with you after the Q&A. Thanks for coming to Tulsa. It was an excellent speech. Even though you were brief talking about most topics, I still had several “Wow!” moments.
I have been following PZ’s blog for years, and ERV’s since PZ first mentioned her. I have now added yours to my blog list.
