Message-ID: Hi All, Here's the link to this afternoon's meeting about TPRC 2023: https://meet.google.com/vgf-vqpb-xkn Also, typically this happy little group gets together in December for a social evening rather than having a regular meeting. What's the feeling about this? The date that suggests itself is December 22 (a Thursday). We could meet in person, or continue the virtual get-together theme that we've done for the previous two years.

Message-ID: Hi All, Sorry everyone -- I completely gapped on tonight's virtual social. For some reason, I imagined today was Wednesday, and I had a leisurely supper with my step-kid, did some grocery shopping, got caught up on E-Mail and .. that's when I realized I'd missed our virtual get-together. Because today is Thursday. Ugh. My life is partly complicated right now because I'm hosting my step-kid, and I have seen them in quite a while, so we have some catching up to do. I hope you all have a lovely holiday season, with lots of good food, and that you are able to stay safe from the weather. (That last bit may not apply to you if you are in San Diego -- Hi Bob.) See you in January!

If you don't have some sort of external system clock, (e.g. a spouse), it's easy to get out of sync. (I actually misplaced a week when I was due to teach a course, panicking because I hadn't had the usual confirmation message the previous week.) Fortunately, I was a week early, rather than late.
