<span style="font-family: courier new,monospace;">As per recent history, September in Toronto is fraught with lightning.</span><br style="font-family: courier new,monospace;"><span style="font-family: courier new,monospace;">
...lightning talks that is. TPM's September talk (27th) is scheduled<br>to be </span><span style="font-family: courier new,monospace;">a Lightning Talk session, so we need volunteers!</span><br style="font-family: courier new,monospace;">
<br style="font-family: courier new,monospace;"><span style="font-family: courier new,monospace;">Pick a topic, pick a module, pick a rant, pick a favorite,<br>pick anything</span><span style="font-family: courier new,monospace;">
related to Perl, or anything even vaguely<br>related to programing or </span><span style="font-family: courier new,monospace;">computers.<br><br>Come up with 5 minutes of stand-up material for your talk<br>(or ten minutes, or even longer if you need it)
<br><br>Send me a title and an estimate of how much time you'd like,<br>and I'll compile/announce the list and act as moderator/gong-operator<br>for the night.<br><br>Judging for this talent show will be done strictly by the
<br>amount of applause, with no internet voting allowed.<br>The winner and runners-up get... well...<br>they get nothing because we don't have a prize budget.<br><br>But everyone who presents and listens is guaranteed to
<br>learn something (dammit... I want entertainment, not 'lernin!)<br><br>So send me your topics (by the 20th), its always a great night.<br><br>Fulko (gong) Hew<br><br></span>
