<span style="font-family: courier new,monospace;">Well another year has gone by, and so now is the time for another call</span><br style="font-family: courier new,monospace;"><span style="font-family: courier new,monospace;">for 'Lightning Talk' submissions for our Sept 24th meeting.</span><br style="font-family: courier new,monospace;">
<br style="font-family: courier new,monospace;"><span style="font-family: courier new,monospace;">All you have to do is talk for 5 minutes...</span><br style="font-family: courier new,monospace;"><span style="font-family: courier new,monospace;"> ... 5 slides is the most it could need!</span><br style="font-family: courier new,monospace;">
<span style="font-family: courier new,monospace;"> OK, it might take you an hour to prepare...</span><br style="font-family: courier new,monospace;"><span style="font-family: courier new,monospace;"> OK, as Damian once responded when I asked...</span><br style="font-family: courier new,monospace;">
<span style="font-family: courier new,monospace;"> 'Well it took me 5 years of learning to get to the point where I could do it in an hour'</span><br style="font-family: courier new,monospace;"><span style="font-family: courier new,monospace;"><br>
But don't let that discourage you.</span><br style="font-family: courier new,monospace;"><span style="font-family: courier new,monospace;"></span><span style="font-family: courier new,monospace;">I've seen each of you talk before for 5 minutes without even taking a breath!</span><br style="font-family: courier new,monospace;">
<span style="font-family: courier new,monospace;">Its not hard... I know you can do it...<br></span><span style="font-family: courier new,monospace;">I just want you to do it formally, on a topic that may be borderline<br>
</span><span style="font-family: courier new,monospace;">relate to Perl, and I'm asking you to do it in front of a small audience.</span><br style="font-family: courier new,monospace;"><span style="font-family: courier new,monospace;">And if you need more than 5 minutes, I thing that can be arranged if you ask nicely. :-)</span><br style="font-family: courier new,monospace;">
<br style="font-family: courier new,monospace;"><span style="font-family: courier new,monospace;">Is that too much to ask? No!</span><br style="font-family: courier new,monospace;"><br style="font-family: courier new,monospace;">
<span style="font-family: courier new,monospace;">To start the submission process I'll offer my own talk entitled:</span><br style="font-family: courier new,monospace;"><br style="font-family: courier new,monospace;">
<span style="font-family: courier new,monospace;"> "Kevorkian'ing VMware"</span><br style="font-family: courier new,monospace;"><br style="font-family: courier new,monospace;"><span style="font-family: courier new,monospace;">As your gong-master for this TPM session, please send your submissions</span><br style="font-family: courier new,monospace;">
<span style="font-family: courier new,monospace;">to me (so I can sift through the hundreds of entries I hope to receive<br>in the next few weeks and select the top 5 or 6 entertaining and<br>informative entries).</span><br style="font-family: courier new,monospace;">
<br style="font-family: courier new,monospace;"><span style="font-family: courier new,monospace;">But seriously... I will accept anyone and everyone.<br>So let those entries come flooding in!</span><br style="font-family: courier new,monospace;">
