But the clock is ticking and I thought that I would not make the perfect the enemy of the good in this matter and post them now.<\/p>\n
I hope you have enough screen “real estate” on your monitor to open up two windows, the video in your browser and the slides in a Keynote\u2122, PowerPoint\u2122, or PDF reader screen.<\/p>\n
When and if I can improve this offering, I will do so and announce it here.<\/p>\n
I stand ready to answer any questions or clarify any points or defend any position.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
