[Durham INC] May Delegate Meeting - 28th @7pm IN PERSON!

[Mimi Kessler]

Thank you for expressing your needs and concerns. Having participated in
many hybrid meetings, I find that the audio is hardly ever satisfactory
even when hosts make an extraordinary effort with microphones
and/or speakers.

I am willing to try this in the future, but at least half the purpose of
this particular meeting is about socializing. Sorry you cannot be there.
