For those of us who don't live in the area, will any of these lectures be available online?
I was just thinking, I really need to move, or learn how to teleport....or learn to manipulate wormholes....something, somethings gotta give.
It's up to the speakers to decide whether they want their talks made available through video. If the Friends of Minute Man Park eventually announces that they're viewable in some way, I'll pass on that news.
