After registering you will be guided to a webpage, confirming your registration. You will receive a confirmation email from Project SOAR one day prior to the session, with information about joining the webinar. See below for information on configuring your computer to take part in the session.

Downloading the webinar software: To configure your computer to use Elluminate, visit http://www.elluminate.com/support today. Follow Step 1 to ensure that you have the correct version of the Java software. Follow Step 2 to ensure that you can launch Elluminate. Do not worry about configuring your audio settings, as we will be using a telephone to conduct the audio component of the webinar. The installation process will take 5 to 10 minutes, and you can work on other projects while it completes. Complete these steps at least the day prior to the webinar, as we will not be able to troubleshoot technical issues during the training.

Re: Mind's Eye Re: the rich are mean

Sometimes the out-of-the-blue is feigned rigsy or even made up by
toadies. The notion of the rupture of Newton's mechanistic world-view
by Einstein is one such example. It doesn't look nearly as clever if
you know he was reconciling Maxwell and contemporary (and conflicting)
experimental evidence and that there was relativity in Newton, Galileo
and Poincare. Now Einstein is breaking up at the fringes just as
Newton and Maxwell did as we discover Lorentz transformations aren't
needed in electron behaviour at very low temperatures etc. Any way,
I'd clearly need you at dinner to stop me boring everyone with this
kind of talk! Availability and prices by return please! I'm planning
to sit down in a couple of days time and write 5000 words a day to
finish my book. I suspect the myths of creativity are invented
because the truth of hard work is too boring!
