Here is part 2 of the audio recording of Calvert’s July 16, 2006 presentation at Alford Library. It starts after the five minute break and lasts until the end of the meeting.

Calvert Part 2

Once again I thank Harry Gregory for making this audio possible, and I also recommend headphones.

This is in m4a format as well. If you’d like me to upload an mp3 version to download, please leave a message in comments and I’ll get it up here as soon as I can.

I’d really like to thank Harry Gregory, a retired school teacher, a member of KCFS, and a very nice man for making the audio possible. We need more like him.

I’ll post Part 2 of the meeting as soon as I get it.

I should note that there is a very strange noise about 5 minutes in to part 1.2. That noise is that of a speeding airplane which Calvert felt necessary to add to his September 11 slide.

The audio is generally a bit difficult to hear clearly, so I recommend headphones.

I’m working on getting an embedded player on here.

Thanks to Bascule for hooking me up with the free podcast service.

I held the door open for him when he walked up because he had a dolly with many bags on it and carrying another one – his hands were full. Before the meeting, he asked me to help him move the table his projector was on so the projected screen would be bigger. Then he asked me to go find him some tape to use because one of the cables he was using had screws in it, but no holes were there to be filled by them. I joked, “Well, that certainly is a bad design,” and then I went and got him some tape from this incredibly nice librarian. I was more than happy to help. I’m always happy to help.
