hey, hey. what are you talking about? you didn't know a normal lecture accompanied by slides would last around 45 minutes? what was your estimate? surely you aren't asking me to follow anirban's example in this? :-) and in any case, why didn't you tell me to wrap it up in half an hour or so, when you saw time was short? i would have sincerely tried, though it wouldn't have been doing any sort of justice to the subject. what i meant when i refused to do the installation talk was that two talks one after the other would surely require me to stand on the podium for nearly an hour and a half. i mean, was 45 minutes an unnatural / unexpected length for a short lecture? i find your comment a bit irresponsible. and if you want to write about the ranjabati thing on the list, i think you had better inform all listers first, of the context. not all know what's been going on. - t. -- cogito, ergo es. -- To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the body "unsubscribe ilug-cal" and an empty subject line.
