The talk is great, Martha.
It really does justice to Millie - it conjures the Millie that I knew, from
acres of correspondence, her poetry and art, and one meeting - not only because
it is so well assembled, but because it is so well assembled by you. And that
means, I imagine, a huge effort to keep rage in check and to consciously pare
down the very long list of Millie's accomplishments to the size of a series of
exemplars (which nonetheless point to, imply, everything else) within a
reasonably sized talk. And hence it emphasises, and quite properly
so, the distinctness of your written voice - kind, amused, interested, engaged
- but always measured and elegant, even when the most painful subjects are
under consideration.
Does a video exist? If so you should consider posting it.
warmest wishes

My talk about Millie's work and her thoughts about her work is linked at
http://sporkworld.tumblr.com/
where I also have some brief posts about E-poetry 2011 at Buffalo.
The talk itself with links to other works Millie made which she liked is posted
on the Sporkworld Community Blog at
http://www.sporkworld.org//index.php
Not linked are Sandy Baldwin's and Stephanie Strickland's lovely statements
about Millie's presence in the E-poetry world.
Enjoy,
Martha
