Updated the original post with the NLB-approved promo poster. Big thanks to Haz, Dave and Ava for helping out in the design.
Thanks for the encouragement! I don't consider myself young and energetic any more and that's precisely why I wanted to conducts such talk while I still can. Will definitely give the Sun its due place during the presentation as you can already see from the poster design! If the late afternoon sky on Friday is clear, we may conduct an impromptu Solar sidewalk session outside the library as a pre-talk warm-up session (pun intended).superiorstream wrote:Hi,Gary

@yltansg: Thanks! Will try to do Solar sidewalk sessions with it this weekend whenever the sky is clear. I think I need the Bishan group to protect me and precious cargo during such sessions.
@starfinder: Thanks! We will be having a nice mini singastro gathering that night. I will be showing some slides that will make even the veterans feel nostalgic.
