I spoke at the Osher Lifelong Learning Institute (OLLI) at North Carolina State University last week. As people were coming in you would think it was a “real” college class because the students were avoiding the first row of seats. Perhaps they were just all Baptists.
This was the third time I have presented “The History and Evolution of the Outhouse” to OLLI. My assumption was that a number of attendees had attended one of the previous presentations. So I had a Version 2 of the presentation prepared if this was the situation, but it wasn’t. These people had been on the waiting list to attend the previous presentations but had not been able to get into the class. So I went ahead and presented Version 1; but now I have a Version 2 which is 95% new material for a future presentation.
