That was speak to a live audience in person. During the past 1 \u00bd years my presentations have been delivered via Zoom. However, there were some challenges with the live presentation. The facility in which I spoke (Brookdale Retirement Community) was older and did not have the technology that more modern facilities have. They had a microphone and that was it. When I asked if they had a screen, they were not sure. Luckily, they found one, but it was small. It was a good thing I had brought my own video projector and sound system just in case it was needed. It was needed. There is a reason I arrive 30-45 minutes prior to the start of a presentation. I did get everything hooked up and the presentation on the <em>History and Evolution of the Outhouse<\/em> went off without a hitch. I had my fingers crossed. The audience was very receptive and appreciative.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"559\" height=\"251\" src=\"https:\/\/thekeynotepresenter.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/brookdale.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1019\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thekeynotepresenter.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/brookdale.jpg 559w, https:\/\/thekeynotepresenter.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/brookdale-300x135.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 559px) 100vw, 559px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I did something yesterday I have not done in over a year.
