Wow - thanks for organizing! How did it go?
Unfortunately, I missed this entirely. I didn't notice the email (I've now fixed
my mail filters, so I'll probably see future posts).
Next time, I suggest a bit more notice, coordinating with the library folks, having
something cool, like a special viewing of the Rosetta Disk at the CU Library Special
Collections department, and having them help get the word out.
You can't open the rosetta disk up without special permission, thus the idea for a
special event. Learn more about it e.g. here:
