I noticed two people, seated near me, had fingers in their ears. Not because they disagreed with what was being said, but to avoid the strain of trying to intelligibly hear what was being said. The audio system is terrible.
ReplyDeleteI noticed that another presenter, Scott Roberts, brings his own Bose Linear Array audio system. He told me, because the Recreation Center Audio System is so bad. He said his portable Bose costs $4,000.
Divided by 300 people, that would be $13 per person. And the system would last for many years, and could moved to any Recreation Center room/event.
The Bose is designed for high quality music, live instruments and vocals. Less expensive, but equally clear, systems are available, as well.
It occurs to me that if 300 people cannot find a solution that provides an enjoyable, clear, transparent sound, environment, at the Recreation Center, then what chance is there for millions in Israel and Palestine to provide for a enjoyable, clear, transparent, environment?
For me, this is not only about sound in the Recreation Center, but using technology, which is exponentially advancing, to create enjoyable, peaceful environments, in a place called "The Villages" and a place called "The Earth".

ReplyDeleteIra,
ReplyDeleteNow it appears, one can delete a post, after another post has been entered. Perhaps my previous observational error. Nevertheless, deletion and re-entering, with typos corrected, can destroy the chronological order. IMHO, an in place 'edit post' would be best.
Yes, preview allows in place editing, but the older I get, the more typos I make, even after a preview, LOL.
My vote goes for ability to edit any of my posts, even after entry, with perhaps 'display edit history' button, for forensic purposes.
BTW, this blog, as you have mentioned several times, is very sparsely used. I continue to believe the real time posting of blog entries during the presentation, from a cell phone, to a projected window that the presenter controls, would provide the leverage to cause people to use the blog facility you have kindly provided. That would require Bob to modify his hammer crashing (LOL), cell phone warning to only apply to turning off the cell phone ringer. Even without a displayable real time blog entry, the cell phone can be useful for googling, and note taking, during the presentation.
