Really interesting and many personal questions found answers. For future events, I hope that technical problems will be less important... A great moment

After an initial brief period of technical difficulties with the audio; I thought the presentation was not only well -presented and interesting, but that it also offered a lot of useful and new information, as well. Thanks again for this well-received yearly event, Suzanne: keep up the good work!
