* Change of room for Mar. 11th ASBC North Shore Lecture *

For the Andrea Sharpe Social Thinking talk, the room in the West Van. Library has been changed to the MUSTO ROOM. (This matters because it is at the opposite end of the library and is smaller). There will still be room for those attending but do not expect a lot of "personal space". Thanks for your cooperation.

Andrea, Eva and Janet
