Quoting Larry Platzek (larryp@inow.com):
Michael Paoli, Dick and I had thought about asking Seth Schoen of EFF to speak at a balug meeting again. Just thought would bring it out to the admin list.
(Paragraphs below were written before I saw the word "again", being a bit short on sleep -- but I figure my post might be worthwhile, anyway.)
Seth is always a very good, thoughtful, thoroughly prepared speaker. I remember in particular one he gave regarding Trusted Computing / Palladium, which got praise from industry experts in the audience. He's very mild-mannered and quiet, but authoritative on subjects he's studied.
He's also vegetarian, so have Four Seas do something to help him out. ;->
