Would we ever be able to share @SDPLPauline: 's presenting desktop PC screen (up front) to a live Zoom and/or YouTube live feed or something in the future? I know how to set those up if we want to go those routes. Then fellow group members who've moved away eg @Vahidmasrour: ..can still drop in virtually! Eh @ @RightCowLeftCoast: ? -From Peter {a.k.a.
