Evan's Thoughts

Now here is an article for me.... I will read it later :)
Fortune Magazine's Anne Fisher on Procrastinating

Guest Lecture

I had an awesome experience this evening. I was invited to guest lecture in a class for science students at McGill University.

What surprised me the most, was the amount of time required to prepare a 2 hour talk.

Further to an observation by one of the students, I realize that one of the analogies I used is incorrect. I had talked about goldfish being limited in size by the size of the environment. Technically, this is true. However, from the research I have done, it seems the maximum size is two feet. The image I used showed a much larger fish - it was likely koi and not a goldfish. My bad.

I enjoyed hearing about the student's projects.

In the event any of the students in attendance read this, I would welcome any feedback or topic suggestions for future talks. In consideration for your time, I will be giving a pair of movie tickets to one random respondant. Please include your mailing address in your feedback email if you would like to receive the tickets.

Everyone can use some help in looking better

I found this to be an interesting read that I have passed on to some people about how to brush up your corporate image.

From The Montreal Gazette

I don't know how long the Gazette article will be available - if you can't find it let me know I will see if I still have my newspaper clipping .
