      • The consensus among the group is that “you only get one shot” would be a good choice; questions included in the article could be used during our event for discussion

    • Event title and description:
      • Description will go out on 11/28. The event will not be recorded.
      • We will have a crowdsourced Q&A/discussion document/artifact similar to the last event. We could use  questions from the article in the document. The questions could be included in the event announcement.  Folks can add responses in the document ahead of time or during the event. Questions are in the appendix of the article.
      • We will include an easy warm-up question. We could include a Zoom poll.
      • The group came up with 4 questions from the list of 16 questions from the article. We modified the questions to best suit our discussion.
