AARO - tALKING uP tHURSDAY
Thanks go to Don Hill for this contribution:
Meeting new people and improving one's acquaintanceships has -- to the astonishment of social scientists -- taken on a new life in the wired generation. It turns out that the more hi-tech we get, the more hi-touch we seem to need.
Put another way: The more time we spend with music devices in our ears, mobile telephones masking our faces, fingers on the keyboard clicking out e-mails, the more many of us feel a need to actually BE WITH other people.
Therefore AARO's Third Thursdays!
We had a great time on March 20 when at least 17 members, newcomers and prospects (see roster below *) showed up, sending waiters scurrying to add more table space. Block out time now on your calendar for AARO Third Thursday, April 17. Details will be announced in a few days.
