Ralph,

My Apologies, I was driving to Austin Saturday morning and had full intention to start the zoom meeting and get with the club to have someone on that end monitoring the zoom. I was delayed on my drive and it slipped my mind. We did have that discussion last month about adding a second to the zoom account. I will keep you posted on future developments.

Greetings all,

I really wanted to participate in today's topic but did not want to leave my wife alone very long since she is recovering from a stroke.  

So, I signed in to ZOOM at 0900.

At 0920 I sent a text to see if anyone could open ZOOM on your end.  I gave up at 0940

I suggest the club either dedicate 2 people to open ZOOM for each meeting (to allow for backup coverage) or stop using it altogether.  It is a great tool allowing remote access to meetings but looks very bad for the club to leave people hanging.

One man's opinion.
