Please join us in  person -- reviewing how one small school is working 
through extraordinary deployment challenges, attempting OLPC learning 
approaches in the face of some almost insurmountable odds, thanks to 
Nancie's small and overstretched but dedicated volunteer team:

     Sunday February 7
     12 NOON, Boston Time/EST
     (NOT our usual 4PM time, so volunteers can call in from Vietnam!)

     1 Cambridge Center
     Cambridge, MA  02142

All Welcome, but RSVP REQUIRED (holt @ laptop.org and nanciesevers @ 
gmail.com).  You will have the choice of attending in person or by 
telephone -- with PowerPoint/PDF provided in advance and our US phone 
number (free if you have a full Skype account) for conference-call 
access to live Q&A.  Sorry OLPC Radio's tower isn't fully erected yet 
for worldwide live public broadcasts just yet, but stay tuned...

Bring Vietnamese Food!!!
