research meetings for the uninformed

I went to a research meeting and understood about 5 minutes of it. As Warrick pointed out, that's 8%. Maybe next week it will be 10%, by the time I leave I could possibly get to 80%. I have a goal.

I am registered with the uni now. Have a desk and internet access(obviously) and a stack of things to read including a PhD thesis. Fun times.

Weird note for the dance crowd. The syllabus here is wacky. Their gold is our advanced/bronze class, I mean gold just learnt slingshot in jive and natural turn, though they do do this cool reverse natural top thing and something called a wiggle.
