WELCOME! Please follow these important audio instructions for the best webinar experience: • Using computer audio? Do NOT dial in by phone. • If you are NOT using computer audio, dial in as follows: Dial in: 512-400-4805 Passcode: 4625420# Trouble dialing in? Sometimes at the start of popular sessions it may take a few attempts to connect by phone (you get a “fast busy” signal). You can keep trying to dial in, or you can log out and log back in selecting computer audio instead. Questions or problems? Use the chat box in the lower left hand corner of the webinar window to ask questions. We will try to answer them as we go. Thanks for attending. We’ll be started in a few minutes.
