[nesfa-reading-group] “The King of Elfland’s Daughter”: Reading Group on 2/2/2024

[David G. Grubbs]

I'm hoping that the Meetup message I just received indicates that Louis is
active and will start the meeting.

Louis, if that is true, we need the Zoom server connection info.

If Louis doesn't respond to this, I'll do something tomorrow -- that is,
I'll talk to Wes and one of us will send out connection info tomorrow
during the day and start the server tomorrow evening.
