I won't be at the March meeting as I'll be in UTC+2 and (I hope) asleep, so I'll comment now. (I'll comment on the book later.) I'd be happy to see the July meeting moved, as I'm likely to be busy on the 4th; if we move July, also moving August allows 4 weeks
to read the August book, and 4 weeks for the September book if the September meeting is on the usual first Friday.</div>

<div class="x_gmail_default" style="font-family:tahoma,sans-serif">Our "first Friday of the month" Reading Group meeting in July falls on July 4th this year. Should we leave it there or postpone it a week to July 11th? Either one is fine with me.</div>

<div class="x_gmail_default" style="font-family:tahoma,sans-serif">Also, our Friday August 1st meeting falls on a day when I am likely to be traveling in Germany. We haven't chosen an August book yet, and I could always skip that meeting, but we could also
bump that meeting by a week.</div>
