Hi Everyone,
Prof. Morelli asked me to forward this: Jimmy Wales, the founder of
Wikipedia will be speaking at University of Hartford next Wednesday (11/15)
at 7:30. He's a pretty amazing guy - he's basically responsible for creating
probably the most extensive encyclopedia ever written and he has a lot of
far-reaching ideas on the future of information. Its free, but you have to
call the UHa box office for tickets.
