  2. On my way to Whitehorse, Yukon today. looking forward to my visit to Dechinta, which has been covered already in Yukon News. I'll do a fireside chat on Wednesday and a public lecture on Thursday.

    From the article: "The fireside chat and gender expression workshop [a third event I'm not involved in] require preregistration, which can be done by visiting www.dechinta.ca/oflandandwater."

    My keynote does not require registration.
