Today's DAI International Webinar: Bibliography

Took me a while to wrap my mind around the fact that time, in effect, may not necessarily linear! I am familiar with New York being an hour ahead of me (in Chicago) and San Francisco being two hours earlier, but the fact that todays's Webinar took place at one moment in time but was attended by people around the world anywhere from 7:00 AM this morning to 10:00 tonight and today as well as tomorrow freaks me out a little.

Here is a copy of the bibliography I created for the event, which is also posted on my now inactive http://mhorvichcares.blogspot.com.
