thanks again for sharing the slideshow (and thanks to Catherine for figuring out how we can make it available on this blog!).  i just watched it and found it really illuminating.  i had to laugh as earlier today I was reviewing some of our project materials and trying to think about a better way to write them so that they aren't so wonky, jargony...or at least how to make them more user friendly and easy to absorb.   i think for those of us who work in the field of conservation it can be a bit easy to include terms that seem to be in general use when they really aren't (to wit: biodiversity, open space).   the slideshow was a good reminder and done in a fun way.  thanks again!
