VASCM: Tomorrow's Meeting on Soil Health at Clos de la Tech - Please Read Details - Bring Yourself a Chair and a Glass

[Kevin Monahan]

Hi Mary,

Here is the link to the presentation video at Clos de la Tech.

Nothing fancy. It would take to much time to try  and incorporate the actual powerpoint.
Just dealing with a hour plus video on Youtube is a lot of work as is. The audio is clear and
the slides are clear enough, particularly when selecting the 720P Full Screen option.
