  1. Does anyone know if these lectures will be recorded and later posted on the Internet for the rest of us to hear?

  2. History tells me they will be. Eastern Christian Publishing is usually pretty good about that.

  5. i wasn't able to find his talk on Catholic U's website - is there any way to post it over there to get the word out?

  6. A good question. I'm sure there's a campus events department who will know how to do that. It seems whenever events like this pop up you have to know someone who knows someone to have any idea it's happening.
