Thanks, Dave.  Duly noted.

I haven't seen any readings in Ted' course on the Gov. DeWine's phased-in re-opening.

I think I've read that normalization is being viewed as "Phases" - I think four phases were mentioned, mirroring what other States are doing.  I thought there was flexibility as to the details of each phase, at the discretion of the Governor (based on that State's data and situation.)  Have you heard any details as to Ohio's "Phase 1"?

As I read about the impact of the coronavirus (much of it through Ted Goertzel's wonderful  ILR course, the Sociology of the Coronavirus), I have noticed that the re-opening of our country is likely to happen in a  gradual fashion. This may mean that the most vulnerable people, i.e., those like us of advanced age with some underlying health issues, may continue to be quarantined for a longer period of time.

I am willing to host--I can set up a co-host  as well.

Most of the meeting will probably involve an extended check-in period to report what we are each doing during this shelter-in-place period .
