A Word About the Amount of Reading Required

Hello, everyone. :-)
I just thought I'd make this quick announcement based on a question I received recently.
With regard to how much of a book one must read before a meeting, I would say at least half of the book, though everyone should ideally read the whole book. Therefore, if you find yourself reading less than half of a book, consider the option of letting others sign up for a meeting. This is especially true when a waiting list starts growing.
And if you're thinking about reading Thomas L. Friedman's Hot, Flat, and Crowded for the April 2010 Organizer's Pick Discussion, you can still join the discussion if you read just the first half of the book. In fact, there's more original substance in the first half than the second half.
That's all for now. :-)
