Organizations Don't Tweet, People Do: Easter Break?
Seems like the dialog is just to rich to quit and a few have chimed in late hoping to join the fun. However as many more are likely heading into some family holiday time, so how about we pause questions until next week (give folks a chance to catch up or catch their breath) where we can then move to finish the book together.
We could post on Tuesday (26-35) and have a final set of questions on Thursday (36-45). Of course you read "we" - so leave question ideas with chapter reference in the comments section as you roll along.
What say you?
