One of my favourite programs is 'Classification Talks' and today was no exception. Paul Mitchell Banks did his Classification and 'oh my gosh' if you want to talk to someone who knows his way around academia ......Paul is your guy. He is very engaging....if you missed today's meeting, please get to know Paul.....he is a very, very interesting man.
And then there was Peter......he can tell a very 'mean' story about the Golden Spike that we give to all our Guest Speakers. Excellent job Peter.
AND because Paul at the very last minute said he would be our Guest Speaker and do his Classification, President Mike game him a pin showing that Paul is a 'Rotarian who is making a difference'.
