The Lecture, An Update

My lecture at the New College of Florida last evening went quite well. I cannot even thank them and particularly Natalie Paul enough for pulling the whole thing off. Seventy-five people or so attended--10 percent of the student body as Paul noted--and I have to say that the student body is very smart, not only on mental health issues but in general.

I'll get into more of what I talked about after I get back to Seattle late on Thursday, but for now my time clock is somewhere between East Coast and West Coast times and I need to get some rest.

One fun moment during the Q&A: I invented a new DSMable disorder as I was stammering out an answer to a question in a very jet-lagged state. "Writer Talking Disorder," or WTD. OK, maybe you had to be there.

I doubt that my comptuer access will be very good between tomorrow morning and Thursday night, so bear with me in the meantime.
