Cathy,

That made my day, and yes, it would be fun to have a fitting deep, dark and stormy night for Unearth the Story.

Obviously the Connect & Collaborate event on Dec 4th is starting at 10:00 AM (not PM) @ the Library of Michigan, though a library lock-in would be fun... 

Apologies for the typo below.
