[nabs-l] Classes start Wednesday.

[Joshua Lester]

Compressed video is as follows.
The instructor is on another campus, but is connected to us, by a computer.
They have a setup, where they can hear us, and see us, and we can see,
and hear them, via computer, but it isn't Skype.
You also have to use the TV in order to work it, and there's a special
button, on the remote, that you have to push, in order to get the
instructor's attention, in the classroom, if you want to ask a
question, or comment on something.
It's complecated, and that's why I hate it.
Blessings, Joshua
