Apologies, but it seems that when one cuts and pastes information, links
won't transfer.  So, I'm forwarding the actual notice from state government.
The best way with a computer or smart phone to join a Zoom meeting is by
clicking on the meeting link.  In the e-mail below, it's displayed as "Town
Hall."  This threw me a bit because I'm used to seeing the actual web
address for a Zoom meeting.  The state apparently tried to be fancy, but
they threw this dumb old country boy for a loop.  Now you know the rest of
the story.
