<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"">This week’s BrlChat topic is “Structured discovery: what is it, how does one implement it, and what are the benefits?” I hope you will bring your ideas and questions to Twitter
this Thursday at 9pm eastern. Also, if you know any cane travel instructors, please invite them to join the conversation. .<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"">FYI: Starting in March, BrlChat will only occur two times a month on the 2<sup>nd</sup> and 4<sup>th</sup> Thursday of each month. The first BrlChat of March will be on the
14th. If someone else is willing to step up and moderate, we can stick to an every Thursday schedule. Over the next few months my schedule is such that I cannot moderate every Thursday. If you’re interested in moderating, please be in touch.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
