In order to access these live webcasts, your computer must be running
Windows or Virtual Windows, and it must be running Internet Explorer
version 6.  You will need speakers in order to hear the presenters.
Because this is a broadcast of a presentation at a conference, the
presenter will be interacting with the audience in Boulder and will not be
interacting with the Internet audience.
(We do not expect to be able to caption these events.)
