Extremist Understanding Research paper 2nd hour


As of May 6, we are running two days behind on our schedule.

It is not enough for me to modify the entire schedule; just be aware that we are not quite up to date. If we do catch up I will indicate that, otherwise plan to look two days previously for the current days schedule.

Thanks!
