Fall Meeting Format Change

Meetings will be held online via Zoom this fall.
The first two months will be a bit of a trial, and if we have enough interest and people attending, we will continue after the first few months, but if they are poorly attended we will likely not hold any additional virtual meetings until we can meet in person.
