| Re: Final A.I Winter Event - Support vector machines and T-shirts! (03/21/2013 6:30pm) |
Good news everyone! Chariot Solutions saved my pocket book and sponsored $250 of our t-shirts. Two of you have already paid the $25 for t-shirts, and I am glad to refund you, but I am still paying for some of the cost out of pocket, and donations are VERY welcome at https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_s-xclick&hosted_button_id=55WLDWB265FH8 So, if you show up Thursday, you will get a t-shirt, although we might run out. I will make sure to reserve t-shirts for those who donate and those that have come to A.I. Winter all six times. See you for SVMs and our final last hooray Thursday night. Yours, Trevor -- Trevor Lalish-Menagh trev@trevreport.org http://trevmex.com Sent from phone, please excuse typos.
