NERP will meet Monday 20210726 at Pumping Station One. It will be a hybrid Meetup The Jitsi link will be posted on the PS1 wiki at the end of this paragraph at ~7:00pm. We get under way at ~7:20pm. The video link from PS1 didn't work so great last time, but it'll be better this time.


Covid is still a thing. PS1 has lifted the covid protocols for occupying the space, so a mask is not required to enter the building. Nevertheless, some people consider it prudent to mask and distance in public venues. NERP respects and supports this position. NERP also assumes people got their shots. The ventilation in Electronics isn't great, but we'll do what we can to improve the fresh air exchange in the room. The quantity of people in a room can make a difference in the perceived comfort level of being in that space. If you plan on attending NERP in person please let others know by posting in the affirmative to the list at

The ventilation in Electronics isn't great, but we'll do what we can to improve the fresh air exchange in the room. The outdoor temperature is forecast to be around 85F at 7pm, so opening the windows enough to exchange some air will likely overpower the AC's ability to cool the room. We'll call it an experiment. The quantity of people in a room can make a difference in the perceived comfort level of being in that space.

Also, thoughts on the list about how to make the transition back to in-person meetings nicer will be helpful. Having the first post-covid NERP in the Park (in open air) seemed like a good idea a couple of weeks ago, but there was rain. Is NERP in the Park actually a good idea? Summer in Chicago is short!
