Oh, happy news: the American Arachnology Society meetings were cancelled this summer, but they’re going ahead with the 2020 AAS Virtual Summer Symposium on 25-29 June. I can gladly do that! I’m an expert at sitting on my butt in my office staring at a screen!
It’s free if you happen to be a member of the AAS. Non-members can attend for the cost of a $10 donation to the American Arachnological Society.
I’m quite happy for everyone concerned, but…
it’s not a donation, it’s an attendance fee. Donations are gratuities.

Churches, charities and, now apparently the American Arachnology Society seem to be a bit confused about this.
I am now being annoyed by writers, many of whom should know better, calling things like a 500 year flood or a pandemic a “black swan” event.
