1. No Quiz.
2. Announcement: Dear Class, a colleague of mine will be running the first hour of class today. As you know, my son was sick on Friday. We ended up taking him to Urgent Care with a serious, infectious virus. Then my wife and I caught the same virus. I was too sick to come into class today, and I also need to protect you from the virus. It's contagious for three days. I'll be better by Friday and not contagious, so I'll see you then. What a weekend!
2. Class Today: Since we are the lab today we will work on our computers for one hour. For the second hour of class you will be dismissed early; however, some of you may want to be take the opportunity to catch up on any missing class work. In general, the most important tasks for catch-up would be to finish your blog (due today!) if you haven't, and to set up your Twitter account.
3. Class Activity: I was very impressed last week in our class discussion when you explained the information in several graphs from our text Climate Casino. Summarizing visual information is an important skill that involves what's called quantitative reasoning, and it goes hand in hand with your ability to summarize the science of climate change. So for today's lab, I'd like you to write an in-class blog that compares and contrasts TWO of the graphs from our text. Follow the instructions below. When you are finished (minimum 200 words) you may be dismissed from class (just please tell my colleague).
