Re: Indiana Religious Freedom Bill

The problem with livestreaming was that our A/V folks didn't have a video board that had enough ports to capture HDMI or composite. We hope to remedy that for next...

If anyone at R2OC has any complaints or suggestions regarding the use of the UAS's, please post them here or PM me. I either want this to be really good, or we shouldn't...

Re: IRI Rule Changes
