Next Philosophy of Physics Reading Group Meeting: 25 Nov.

[Fletcher, Samuel]

Dear Colleagues,

This is just a reminder that we'll be meeting tomorrow at the usual 
time.  Over the weekend I fell ill and am still recovering, so there's a 
chance I won't be able to attend, in which case I'll appoint someone 
else to administer the vote on which topic to cover in the next meeting 
on 16 Dec.

Best,
~Sam
