This was totally fantastic, seriously. Great moderation, and so quick-moving. And thank you, thank you to Mr. McCarthy for taking the time to answer our questions. This has been tremendously helpful!
I wish I had suggestions for next time, but I really don't. I think this was really well done. I think my only opinion has to do with the poll--seeing as there's a split between the two options, perhaps having a themed chat for the first half hour and then opening the chat for general questions later might be a good compromise!
Thanks for the lovely comments, everyone! I know we didn't get to every question, but it looks like I managed about one a minute, so hopefully lots of you got answers you were looking for. I think we'll definitely be doing this again in the future with other agents and maybe some specifically themed chats, so keep an eye out for DGLM Chat Stew Number Two!
