Rebel with a Clause Sign-up

We had our honeymoon in Montreal. We love Canada. I have made a note to let you know, but the most reliable way to get notifications is through our mailing list. I am more fallible than the mailing list. www.rebelwithaclause.com/signup

Thank you so much for this! I'm afraid we aren't doing library screenings yet, but we are working on theaters in Canada. If you have a favorite local arthouse cinema, a patron request is sometimes all it takes to get a screening organized. We love Canada. Our honeymoon was in Canada!

Thank you so much, Elizabeth!

I like "grammar nerd"! I also like that "nerd" rhymes with both "bird" and "word," plus I enjoy the fact that many bird nerds are word nerds.

Thank you, Nancy!

Thank you so much, Harvey. 😊

We screened it remotely in the UK this year. Working on plans for more, including in-person events, but we are focusing most of our time on North America at the moment, for practical reasons. (We both have immediate family in Europe, so we have plenty of reasons to go!)

Thank you. Using math correctly in reporting is in fact of great interest to me. (And of great importance to the public.)
