An Addition To My February 4, 2021 Post About Videoconferencing: Tips For Using Zoom For Remote Mediations.
In what could have been an Abbott and Costello routine, had those comedians been born into the Age of the Internet and Zoom, a Texas judge and a hapless attorney had to grapple with the vagaries of a cat filter during a court call. So now we have one more tip for our profession's use of videoconferencing: beware the use of cat filters.
Here's a link to the viral video demonstrating the infelicitous peril of feline interference:
Above: Sketch of Edward Lear at age 73 1/2 and his cat Foss, age 16.
According to Wikipedia, Foss is also mentioned in Lear's poem "How Pleasant to Know Mr Lear":
He has many friends, lay men and clerical,
Old Foss is the name of his cat;
His body is perfectly spherical,
He weareth a runcible hat.
