Draft of the blog post is here.

Includes meta data in the draft.

Slide deck for Jenifer's presentation is linked in the draft, but if you need the files for uploading to our website, here they are: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1voabYZd8c0u_V3i8EdkHngzrQLHQB8vZ/view?usp=sharing

Thanks Jessica. I just gave it a quick look. It's good, clean, gets the points across, but in brutal honesty, I have to say it's too wordy for me.

I highlighted a few examples (and I see you're addressing them), but can you take a swing at dumbing it down for people like me and the 99% of readers that are reading too quickly? Shorter sentences, shorter paragraphs, smaller words, etc?

I think I'm particularly sensitive to this for better or worse. I'm always bugging everybody to do this (and of course, I'm no saint either).

Ok. Here's round 2 - punchier, shorter, more bullets, plain language

Older draft of the document is at the end of the Google doc. I didn't edit the original, just scrapped it for the most part.

@mlissner and @jeniferw thoughts?

OK, made some more suggestions. It's definitely more readable, but there's a lot of bold in there. ChatGPT gave me a lot of bold when I asked it to dumb this down. Maybe remove some of that, and I think we're on our way?
