TEDxNASA Attendance is a Work Activity at LaRC

NASA LaRC Internal Email: TEDxNASA: You’re Invited!
“As a reminder, the TEDxNASA event is considered a work activity. Civil servants may charge up to 8 hours to their usual WBS to attend. Contract employees must obtain their supervisor’s approval. Additional information on how to volunteer or register to attend the event is provided below. But you must act quickly – sign-up ends Thursday night.”
Keith’s note: I have yet to hear back from LaRC PAO on my fourth simple request as to how much this event will cost and how much NASA is paying. Meanwhile they keep moving the ticket deadline back. This morning they twittered “Last day to register for TEDxNASA!” Now LaRC management says that tomorrow night is the deadline. I guess they are trying to fill some empty seats.
But wait, another Tweet by the organizers a moment ago says “Tickets now available until tomorrow at noon! “. Hmm .. Tomorrow “night” is different than “tomorrow at noon”. More confusion.
