Note the change in room and building.

Since I haven't seen any objections, I'm asking Devon to book the same room for next year.

I wrote a little AppleScript to generate the list of dates.

________________________________


repeat with monthNumber from 2 to 12

-- start with the first of Feb through Dec

set firstString to (monthNumber as string) & "/1/2018"

set firstTime to date firstString

-- we want the last Tuesday (which is a 3) of the previous month

-- so subtract 7 days if the first is a Tues, and 1 day if a Wed

-- which means the math is as follows

log firstTime - ((((3 + (weekday of firstTime)) mod 7) + 1) * days)

end repeat
