Listener Questions
On this episode:
- How do you stay informed about shortages, new technologies, etc. Aside from attending NCECA, what magazines do you subscribe to? What organizations do you feel are valuable to invest in? For me, I get ICAN periodicals, but they don’t cover stuff as much as I’d like sometimes. For example, why did the Custer Feldspar mine shut down so suddenly? What are the benefits of using G200EU vs. Mahavir, chemically? I don’t need an answer to that specific question, but more an idea of where that conversation may be taking place. Does that make sense? @jelo.designs
