That might suit a general audience quite well, but I'm expecting a
reasonable response just from the university population so something on
campus makes sense for that.  I think there would have to be reasonable
evidence of an off-campus audience to justify an off-campus site.  But
that raises two other issues:  (i) should the talk be during the day or
in the evening (uni audience would again be best served during the day,
but I'm thinking a more general audience would work better early
evening);  (ii) if there is a large enough general-audience interest, it
might be possible to organise more than one talk.

Input welcome.

Paul
