The weekend of August 25th and 26th is the World Union of Egoists Conference at a prominent hotel in Baltimore, MD. Here we get to listen in to a presentation during the first night before dinner and the main speakers. You will find that the announced preprandial speaker unfortunately was not able to give their talk, so the master of ceremonies Kevin I. Slaughter and an attendee named Tervor gave an impromptu reading of a few egoist themed poems and light banter during what is traditionally a social hour.
