Letterpress Printing Workshop -- Set Type, Pull Prints
Hands-on letterpress session. Pick individual lead type from the case, compose a line, lock it in the chase, ink the form, and pull a print. You'll leave with a hand-printed broadside. Tip: Set type mirror-image, left to right becomes right to left. The first time everyone gets it backwards. That's why we call it 'mind your p's and q's' -- they're mirror images in the type case.
Relativity Explained -- Thought Experiments for Everyone
Two-hour session. No equations (well, one equation). I'll explain special and general relativity using the same thought experiments I used to discover them. Riding a beam of light. Trains and lightning strikes. Falling elevators. If you can imagine it, you can understand it. Tip: Relativity is not abstract. Your GPS uses it. Without relativistic corrections, your navigation would be off by 10 kilometers per day.
Plains Horseback Riding -- Bareback & War Pony
Bareback riding on the open plains. No saddle, no stirrups -- just you and the horse. The Lakota were among the finest horsemen on Earth. Knee signals, voice commands, shooting from horseback. Tip: The horse must trust you before it will carry you into danger. Earn the trust first.

Arabian horse riding, hit-and-run tactics, desert warfare. At Hattin I cut the Crusaders off from water and let the sun finish the job. Tip: In the desert, water is strategy. Control the wells, control the battle.
Plains Survival & Tracking Workshop
Reading tracks, finding water on the open plains, building shelter from materials at hand, fire making. My people lived on these plains for thousands of years without a single building.
