This way, Jaspar can show some courtesy and allow some members of the audience to express their ideas or expectations about the seminar. This will allow Jasper to know what they like in order to repeat it, what they did not like in order to avoid it, and what their expectations are in order to elaborate more on that audience's expectations.
