[QUOTE="James Carrabino, post: 112698, member: 16764"] Hi [USER=3352]@nisadee[/USER] this is a great question! I do not think it would be rude [I]as long as [/I]you ask for their permission to take notes first - they may be hoping to keep the conversation off the record! Just tell them that you are really interested in their work and would love to keep notes to jog your memory later on and if they give you their permission, great! If you have their permission, then as long as you act naturally in the conversation and keep your notes brief (so that there is not a long pause after every time they say something whilst you finish writing it down, for example) then taking notes could actually help demonstrate that you are attentive and engaged in the conversation. I hope that helps :) [/QUOTE]
