Skeptics in the Pub is a free event where critical thinkers of all stripes can get together to drink, socialize, and maybe accidentally learn something. It's totally open to the public.
The first one in March filled up fast, so get there promptly to get a good seat!
THIS MONTH'S GUEST SPEAKER:
Marc Abrahams!
Marc's full bio is here, but here's a taste:
Marc Abrahams is editor and co-founder of the science humor magazine Annals of Improbable Research (AIR) and its web site, www.improbable.com. He writes about research that makes people LAUGH, and then THINK.
Marc is the father and master of ceremonies of the Ig Nobel Prize Ceremony, honoring achievements that make people LAUGH, and then make THINK.
