Christchurch readers might like to know that I’m talking at the local Skeptics in the pub meet up next Tuesday evening (23 March) — working title is Sceptics, skeptics and septicsâ„¢. Should be a lively evening… 😉 Meet at The Twisted Hop from 5-30pm, talk begins at 6pm, probably over the road at CPIT before returning to the pub. Keep an eye on the Skeptics MeetUp page for final details.
[â„¢ as coined by Stoat, headline by David Byrne.]
Having just announced this event, I was informed about a second event happening the following day.
If you can’t make this day, or are interested in more, check out Hot Topic – Are We Being Climate Smart?. There’s a number of speakers and all are speaking on topic, but from differing view points. Some from the city management, some from business opportunities.
I wonder, Gareth, did you know about this event?
I did indeed — one of the speakers is a friend — but thanks for drawing it to everyone’s attention. I would have attended, too, had not the skeptics talk been the night before, and my talk at the opening of the Tree Crops Association conference the following evening.
Heh… You could just move into town for the week.
Tough choices indeed. I'm going for the wednesday evening…. I hope you have a good time in the pub.
Say hi to Rhys for me: we were at college together many, many moons ago. Both greybeards now, though he actually has the beard to prove it… 😀
