It's that time of year again, Colorado skeptics. Time for the 3rd Annual Colorado SkeptiCamp, to be held Saturday May 9th, from 9:00 am to 7:00 pm at Tivoli Student Union in Denver.I attended last year's event, and thoroughly enjoyed myself. The talks were interesting, the speakers engaging, and folks were just plain friendly. Talks this year promise to be just as interesting - the preliminary schedule includes topics such as "Mindfulness, Meditation, and Skepticism," "Exposing PseudoAstronomy: Top Creationist Claims Examined," "Financial Skepticism- how they Madoff with Your Money" and "Quantum Nonsense, or, How I learned to Stop Worrying and Love My Mom."
Additionally, my Celebrity Boyfriend™ Dr. Phil Plait, President of the JREF and proprietor of Bad Astronomy will be in attendance giving a JREF update.* Denver benefits by its proximity to Boulder, in this case.
There are still 64 seats available at this event, so sign up quickly to reserve your spot.
*Since this will be my second time meeting him, he may have to graduate from being my Celebrity Boyfriend™ to being my Close Personal Friend™ so that I won't have to cross into some weird alternate dimension where I'm a creepy, creepy stalker.
