Going to Dragon-Con! And Skeptrack! (kinda)
So the best I could do was clearing my schedule for Thursday and Friday. Maybe I will be able to spend a little time Saturday, but we’ll have to see. It’s amazing how Your calendar seems to fill up right at the time that You want to do something, isn’t it?
Anyway, I am very happy to be going to Atlanta, even for a couple of days. I’m especially glad to be attending A Full Moon for Cancer Thursday night! It is a Star Party in memory of Jeff Medkeff and benefit for the American Cancer Society. The Star Party will be lead by Doctors Phil Plait and Pamela Gay! I expect it to be a lot of fun.
Friday, I plan on attending several panels at Skeptrack, but I think I am most interested in the presentation on skeptical parenting! Go figure, eh? If time permits, I hope to sit down with Kylie Sturgess and the rest of the Skeptic Zone folks and maybe do a short interview with them about Us and what we are planning here in the US over the next couple of years.
In fact, my one regret will be missing out on their Mystery Investigators Children’s Show presentation. They have a developed kids outreach program and I would like to learn what I can from them and try to borrow some of their methods. Alas, I can’t stay all weekend long and I will miss it.
Still glad to go and spread the Skeptikids message: Science is a Verb!
