Excitement in Columbus

I have a few projects in the works recently, on a skeptical line, that I wanted to share with all 1.5 of my regular readers. :-)

SkeptiCamp - I have volunteered my time to help plan, organize and maybe even present at the Ohio SkeptiCamp this coming may. If all works out I will be doing a workshop on Critical Thinking and Advertising. I've attended two planning meetings so far, and things seem to be coming along nicely. Once we get closer to the date, and the registration page is up, I will link to it here, so that anyone who wants to attend can do so. (Please do!)


Central Ohioans for Rational Inquiry - CORI is the local Skeptic's group, and a nice bunch of people to boot. I've enjoyed both meetings that I've attended with them so far, and there is much to do. It's nice to be in a group that thinks the same way you do about so many things. I feel much more relaxed with them than I do with some of the other groups I see on a regular basis. Nice people. I'm looking forward to getting more involved.

There is also talk of putting together a podcast for CORI as well. I've volunteered my time for that, too. Hope I'm not spreading myself too thin. :-) I have offered to do music for the podcast, and present on health / medicine topics for the show. Not that I'm an expert, but I do know how to do research, and analyze a claim. So here's hoping that pans out as well.

I have some other posts rattling around in my brain, but those must wait for the moment. I have a basement cabinet to clean out, and had better take the opportunity while my son naps.

Have a good week!
