The critical thinking meeting season is about to kick off, and the first big one in the US is NECSS: The Northeast Conference for Science and Skepticism. It's from April 9 - 10 in New York City, and has a pretty cool list of speakers. I'm honored to be giving the keynote address, and there are lots of fun extracurricular activities planned as well.
