SkeptiCamp New York City is Coming!
SkeptiCamp arrives at the Big Apple! Come, share that apple of knowledge with us!
The web site and registration for SkeptiCamp NYC 2009 is now open (and, we apologize for the delays). It is taking place December 6th, 2009 From 10:00 AM to 4:00 PM At Shetler Studios: 244 W 54th St., New York, NY You must register in advance, to attend, and space is limited. So, if you want to get in, register as soon as you can! It's like a science conference, except that the content is provided by the attendees themselves! Anyone who can be in the New York City area, at the given date and time is invited to join and... perhaps even present something for discussion! It will cost $15.00 to attend, because there are some expenses we have to cover. New York is not, exactly, a cheap city. (But, at least you will get to take home a T-shirt!) General SkeptiCamp Web Site More information about SkeptiCamp, in general, can be found here: http://www.skepticamp.org/wiki/Main_Page The NYC-Specific Web Site The official web site, for NYC, is here: http://www.skepticampnyc.org/ Register to attend here: http://www.skepticampnyc.org/skcamp09reg.html If you would like to be a presenter, please read this: http://www.skepticampnyc.org/PresenterGuide.aspx Hope some of you can join us! |

For most folks, it seems most likely, though it does depend on taste and definitions of the word "hot" (and even "girl") one is using.
Did you think the girls at NECSS were "hot"? It might be a crowd of similar quality, though not nearly as much quantity. Of course, fewer folks in the room means more opportunities to "get to know each other". |

I won't be making this, but I will certainly be at NECSS II, assuming there is one.

I notice you only have three proposals so far. I'm surprized.

We are now bursting at the seams with, like, 51 registrants!
Whoa! The registration system is now closing down. There is no more room in the room. |
