    “ I truly enjoyed the discussion. This is a well-educated group with a diverse mix of well thought out opinions. This group combines discussion of classic philosophic topics with the philosophy of day-to-day life. These discussions further define my own thoughts on matters, are endlessly fulfilling, and always have an interesting subject to broach. ”

    “ We always get a very interesting group of people at these meetings. What is so wonderful is that many members of the group encourage new people to participate in the discussions. While sometimes it can be daunting to engage in philosophical discussions, David has done an amazing job of putting together the best possible environment for friendly discussions. Thanks David for constructing DFW's best meetup group. ”
