Ottawa Skeptics aims to promote the use of the scientific method, critical thinking and rational thought in our community. Ottawa Skeptics supports high standards of scientific integrity, academic freedom and the free exchange of ideas. We have one bias: Science is the best method for determining objective truth.

We invite everyone to visit our web forum at http://www.ottawaskeptics.org/ ,
and listen to our weekly podcast, The Reality Check, available through iTunes or directly from http://feeds.feedburner.com/therealitycheck/

As usual, after the lecture we will then retire to the nearby pub Quinn's. Read more
