Had enough of astrologers, psychics, homeopaths, and spirit channelers? Yearning to talk with someone rational for awhile? Meetup with other local skeptics for some refreshing and sane conversation.

To keep the meetups friendly we will stay away from controversial topics. The forbidden topics are religion, politics and global warming.
