We are an informal group of scientific skeptics who promote critical thinking, reason, and empirical evidence, advocating for the scientific method to evaluate claims while opposing pseudoscience, superstition, and anecdotal evidence. We will get together for a social event to say hello to people we may have only met on-line, to reconnect with some long-time acquaintances, and to meet new people who may be interested in skepticism. We will not be having a presentation or a speaker, just a chance to sit down and have a meal and/or a beverage and a conversation with a pleasant group of fellow skeptics. (Monthly on-line Zoom meetings will continue as usual, on the third Friday of every month). Our previous venue, Prenup Pub, has closed, so we will meet this month at a **new location**, The Frog: A Firkin Pub, 4854 Yonge St, North York, ON M2N 5N2. Google Maps says it is about a 3-minute walk (200 m) from Sheppard-Yonge subway station, north of Sheppard, on the west side of Yonge. Food and beverages are available from the menu. Foods include a full menu from soups, salads, and appetizers to burgers, sandwiches, entrées and dessert. The beverage menu includes about16 different beers on tap, many bottled beers, ciders, seltzers, and coolers, as well as a selection of wines, various cocktails, and non-alcoholic drinks. When you arrive, just ask where the "Skeptics" are. If you plan on joining us, please register so we can estimate the number of attendees.
