Yes, a third one. Northwest Free-thought Alliance Conference is taking place on 30 March-1 April in Renton, Washington, just south of Seattle. Fly into Sea-Tac, it’s not that far. Richard Dawkins is speaking at this one, too — he does get around — as well as Anu Garg, who gave an excellent talk last time I heard him.
All right, divvy it up. Southerners and East Coasters, go to Rock Beyond Belief; Upper Midwest, go to our Midwest Science of Origins Conference; West Coasters, head up to the Northwest Free-thought Alliance.
Man, I remember when godless conferences were scarce, and you’d have a choice of a couple of them every year; now you’ve got a couple of them on the same day.
Oh of course, Richard Dawkins will speak at this one. This isn’t the ONE I can go to. Damn.
Or everyone could go to a conference in another place and swap house-sitting duties.
Sadly I can’t make any of them. You will find this perhaps a bit funny PZ, but I have to be in Morris, MN on Sunday! Not exactly a hotbed for travel destinations!
Ack. I’m already booked for Comicon in Seattle, with Norwescon the weekend after (best way to spend Easter: at a science fiction and fantasy convention!)
I’m actually here in the Seattle area, but I’m going to be at the track all weekend.
Richard Dawkins is also speaking in Bellevue on April 1 with Sean Faircloth and Elisabeth Cornwell. 3:30 p.m. Details at RDF.
Being a Dawkins groupie is expensive.
I’ll be attending both of Dawkins’s talks in Washington. Too much of a good thing?
My favorite husband and I will be tabling in the lobby at the NW Freethought convention. Come say hi if y’all want to!
You know you’re getting old when all weekends start to blur together.
