I’m at UW Madison right now…after the meeting ends at 6, any recommendations for an impromptu Pharyngula gathering? Shall me just meet in the ratskeller in the nearby student union? I’ll be there anyway, maybe I can haul in a few other notorious people.
Decision made! Gather at State Street Brats, Ratskeller (again…organizers are gathering there) sometime after 6.

I think the body-snatchers got them all.
Have fun!

Thank you PZ for that great talk you gave today! I never thought I’d see the day when I’d be able to hear you speak in person, and when you sat next to me at lunch I was completely speechless. I was the speechless guy sitting to your left.

I’ve got two kids going to UW Madison. Do you ever show up there when I’m in town? No!

The speechless guy with the awesome sweater, you evil little thing. I was one of the two youngins at the table. In the Sagan shirt.
I second ratskeller. It is probably the best chance for an environment quiet enough for conversation.
PZ Myers says
You guys…why don’t you tell me who you are?
Glen Davidson says
I would have, but I was the missing guy.

Ha, youngins? I suppose that’s better than saying we’re the two law students at the table.
Also, lunch with PZ was damn cool.
PZ Myers says
Disgusting stories about mayonnaise in the beard to follow, I’m sure.
Woo_Monster says
It was actually mustard on the crocoduck tie.

Because I’m an anti-social introvert? What to say? If it had been warmer you would have seen the Pharyngula/ squid t-shirt I was wearing.
Next time!

Woo_Monster #4 – I keep look at Carl Sagan, and thinking he kind of looked, ah, transcendental.
Woo_Monster says
Look again at that dot. That’s here. That’s home.

I watched every episode of Cosmos when it first aired back in the 1970s. He was validating what I believed, then it was time for Sunday school…
