The inaugural meeting of Wisconsin Citizens for Science will be on 18 April at 2pm, in the Monona Public Library. You want to go. They are providing free cookies. Oh, yeah, and sciency information.
It’s times like these when I most regret not being able to fly or teleport. I’ll just have to have some cookies from the store in symbolic support of the meeting. Think of me fellow Pharyngulites and science types when you nosh those biscuits.
Davesays
Monona is quite a distance from the university. It’s about 7 miles from lakeshore dorms, and at least 6 from most students’ residences.
Deafboysays
Nice my A & P teacher is the president. He’s a damn good teacher.
Chris Msays
6-7 Miles? For people like me who live in Milwaukee (where a lot of UW grads end up working) it’s like a 2 hour drive. In the snow. Uphill both ways. Through the curtain of fire and brimstone that surrounds Madison.
I live about 45 miles away I’m going to try to make it. :D
Primal Curvesays
Hmmm… I also live in Milwaukee. I wonder if I’d be able to attend.
Patricksays
Won’t the fire and brimstone melt the snow?
NewEnglandBobsays
The fire and brimstone only melt the ice and snow within a few feet of the curtain.
By the way, a downhill-all-the-way SUV negates those both-ways-uphill drives.

Since Monona can’t be bothered to spend tax dollars on buses for it citizens, it’s a long walk from the nearest bus stop, as well. I’m sure that some sort of car pooling can be organized, though.
If you any of you are in Milwaukee, or perhaps at UW and don’t have a ride to the kick off meeting feel free to email me and perhaps I can help organize a car pool for you. If you can offer a ride let me know as well.
We know have a facebook group, too. Search Wisconsin Citizens for Science and sign up.

Hmm, I might be able to make that if I can remember; it’s not a long drive from Fort and besides, any excuse to visit Barnes and Noble! Although, it would be helpful if I knew what was going on that was applicable to a non-teaching person? Besides the cookies.

There is also a facebook group started to keep members informed on meeting locations/dates.
