Brianne reminds us all that CONvergence is coming — only a month and a half until the big event in Bloomington, with 46 panels on science, all-night party rooms full of nerds blissed out on fantastic science, and thousands of SF/Fantasy conversations going on nonstop. I overdid it a bit last year, and this year I’m only in eight events, including two with Mary in which we teach kids about bones and DNA.
Y’all are coming, right? It’s the greatest swarm of Skepchicks and Freethoughtbloggers in the known universe.
I need to finally go to this. I live in the Twin Cities but there’s always so much going on over the 4th of July.
I really need to find the budget for this. Some day.
Nobody goes to CONvergence anymore – it’s too crowded… ;^)
FYI, there’s a Star Trek exhibition on display at the Mall of America this summer, for those CONvergence-goers who might be interested in a little side trip:
