Any native New Yorkers out there that read denialism blog? If so, I'll be in town for the Sb meetup in NYC on August 9th. If anyone would like to meet me or the other sciencebloggers, let us know. And if you have a good idea where a bunch of people could find an air-conditioned space to do it, feel free to suggest away.

Ah man, I'm afraid I won't be able to make it. I'm not from NYC but I'm only a few hours north... alas I will be busy.
