A Northwest Freethought conference

Hey! I didn't hear about this until just now, but there's going to be a conference of the godless in my home state of Washington on 26-28 March. Ophelia Benson will be speaking there! If you're in the area, you should be going…I'm kinda wishing I could go, too.

First, you've got to hand it Richard Branson. Say what you want about his contradictory ways -- promoting wasteful extravagance while saving the planet from the products of those wasteful ways -- but his choice of brand name was brilliant.

Noooo! It's the same weekend as NWAC (the Northwest Anthropological Conference), which is being held at CWU/Ellensburg. There's finally a neat godless event in my area, and I can't go. Figures.

Ophelia Benson! And too far away!

So not fair.

My ex boyfriend lives in Renton.
I should go pester him and make him go to the conference with me. :P

Booo! Why isn't OB coming to Copenhagen?

(And why isn't Sastra a featured speaker at more of these hubbubs? And why isn't she an official Skepchick either?)

AIM sign-in isn't working, so you get me as "Massive Google Name" instead.

I might just have to go to this . . . looking at the schedule now.

I should see if I can make it.
Provided we can pay for it, of course...

I've seen a lot of Freethought/Skeptic/Atheist meetings popping up lately. This is clearly a Very Good Thing; it seems as though we're finally getting out there and telling the world that, yes, we don't just sit at our computers all day and complain about Jesusfreaks.

Not until you've cleaned your plate and finished your homework, young man.
