Off to the (relatively) frozen NorthEast

By jlynch on March 13, 2006.

As I mentioned previously, I'm getting to spend the latter half of Spring Break over in Colby College, Maine - where the temperature is currently 43 degrees. That's not too bad (it's only 52 here in the desert at the moment). Problem is, they are forecasting a high of 39 and low of 20 for Wednesday (when I arrive) and then Thursday (when I talk, see below) is 39/15. Friday will be 35/14. I mean, come on, that's not a high! No snow though. (Which is kind of a pity ...).

On Thursday, I will be giving a public talk ("Darwin, Design, and Democracy") at Colby . The venue is the Olin Science Center, the kick-off is 7:00pm, and I'm being sponsored by Colby's Science, Technology & Society program (link).

In any case, point is I probably wont be blogging much/at all until I return over the weekend.

Sometimes I hear a slight bit of trash talk about how my "war on science" message goes down smoothest on the two left coasts. There's some truth to the claim, but I certainly haven't been avoiding other parts of the USA--and my events this week prove it. I'm doing the heartland, the swing states--…

Okay, I wasn't supposed to be blogging...and now, I'm not any more. At all. Period. Let me just repost my events list for those wishing to catch me on the road in the next month or so; note that a new event, in Miami/Coral Gables, has been added, for election day no less (wonder what that will do…
