The 65th Meeting of the Skeptics' Circle: Take a tour through the museum

The 65th Meeting of the Skeptics' Circle has been posted by Steve Novella over at his Neurologica Blog:

The room was filled with that odd combination of excitement, interest and restlessness that accompanies children forced to walk through a museum.

"Quiet down," said Ms. Trueblood for the hundredth time. As experienced as she was a gaggle of nine-year-olds was always a challenge. "Raise your hand if you have a question, otherwise I want quiet, and pay attention to Mr. Lucious."


Join Steve and the rest for a healthy sampling of the best skeptical blogging of the last fortnight.

Next up is fellow ScienceBlogger Mark at denialism blog. Lately, Mark has had a bit of a crank infestation in his blog's comments; so hopefully an infusion of skeptical thinking from outside bloggers will help to clean the blog out.

And, as always, if you're interested in tryng your hand at hosting the Circle yourself, drop me a line at oracknows@gmail.com. The schedule can be found here, and the guidelines for hosting are here.

Once again, we'll see if your qi and feng shui are up to the task...

The 64th Meeting of the Skeptics' Circle: New Truth University

As hard as it is to believe, it's that time again, time for a bracing dose of reality in response to the rampant credulity that permeates the blogosphere. I apologize for my announcement being later than usual; I was in the O.R. all day and only this evending did I have an opportunity to do my usual plug. So here it is now, the 64th Meeting of the Skeptics' Circle presented to you at the Skeptical Alchemist. It's good to know that our intrepid skeptics are muscling in on woo territory.

Next up is Dr. Steve Novella at Neurologica. And, as always, if you're interested in tryng your hand at hosting the Circle yourself, drop me a line at oracknows@gmail.com. The schedule can be found here, and the guidelines for hosting are here. We'll see if your qi and feng shui are up to the task...
