I probably won't be going as I work on Tues eves.
If any of you plan to drive maybe you could post
back to the list to offer a ride to others?
This speaker is highly recommended. These
sessions are aimed at the general public - i.e.
very interesting but don't need in-depth science.

A Science Cafe is a monthly gathering in a Cafe,
open to the public, with a short presentation of
a topic followed by discussion. The essence of a
Science Cafe is informality, with groups seated
around tables with food and drink to encourage
conversation. Hudson Valley Science Café meets
on the 4th Tuesday of the month. Temporary
