[Sci-all-l] VC's Theresa Garrett doing a Science Cafe - Save the date

[Flora Grabowska]

I'm sure we can carpool for those interested.  Flora

A Science Cafe is a monthly gathering in a Cafe, 
Pub or Restaurant, 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 usually meets on the 
4th Wednesday of the month, except where noted.
