tam5

OK, time to get organized. Meta-organized. There are a lot of plans flying around, so I thought we'd better collate the various activities in one thread. This thread is not meant for discussion about specific events, it is merely meant as a rallying point for all non-session activities. THE...

Well, there has been much discussion on who/what/when things are going to happen at TAM5, so FWIW here is what I am planning on doing during my stay for TAM, both official and unofficial. Wednesday, 17 January Arrive 11:22am, Delta Airlines willing. Pickup rental van. Pickup lunch. At 1:30PM...

Woe, woe and thrice woe! Fengirl cannot attend TAM after all! :( I've already booked her and Leo's tickets on a Grand Canyon trip on Monday, January 22nd 2007. Before I try and cancel their booking, does anyone want to take up the chance? The trip is as follows:- Pick up from the hotel at 9am...

Oooooh, I'm so excited! I get to go to TAM! So, I'm wondering something: I'm a bead artisan, and have been doing beadworking for almost 15 years. I have a lot of beads. Let me say that again, just to clarify: I. have. a. LOT. of. beads. And cordage, needles, findings, other supplies. I...

Hi everyone, We will be asking for volunteers to help at TAM5. Even though I planned to wait a few more weeks before starting this thread to give people time to register and make travel plans, some people have already volunteered to help. A big "Thank You" to them (They Know Who They Are)...

Hey, just looking through flight schedules and stuff...what day are most people arriving? I would like to volunteer for some things (putting together registration packets, etc.), if possible, so I'm wondering about what days most people are getting in. Granted, it's Vegas, and I'm fairly sure...

I'll be attending TAM5 as a freshman starting at WWU(Western Washington University). How about anyone else?

WooHoo! (And I mean that "woo" in the good way.)

Since I was not a member of the JREF Forum during TAM4, I was not aware if people had their JREF Forum screen names on their name tags so if they did, disregard this. If they did not, would it be difficult to set this up? It would be helpful and fun for people who converse regularly on the...

Hello. I'm assuming TAM-5 will be in Vegas. If not, then everything else in this thread is pointless. Anyways. I'd really like to get a group together to take a trip to the fabulous Nevada Test Site. Just 75 miles north of Las Vegas, this is the area where nearly 1000 nuclear weapons were...

As many of you know, I have prepared crossword puzzles for TAMS 2, 3 and 4, which were included in the distributed materials. For TAM5, while preparing another crossword puzzle, an idea occurred to me: Would anyone be interested in a puzzle-based hunt around Las Vegas? Something similar to...

....more folks from the political end going this time. Here is the thread: http://www.internationalskeptics.com/forums/showthread.php?p=1491111#post1491111 It'll be January 2007 and in Las Vegas (the Riveria) Now that is more than enough time to make your arrangements. This year Randfan...

This may have been mentioned before, but has anyone considered Bobby Henderson, creator of the venerable Flying Spaghetti Monster?

The singer of the punk band Bad Religion. Now before you roll your eyes, hear me out. The guy has a Ph.D. in Zoology from Cornell and did his thesis on conflict between science and religion. http://www.cornellevolutionproject.org/summary.html He's got a book coming out soon. Maybe we can...

A well-placed source stated that TAM5 could be held in Orlando, Florida. The actual location has not been selected yet. Unlike many of my posts this one is not a joke. I can do without Vegas for a while. I was a bit tired of the town by then end of TAM3. I would prefer to see it in Toronto...

I have been back in Los Angeles for less than 24 hours and I've got three, my mom, my boyfriend, and my former Calculus teacher. :D
