Skeptics in the Pub - Newspaper Story

Sydney Skeptics in the Pub.

After all the time and trouble we went to so the Daily Telegraph would have a photo, no photo! Still, we are on page 99. For those who don't want to buy the paper, or who are not in Australia, here it is:

When I click on the link, the story pops up large enough to read for about a nanosecond, then reduces until all I can read is the headline.

Question from a non-Australian: Shouldn't that be "Sydney Skeptics Down the Pub?"

ETC: "Australian Skeptics" to "Sydney Skeptics."

I knew it would start to get popular if I started going. Happens all the time. So next meeting on Wednesday then?

Yep.. 1.Nov.. it will be the last one for the year.... or maybe not. We'll see how many we get.

Righto then. I may even be in a position to repay that beer.

 

[Zep]

Which pub? Never mind. What time?

I will, of course, assert that the owed beer is owed to me.

 

[PeterB]

Which pub? What time?

The Crown, corner of Elizabeth and Goulburn Streets, from 6pm onwards in the upstairs bar.

And the beer is owed to Richard. I know this because the ratbag I was sitting next to didn't buy me one (not that I was expecting him to). We'll see what happens.

I must be owed a beer by me then. I'm glad we cleared that up.

 

[Zep]

Who owes ME a beer, then?

Some people wouldn't shout if a shark bit 'em...

 

[Richard]

I think everyone in the whole world owes me a beer.... one will do.

 

[Richard]

Photos!

Thanks everyone for coming along. We destroyed about 14 spoons! See you next month!

 

[Zep]

Oh good! I'm in the background or you are showing my bald spot. Thanks.

You have TABLECLOTHS in your pubs? - Jeez now that's class!

I think the camera lies! My hair looks like it's going Grey... that can't be right!

That room is new and we are one of the first groups to use it. The food was very good last night and the beer does not cost too much. I nice night out! More spoon bending lessons next time. Next meeting, Wednesday the 6th of Dec.

I'll be on radio 2UE (also has live online audio) on Saturday at 3.40pm Sydney time to talk about Skeptics in the Pub.

 

[Brainache]

I had a great night. Now I have a great hangover. Thank Ed I have a day off. Oh the pain, the pain.

 

[PeterB]

You have TABLECLOTHS in your pubs? - Jeez now that's class!

Paper tablecloths. I think that they are made by recycling the sawdust on the floor.

 

[CBVan]

In Soviet Russia, sawdust recycles YOU!
Nevermind that, its the potted plants that impress me. Those are big plants!
