The 80th Meeting of the Skeptics' Circle: Is Valentine's Day the right time for skepticism?

Of course Valentine's Day is the right time for skepticism! What better time? If you don't believe me, visit Bug Girl's Blog for the 80th Meeting of the Skeptics' Circle: Valentine Edition! She'll show you why there's no time like today for a healthy dose of critical thinking.

Next up is (I think) Sorting Out Science on February 28. I would be remiss in my organizing duties, however, if I didn't inform you that it is quite possible that there might be a change in hosts before then. Don't worry, though.

Finally, if you're interested in hosting, head on over to the Skeptics' Circle archive site and check out the schedule and hosting guidelines. Then drop me a line.

We've had cartoons, soda machines, stories, raucous meetings…
It's Thursday, and I can hardly believe that it's time for the Skeptics' Circle again. Time flies between these every other week exercises in critical thinking. This time around, it's Holford Watch that's hosting the 73rd Meeting of the Skeptics' Circle. However, before you can enjoy skeptical…
