[The Central Scrutinizer]

One 2015 date is now known - 16th European Skeptics Congress in London

Sign me up! I haven't been to London since TAM UK II in 2010(?).

 

[krelnik]

I was thinking the same thing - I haven't been since the first TAM London, and this one is being held in the same part of London, where my friends live.

 

[AdMan]

krelnik, since you probably have some inside info--still no news on TAM 2014?

 

[krelnik]

I haven't been told anything. As soon as I know something I'll add it to the list.

CFI Secular Summit for Ohio in January.

Columbus, OH in January? What's not to like?

 

[Wowbagger]

Wow, that's a lot of events! It's amazing how the skeptical "movement" has grown!


Are now including SkeptiCamps on the list? I wouldn't think those would be considered "major", since they are typically local events with fewer than 100 participants.

 

[krelnik]

Actually we had a Skepticamp last year (Chicago) that had 175 attendees, others have topped 100. That actually makes them larger than some of the other more conventionally organized events on the schedule (such as regional events).

 

[krelnik]

Skepticamps in Fort Collins and Aireys Inlet, Australia. Oklahoma Freethought Convention in August.

Skeptics' Guide gave the dates for the 29th annual New Zealand conference in their episode this week in announcing they are attending. Note how it is one week after the Australian event, non-standard timing - but anyone planning to travel to attend one of those events might be able to attend both.

For those who asked, a little bird tells me we will be able to add some info about TAM to this list very soon now. Stay tuned.

Looking forward to the news!

BTW, Randi called in to Penn's Sunday School show this past weekend and he said that plans are coming along for TAM 2014, but interestingly he also mentioned that plans are also underway for a series of TAM-like events in different parts of the country (he mentioned California, New York and Florida, plus Canada), to come in future years. Hopefully the international TAMs will also return.

Penn also said that he plans to host his traditional bacon and doughnut party, so that's good.

This has been talked about for several years now - if TAM got too big there was an idea floating about to split it into a TAM East and TAM West (for example).
