I’m still plugging away at the book, and I have a few talks and interviews still on the schedule:
Wednesday, November 5 (tonight): I’ll be toasting the elections at the Boulder Drinking Skeptically meetup. That’s at 6:00 p.m. at Old Chicago on the Pearl Street Mall. Local skeptics, come hoist one with us!
Friday, Nov. 14: I’ll be in Second Life (because my first one ain’t busy enough) talking it up with my friend and awesome d00d Michael Stackpole. This was postponed from a couple of weeks ago. If you’re a newbie like me at SL, go to the site and poke around. It’s interesting.
Incidentally, Sean Carroll is also doing an SL interview on November 8.
Monday December 1: I’ll be on KDTH radio (Dubuque, Iowa) at 12:30 p.m. Central time talking with Tom Berryman, host/producer of "Voices of the Tri-States".
Thursday, December 11: I’ll be giving a talk at 7:00 p.m. at the Denver Museum of Nature & Science. It’s $15 for member, $18 if you’re not. But you should be; it’s a very cool place.

I am still noticing a distinct lack of trips to Florida’s Panhandle.
The Drinking Skeptically meetup sounds like my kind of event. I’ll head to the local German Pub here and hoist one in your honour.

Last night, November 5th here, we had the usual fire works for Guy Fawkes, (see http://www.bonfirenight.net).
I wonder how many visitors from the USA thought we were celebrating their Presidential Elections?
I live in New Zealand.

Still waiting to see you on Colbert….
(yes, I know, in reality getting on a top national show like the Colbert Report is a long shot when they only have a handful of science-related guests per year. I would settle for The Daily Show (with Stewart doing his “we’re all gonna die” shtick) or, for a more meaty interview, Charlie Rose, perhaps.)

Will your book tour be bringing you to the sunny Pacific Northwest? Okay, the rainy one?
If not, will anything else be bringing you here?
November 5th, 2008 at 1:04 pm
Any actual times for the Second Life interview?
November 5th, 2008 at 1:12 pm
Okay, so far I have avoided SL. But when I say you AND Sean would be there, well, what can I say.
November 5th, 2008 at 2:06 pm
Old Chicago at the Pearl Street Mall? Woo-hoo! It’s only a 13 hour drive!
*checks time
(sigh…) Never mind.

Wow, you know THE Michael Stackpole? The man who helped breath life into the computer game Wasteland. CooOooOol

Your new book will be one of the door prizes at tonight’s CAS meeting! I bought 2 today and a “Bad Astronomy” too! Keepin’ the dough flow go-in’!

If you are in SL Phil…you better also plug the new IYA 2009 island (to go live in a few weeks!)

Mike Stackpole usually does his thing in SL at 6pm SLT.

Any chance we could please please please get your book released in Kindle format for us ebook readers?
November 6th, 2008 at 9:30 am
Awesome, I can be there then. Thanks, Shane.
I look forward to seeing you in the virtual flesh, Phil. I’ll be the, er, bunny. With a whip.
November 6th, 2008 at 9:37 am
Oh noes a Naked Bunny with a Whip in SL. Haven’t seen a furry there before…
I will be the one with the bright pink metallic Darth Vadar helmet.

Yes, you never visit us. You never write or call us, either. We’ll probably be dead before too long, you know. How will you feel then?
(Sorry, psyching up for Christmas.)
November 6th, 2008 at 10:57 pm
So, what time Friday the 14th will you be in SL?

I just realized I’ll be at our the San Antonio Astronomical Association monthly meeting. Well, Phil, have a great session in SL and hopefully I can catch you there some other time!
