		<description>Hi - nervous about attending my first TAM.  I keep hearing about all the socializing and I am a pretty bookish and quiet person. Has anyone had fun and NOT partied all night long with fellow skeptics?</description>

		<description>I wish I could afford to send my 24 year old son... He&#039;s been trying to pull my feet back down to earth since the day he was born.  Penn &amp; Teller and Mythbusters are &quot;simply the best&quot; for him. Sigh - to be poor... well - not poor, but certainly middle class... TY for the notice.  Hope you do something on the East Coast!</description>

		<description>Aw. I wish I could go.

I haven&#039;t been to an amazing meeting since TAM2! Much too long since I&#039;ve tooled around Vegas with my fellow skeptics.</description>

		<description>*sniff*  We can&#039;t go this year.  I&#039;d seriously love to go to the London TAM, too.  But not going to happen this year, sadly.  Maybe next year.</description>

		<description>Some of these people are great in terms of critical thinking, Phil Plaitt, Randi.

Shermer is not consistent.  He is a good critical thinker on some topics, like UFOs, but makes assumptions he cannot on science when he isn&#039;t a scientist.  I&#039;ve heard him in debates with people that I thought creamed him in the debates, I have no doubt.  

That is the rub with conference, they have too much variety in people.</description>

		<description>Damn...going to be in Europe for my 30th birthday that weekend, otherwise I&#039;d already be registered. I can&#039;t believe I&#039;m going to miss out on meeting three of my man-crushes: Phil, Adam, and Penn. I guess I&#039;ll just have to wait for TAM 8 :(</description>

		<description>I just saw Randi speak at Butler University on Monday night, and that was so much fun.  I could listen to him talk for months on end.

Unfortunately, TAM7 is out of the question.  TAM8, though...  My wife and I are already making plans!</description>
