why did they schedule this event the same weekend as CFI’s World Congress on Science, Public policy? Now I have to choose. Damn it.

I'm in DC (about 45 minutes from the CFI event) but I'll be going to the American Atheists conference in Georgia. I'll be bringing along a few members of my student group assuming our finance request is approved. There's also a number of Beltway Atheists members making the trip. Should be a blast! Hotel party in my room. :)

And that may be why the Center for Inquiry also chooses this time.
