If you're paying attention, thanks! Drop me a note sometime so that I know you're alive.
I've just added several new events to the calendar. There's only one of them I'll be able to host (you'll see a posting about that soon), but I hope you'll still take an interest, and those of you on Meetup consider organizing a group to attend and discuss afterwards.
These look particularly good, (see the calendar and click through for details):
* November 15 (tomorrow, as I post this!) a talk on environmental justice at Rice (Rice's calendar item)
* November 22 (2:30 in the afternoon, ugh), Elaine Ecklund talks on "Gender Differences in Elite Academic Science". Let's hope she does a better job than with scientists and religion. Rice's calendar entry
* December 4, "Neuroscience and the Future of Justice" -- actually, I *am* hosting this one, through the Priestley Lecture Task Force. See here for more details.
About the Houston Science events calendar
We publicize local science, technology and geeky-arts events because we love this stuff and want to see bigger crowds of smart and curious people.

Please send your events to houston.science@gmail.com that:
Criteria for Inclusion
- Are open to and with reasonable accommodations for the public (e.g., plenty of seating and parking).
- Have complete details and directions in your e-mail or on a website for which you've sent a link. Clearly note any membership requirements or admission fees.
- Include grown-ups (we're trying not to duplicate efforts of sites that focus on kids).
- Occur outside of normal working hours. Exceptions will be rare, unless you're somewhere (such as the Med Center and Rice) within short walking distance of many science-aware people.
