For our March Skeptics in the Pub talk, we thought we’d do something different, which is why rather than one speaker we thought we’d give you six! Giving a short talk as part of our Merseyside Skeptics March Megamix will be:

- Mike Hall – President of Merseyside Skeptics Society – on the Monty Hall problem and counter-intuitive maths
- Michael Marshall – Vice President of Merseyside Skeptics Society – on high street allergy tests
- Laurie Phillips – on perpetual motion machines
- Emma McClure – on forensic science and errors in the criminal justice system
- Tom Williamson – on the skeptical significance of flags
- Geraint Parry – on Science and May 7th

So, we’ll see you in The Vines, Lime Street from 8pm on March 19th for something a little different!

Join us for good times and good conversation at Dr Duncan's in Liverpool City Centre. Don't be shy, come along and say hello!

Please note that this event will be on the fifth Thursday of April, rather than our normal third Thursday of the month slot.

Dr. Hall will relate her always frustrating and often hilarious experiences as the token skeptic in a local community discussion group, and will follow up with a useful list of anti-science memes that refuse to die (like “science doesn’t know everything”) and will show how skeptics can answer them effectively.

Dr Harriet Hall is a retired family physician and former Air Force flight surgeon who writes about medicine, alternative medicine, science, quackery, and critical thinking. She is one of the founders and editors of the Science-Based Medicine blog, a Fellow of the Committee for Skeptical Inquiry, and co-author of the textbook Consumer Health: A Guide to Intelligent Decisions.
