I’m leaving today for the UK: Oxford, Denton, Edinburgh, and then Glasgow; I’ll return the 28th of November and posting will be light, as much of the time I’ll lack internet access (I’m hoping that Greg and Matthew will fill in).
Scheduled activities:
Edinburgh: Edinburgh Humanist Society, Friday, Nov. 23, 7 p.m. See link for details.
Glasgow: Skeptics in the Pub, Monday Nov. 26, 7 pm. See link for details.
If you’re in Scotland then, drop by and say hi.
Wassup in Oxford?
Wireless in Cambridge I’d expect, since they haven’t even discovered the oar there, but Oxford?
Make that WiFi-less, or wireless-less.
Bon voyage! Am enjoying your peregrinations. Its wise not to have a cat, as whilst we enjoy life with one, travelling is challenging as she is a superb guilt provoker.
Bon Voyage!
Check out Adam Smith and his views on the economy. He was not a pure capitalist. He thought society and human values should and did play a role in economics.

Sadly, I’ll be out of town next weekend, but I hope you enjoy Edinburgh.
Looks like Friday will be a dry day, if you have an hour or so, I’d recommend a walk up the Radical Road beside Arthur’s Seat; great views of the city and one of the geological sections where Hutton figured out that the igneous rock had intruded into the sedimentary rocks from below. Iconic!
If wet, the National Gallery or the National Museum are pretty good for a wee country…
I’ll see you in Edinburgh, FSM willing. Anyone else?
Yeah, can’t; a big shame. Gig and work.
