Join Rational Examination Association of Lincoln Land

You'll get invited to our Meetups as soon as they're scheduled!

Introduction: I'm the current chairman of REALL, having co-founded the group in February 1993. I also run Skeptic News (a semi-dormant blog) and Skeptic Planet (a site for searching skeptic-oriented web sites using Google).
How did you become a skeptic?: No answer yet
Did you formerly believe some paranormal or pseudoscience claims?: I figured that, with all of the UFO sightings, at least some of them must be real. I felt the same about Bigfoot and the Loch Ness monster.
Do you read Skeptical Inquirer, Skeptic, or a similar magazine?: I read "Skeptical Inquirer", "Skeptic", "Free Inquiry", and "Church & State" (the newsletter of Americans United for the Separation of Church and State).

“ The conversation is always good, but I'm looking forward to having the occasional presentation, DVD viewing, book discussion, etc. We haven't done any significant publicity yet, so we should probably start doing so. ”
