Science Cafe
Last night I had the opportunity to combine two of my favorite things: science and beer. (No, I wasn't drinking in the lab.) The Great Lakes Brewery hosted Cleveland's inaugural "Science Cafe", an open forum for the discussion of scientific issues in an informal setting. Last night's discussion focused on global warming, with Case geology professor Beverly Saylor and Case economist Gary Murphy leading the discussion. The forum kicked off with a short Nova film on the connection between global warming and hurricane intensity, followed by a lively discussion on the scientific and economic issues surrounding greenhouse gas emissions and energy policy.
Science Cafe is scheduled to happen the second Monday of each month in the basement of the Great Lakes brewery. Next month's topic: stem cell research.

I heard about this too late to go, unfortunately. It would have been fun. I'll try and make the next one.
