This will be an SBM primer. \u00a0We are also doing a panel, with Robert Blaskiewicz, on fighting medical fraud, on Saturday 2:40-3:30.<\/p>\n<p>On Friday 2:45-3:45 I will be on a panel discussing the scope and mission of the skeptical movement. This will be partly based on some of my <a href=\"http:\/\/theness.com\/neurologicablog\/index.php\/scientific-skepticism-rationalism-and-secularism\/\">previous blog posts here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Friday night will be the SGU dinner, from 6-9. This is a separate event you have to register for &#8211; there are still spots and you can register at the event. In addition to schmoozing with the Rogues, we will be doing our usual auction, which includes a guest rogue slot. This year we will also be doing a skeptical quiz show, with the audience member who wins receiving the TAM VIP package for 2014 (worth $1,000). \u00a0The SGU dinner is always a highlight of the event.<\/p>\n<p>And of course, on Saturday from 11:45-12:45 we will be doing a live SGU podcast.<\/p>\n<p>If you attend be sure to stop by the SGU table and introduce yourself. We will post some scheduled times when all the Rogues will be there.
