What's Meetup?

Meetup Groups are today's support groups, parent playgroups, citizen groups, fitness groups, book clubs, professional groups, and other powerful local groups!

Had enough of astrologers, psychics, homeopaths, and spirit channelers? Do you love the scientific method? Yearning to talk with someone rational for awhile? Meetup with other local skeptics for some refreshing and sane conversation.

 Good group but perhaps everyone should bring topics. They don't have to be discussed, only considered. Also, sometimes it might stimulate conversation to have a common reading. I will come next month.

The Evanston Writers Group is an eclectic mix of writers, ranging from beginners to long time professionals, and reflect all ages, genders and backgrounds. We have members who publish literary fiction, creative non-fiction, children's literature, romance, hard-boiled crime, memoir, travel, poetry, humor and assorted forms of the unclassifiable.

 It is good for those interested in writing fiction. I am interested in publicizing my book and getting reviews. I don't need help with writing.

I don't think having a brother in medical school is the answer to the question. No point in commenting more except the idea that people will return to the farm is a little ridiculous.
