Our next meeting:
Cognitive Science Reading & Discussion Group May Meeting
The location of this meetup will be the Borders Books in Emeryville. If the cafe inside is too crowded, there is an indoor food court right next door, which the back entrance of the bookstore exits into, and there are also tables outside (which is where we usually end up if the weather is nice).
