[If you haven't come since we started meeting at Rocky Hill Cohousing, make sure to read this for details about where to go and park.]
We're the regular Northampton area meetup for ACX readers, and (as far as I know) the only rationalist or EA meetup in the Pioneer Valley area. We started in the 2018 Meetups Everywhere event and have been going ever since, though had a dip during the COVID era. We aim to meet every other Saturday evening for most meetups; most planning happens in our Discord on the #scheduling-chat and #scheduling-voting channels (see below for link to an invite).
As with the last meetup, we'll be joined by my friend, the earth scientist Eric Zautner, who is an adjunct professor of earth sciences (Physical Geography, Geology and Meteorology) at two community colleges in the Kansas City metro (Johnson County Community College and Metropolitan Community College - Blue River). He is very well studied in climate change and will be more than happy to answer any questions about climate and other earth science topics.
Please join us for rationalist discussion, drinks and snacks at:

Extra Info For Potential Attendees (quoting Scott):
- If you’re reading this, you’re invited. Please don’t feel like you "won’t be welcome" just because you’re new to Astral Codex Ten, demographically different from the average reader, or hate ACX and everything it stands for. You’ll be fine!
- You don’t have to RSVP or contact the organizer to be able to attend. RSVPs are mostly to give organizers a better sense of how many people might show up, and let them tell you if there are last-second changes.
We mainly stay in touch via an email list; feel free to email me at alex@alexliebowitz.com to get on the list. Just let me know if you'd like to be a CC or BCC. There is also a Discord that a handful of us sometimes use for follow-up conversation, last minute questions about logistics, etc.
Look forward to meeting you!
