			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>We weren’t sure if we could pull this off, but now it’s official: on Monday, April 21, at 7:00 p.m. James Randi and I will be doing a <a href="http://skeptic.org.uk/pub" target="_blank">Skeptics in the Pub</a>: a free public skeptical talk in London. I’ll be doing the Moon Hoax talk, and Randi will be grumpy and charming and very very entertaining. <img class="wp-smiley" src="http://www.badastronomy.com/bablog/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif" alt=":-)" /></p>
<p>It will be held at The Penderel’s Oak, 283-288 High Holborn, London, WC1V 7HP. The phone number there is 020 7242 5669. I hope to see more of you left-side-of-the-road drivers there!</p>
