Event

 
Our friends over at the Cal Academy of Sciences
http://www.calacademy.org/index.php
have started a new informal science venture: The Bay Area Science Forum.
http://www.bayareascienceforum.org
 In collaboration with UC Berkeley and Stanford, BASF is an interactive dialogue to facilitate more informed decisions--much like a science cafe without the booze.
After an open vote, "water resources" was chosen as a topic for this 3 month, 3 event discussion. The first event is March 13 at the Jewish Community Center of San Francisco.
http://www.jccsf.org 3200 California St San Francisco,  CA 94118 @ Presidio/ Masonic.
I will definitely be attending, I encourage everyone else to come out as well.
For some good background, check out the video from DtaS's event on California Water Management.
