Our meetings consist primarily of critiques, with occasional short presentations and speakers. Pieces to be critiqued are on a first-come first-serve volunteer basis. Pieces are limi …

The books will be a variety of fiction, best sellers and non-fiction. Once a critical mass of six or so people sign up, we'll start deciding on when and where to meet and what book to start off with …

Be it experimental military craft, pranksters looking for their 15-minutes of fame or something from out of this world, our researchers are trained to determine fact from fiction and get to the truth. We also enjoy gathering at places throughout Brevard County where we share our experiences on the subject …

It's time to take another look at some of those books we read (or pretended to read) in high school or college. If you went to high school in the 40s or 50s, you actually read books! Authors of fiction such as Dickens, Tolstoy, Camus, Kipling, and Elliott are some of the ones to re-consider. Then there's all that nonfiction, of course, especially the ones we were supposed to read in history, social studies, anthropology and philosophy classes.
