The last couple of these have coincided with out-of-town trips for me, so I&#8217;m glad to get to go to this year&#8217;s <a href=\"http:\/\/www.worldsciencefestival.com\/\">World Science Festival<\/a>, which includes a whole bunch of cool-sounding stuff. The Street Fair is an eight-hour affair, while I&#8217;ll only be signing books for an hour or so during that span; I&#8217;ll post a more specific time when I get it.<\/li>\n<li>On Sunday, June 19th, I&#8217;ll be <a href=\"http:\/\/www.booksite.com\/texis\/scripts\/community\/eventcal.html?sid=6862\">signing books at the Open Door<\/a> on Jay St. in Schenectady. If you&#8217;re in the area, and haven&#8217;t gotten a book signed yet, here&#8217;s another chance. As a bonus, you can support a local independent bookstore, which is always nice.<\/li>\n<li>Jumping backwards a little, I&#8217;m doing a presentation for high school students on May 24th, a week from Monday, on Union&#8217;s campus. This is part of an all-day visit for them, which has gotten expanded quite a bit from the original idea, but should hopefully be fun for everybody.<\/li>\n<li>I don&#8217;t have any formal book-promoting events scheduled, but I will be at the <a href=\"http:\/\/damop2010.rice.edu\/\">2010 DAMOP meeting in Houston, May 25-29<\/a>. This will mark my third trip to Texas in just over six months, after never visiting the state at all in the previous 37+ years. Go figure. If you&#8217;re in the Houston area and would like to get together (or just offer suggestions of good places to eat and drink near the Hyatt Regency), leave a comment or send me email.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>And that&#8217;s where things stand at the moment. I&#8217;ll post enough reminders of these things that you&#8217;ll all be thoroughly sick of hearing about them by the time anything happens.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A few upcoming events related to How to Teach Physics to Your Dog: The big one is that I&#8217;ll be aprt of the &#8220;Author&#8217;s Alley&#8221; portion of the World Science Festival Street Fair in New York City on Sunday, June 6th.
