Las Vegas Futurists

I attended this past Friday evening the meeting of the Las Vegas Futurists. Gathered at a local Borders bookstore was an eclectic group of intelligent people. It seemed that noone was reticent to voice a comment, an insight, or an opinion. Each participant seemed well-informed, and not merely re the topic at hand. Moreover, the meeting did not devolve into a shoutfest, which tends to occur at gatherings of (otherwise) intelligent people who believe their opinion is the sole correct opinion.

Elaine Barans led the discussion of Fareed Zakaria's THE FUTURE OF FREEDOM. Elaine was especially well-informed: pithy, incisive, cogent -- and easy to look at.

I will attend future meetings. If discussing ideas at a high level of discourse interests you, then consider attending future meetings as well. (View the website's calendar for meeting dates.)
