From the Quotation of the day mailing list, 2012-01-12:
"It got started in 2006, which was the height of national stupidity. This was pushback. People were sick of being dumb." -- Mike Garbarino, about the Secret Science Club, a monthly lecture series in Brooklyn. The Club features "mind-bending lectures, volatile experiments, chemical libations, star-gazing sounds".
