A quick link to a BBC article about the harm caused to children by complementary and alternative medicine:
Alternative remedies 'dangerous' for kids says report
From the article: "Children don't make decisions themselves about their treatment; very often it is their parents, and parents can be misguided by the 50 million alternative medicine websites. The children are victims of lots of nonsense and false claims."
We are a group of skeptics who enjoy drinking, hanging out, talking about a variety of things, doing random things around town, and sometimes karaoke. We are centered out of Fort Collins, and are always looking to meet new people. For this blog there will be several different people writing on a variety of topics. Meet us every Saturday at 7pm at Wild Boar Cafe!!!! We don't post on here very often, but we are still meeting check our Meetup page for more details

Here is a popup book version of the Large Hadron Collider, because science is cool and kids have a right to know that.
