Upcoming Events:
Saturday, May 3 – MDC Monthly Meeting: Last year at this time, former United States Ambassador and Foreign Service Officer Carl Coon gave us a frank account of the costly disaster in Iraq that even our foreign office experts are having trouble discerning how to end in a reasonable way. This year, we will hear him expand upon that talk and describe how, having managed to get into this mess, we must now consider how to get out! Carl Coon will describe the why, the how, and the circumstances under which we can extricate ourselves from this seemingly endless morass. Given that the final cost of this adventure will likely reach a trillion dollars, there are few contemporary issues with more direct bearing on all other aspects of American life today, not excluding the serious impacts on our already recession-bound economy. The talk should be very stimulating.
There will be no June MDC talk, as WASH will participate in the American Humanist Association International Humanist and Ethical Union Conference in Washington, which takes place during our usual meeting time.
Hikemeister is sidelined! Unfortunately your MDC hike organizer managed to injure a tendon while bending over to tie his shoe, after vigorous cycling on wet sandy forest roads. The spring hike season will be postponed until summer or, at the latest, early fall. Apologies to all you intrepid youngsters. Meanwhile, is there a volunteer?
