NCAS -- National Capital Area Skeptics
Description edit
Who are we? The National Capital Area Skeptics is an independent nonprofit educational and scientific organization that promotes critical thinking and scientific understanding, with a focus on paranormal and fringe-science claims. NCAS is based in the Washington, Maryland, and Virginia community, where it serves as an advocate for science and reason, actively promoting the scientific method, rational inquiry, and education. NCAS is at the front lines in the battle against gullibility and fraud.
NCAS members include scientists, students, doctors, lawyers, journalists, educators, magicians, and others who value critical thinking and scientific understanding. Through the voluntary work of its members, NCAS offers public programs and acts as an information resource for the media and the public.
NCAS Membership includes a subscription to our newsletter, "The Skeptical Eye". Local members receive our monthly bulletin of NCAS events, "The Shadow of a Doubt". Members may also borrow from from our video library, which has tapes of our programs, at no charge, except for round-trip postage.
