This is the "instruction manual" for the Area science event list
(wiki.hacdc.org/index.php/Area_science_event_list). This is an
incomplete list of science events (talks and science fairs; generally
excluding book, article, or movie discussions, workshops, and events
focused on finance rather than science) in the Washington area and at
the STScI and BUGSS in Baltimore. Only free events are listed but
registration, a free ticket, or other advance arrangements may be
required (noted when known). Normal times and locations for events are
given below but note that there may be exceptions. In-person events
where the speaker is virtual are included. Warning: All events are
subject to change with no warning. Send additions, corrections,
comments, etc. to: gippgig@gmail.com CI=Carnegie Institute -
