# [Talk Coming Up! 2012: the Movie, the Astronomy, and the Hoax!](https://grav.alicesastroinfo.com/blog/talk-coming-up-2012-the-movie-the-astronomy-and-the-hoax)

   1st Nov 2009   [2012](https://grav.alicesastroinfo.com/tag:2012#body-wrapper) [Event](https://grav.alicesastroinfo.com/tag:Event#body-wrapper)  

Hey all!

[Pacific Science Center’s](http://www.pacsci.org/) Science Cafe team just asked me to host a talk/Q&A at the next Science Cafe: [TUESDAY, November 3](http://www.google.com/calendar/event?eid=cmdsbmxyOWk3NzdhdGR0ZmVpcjU0aWJkY2dfMjAwOTExMDRUMDMzMDAwWiAwcjByZmMzaHJxMWlwMGliNWlkaDNjbDliOEBn&ctz=America%2FLos_Angeles)! I’m going tackle “how to talk to your friends about 2012.”

> Join us next Tuesday, November 3 for a myth busting Queen Anne Science Café. As we approach 2012, TV shows, new books – even a new movie – all sensationalize the idea of the world “ending” in 2012. Our next Science Café, 2012: The Movie, the Astronomy, and the Hoax, will debunk any fears you may have about the end of the world. Don’t miss a fascinating evening of science, drinks and hoaxes, 7:30 p.m. at [T.S. McHugh’s](http://maps.google.com/maps?q=T.S.%20McHugh%27s&hl=en).

Don’t worry though – it is an all-ages event, so bring whomever you’d like. The talk will be Cafe-style: shortish followed by plenty of question and discussion time. See you there!
