DESCRIPTION:Calling all skeptics! Shut out misinformation with data driven
  thinking..\nhttps://dpl.libnet.info/event/17013275
X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html:<p>All of us believe lots of things that aren
 't true\, and most of us don't even realize it so we can't correct ourselv
 es. The result is a global\, wide-ranging\, conflicting\, and contradictor
 y flood of misinformation that drives bad decision making at every level. 
 Learn how to shut out the misinformation society screams into our ears. We
  can all build a better life\, a better business\, and make better choices
  with data driven policy.</p>\n<p><strong>About the presenter:</strong></p
