Let's figure out what does and doesn't work with local face-to-face atheist groups. If you have started a local group or if you're thinking about trying, join up and get some ideas rolling.

I'm looking to start a group in my area. I've been looking for helpful advice.

Hi, I'm one of three organizers for a group in Amarillo, Tx. We're off to a slow start.

I posted the bulk of this on another thread, but wanted to add some context separately.

Days after I revealed my "epiphany" to a few friends who knew me from another message board, my sister died from Lou Gehrig's Disease (which pissed her off because she hated catching a disease from someone she never f---ed).
