Dear science enthusiast,
I'm
Shawn Carlson. And I founded the Society for Amateur Scientists
(SAS) back in 1994 to help ordinary people just like you do extraordinary
science. We help our members both to advance knowledge themselves,
and to ignite in their students and their children that passion
to do great things in life.
In
fact, we've helped thousands of folks bring the excitement
of scientific discovery into their own backyards. If you are a student,
teacher, parent, homeschooler, or a genuine citizen scientist--regardless
of your age, experience or ability--SAS can help you push
back the frontiers of knowledge or fan those flames
in others. But more than that, we can also help you inspire the
young people you love to succeed in their education
and maybe even to use their talents to one day
make the world a better place for all of us.
SAS's
luminary Board of Trustees and I are so sure that we can help you
and your family get more out of your passion for science that we've
created this special risk-free offer.
Now, for a limited
time you can get all these
extraordinary benefits of membership
