Southwest Florida MENSA FORTE FORUM


Southwest Florida MENSA FORTE FORUM

The Summer Semester of MENSA Forte Forums will begin Saturday, May 31 at 12:30 PM
~~~~~
We enjoy hearing brilliant locals tell about some of their fascinating interests and adventures.
And to celebrate a new semester of MENSA Forte Forums we will be having FREE beer and pizza for lunch.

"Without question, the greatest invention in the history of mankind is beer. Oh, I grant you that the wheel was also a fine invention, but the wheel does not go nearly as well with pizza."
Dave Barry

 Mensa membership not required; this FREE seminar is open to the public.

This month’s topic will be “American Exceptionalism”

This month the discussion will be led by

Dr. William Hutchins

Dr Hutchins will be presenting again, this time on the topic of American Exceptionalism, its development and decline.  Dr Hutchins has a wide range of interests, including history, philosophy and finance.  He has practiced Radiology for the past 30 years, and currently is a partner in Naples Radiologists at Physicians Regional, and at Naples Diagnostic Imaging Center, where he is a part owner.  In the 1990s he left Radiology for five years, and consulted with hedge funds which needed medical expertise. Some his closest acquaintances included the founders of Earthlink, Computer Motion - the original medical robotics company, and Biopsys Breast Device.

    A Nation Like No Other: Why American Exceptionalism Matters by Newt Gingrich
