Recent news that Randi has been banned from YouTube - he doesn't deserve this
http://scienceblogs.com/pharyngula/2009/03/youtube_has_banned_the_james_r.php

I thought that you might find these 2 examples to be interesting:

James Randi exposes Uri Geller and Peter Popoff
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M9w7jHYriFo

James Randi explains homeopathy
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BWE1tH93G9U&feature=related

James Randi reports that there was no Nazareth in the 1st Century
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WSzQC1zKesU&feature=channel_page

There is more on other topics... and you can look it up.
Have fun.

I'll be gone. I have other interests besides being an ex-Scientologist.

Randi is a hoot, and apparently a good friend of Penn & Teller, who are also skeptics who denounce "bovine excrement" when they see it (hence their cable TV show, Bullshit).

I wonder if any OTs have ever considered demonstrating their power over MEST in order to win the million bucks Randi has on offer for any proof of paranormal / supernatural powers. You'd think that million bucks would help out the good ol' CoS, amirite? Or the OT--assuming s/he is not an OT8 and that s/he has already bought multiple copies of the Basics over and over and wants something new and shiny to waste money on--might want to buy more auditing and crap to speed them over that Bridge.

Come on, OT peeps: call up Randi, arrange a meeting, demonstrate your powers over MEST, win a million bucks! Shut up all those pesky critics once and for all, and profit!

OT powers and traffic intersections

http://www.forum.exscn.net/showthread.php?p=25372&highlight=traffic+coordination#post25372

Alan Walter (RIP) had a response to something like this (on ESMB awhile back). He corroborated what I had to say.

I described what coordinated intersections are (usually they are nearby 8 phase quad intersections) and Alan says how he took advantage of this fact sometimes.

Anyway, you can read it there. It's funny. (Scroll up to read the whole conversation.)

Thanks for posting the Randi stuff, programmer_guy.  Best of luck to you with your other interests!  I understand completely, but if you take a notion to, drop in anytime.
