Captain Randy Blogs Again

More of a column than a blog. And very little about pirates, really. This be the blog of Randal T. Murray (No, the "T" does not stand for "Tiberius", no matter what you may have heard).

A Skeptic Is A Man You Can Trust

"In line to get my badge for this year's skeptics conference in Pasadena, Calif., I recognized the little man standing behind me. He was bald, with a full, white beard, and he looked older than I would have imagined. 'Excuse me,' he said, 'is this the line for the skeptics meeting?' When I nodded, he looked me up and down and replied, 'Oh, I doubt that.'"

I love James Randi. And I'm glad for the change in strategy of CSICOP. Geller and his ilk are small fry compared to the really dangerous sort we're faced with today.
