JAMES RANDI: SKEPTICISM’S GREAT ACHILLES

Interesting blog

Nasty-spirited gloating piece. Felt like I needed a shower after reading it.
The truth will or will not come out and each side will put their own spin on it whatever the outcome.
I've always had a lot of respect for Randi. Far more of 'us' get a living at what we do than do our skeptic chums from their arid faith and calling but Randi has always managed to earn a decent crust over many years and good luck to him for that. Top magician and mentalist in his day too.
His book Flim Flam is a classic.

Well... that was an 'eye opener' of a read! Though I'm sure it won't get as much air time as his 'debunking' antics.

I rather fellt for Randi when he came out as gay so late in life. He is of that generation where they had to suppress or hide sexuality if they were in the public eye. The Randis amongst our skeptic chums I think serve a useful shared interest with us in exposing the fraudulent.
Never met him but read the books and seen him on TV he strikes me as being an old fashioned gentleman.
