    When we moved to Xenfora some of the signature options didn't come over. In the old software signatures were limited by a character limit, on Xenfora there are more options and there is a character number and number of lines limit. I've set maximum number of lines to 4 and unlimited characters.

    What has JREF done lately?

    It's time to update my will. For a few years, I have had a donation in my will, no strings attached, with JREF as the recipient. But checking the JREF website, it looks moribund since Randi died. Even before that, it wasn't looking too healthy or active. I'm reluctant to throw money down a...

    The Big Announcement at TAM

    Adam Savage Joins JREF Board

    James Randi announced at TAM 2014 that Adam Savage of Mythbusters has joined the JREF Board of Directors. Plausible.

    JREF vs "The Truth Movement".

    That's about it. As far as I can see, we are the only ones paying any attention. It's us vs them. Does anyone have any evidence this is not true?

    So what does James Randi do for a living?

    Is he a carpenter like Jesus, or does he make his entire living by being a sceptic? If he is not working, how long has it been since he has had a real job? Personal response only please.

    Is JREF a Charity?

    I wouldn't know where to find the answer to the question, but I am presuming that the word "charity" has a legal meaning in USA. Simple question requiring a yes/no answer: Is JREF a charity within the meaning of the word in US law? Anyone able to point me to the correct legislation? The...

    Congratulations, Mr. President

    Well, it seems the JREF has a new president, and I have to say I think Phil Plait is a great choice. I've only seem him talk a couple of times and he was, quite frankly, awesome, and I'm sure many people have enjoyed his badastronomy blog. In addition, I think it's nice to have someone with a...

    Can't read the Swift articles!

    http://www.randi.org/joom/ I am baffled and frustrated. Why can't I see the commentary? Is it just me? I checked with two different browsers, I get nothing. Is this an error or is it me? Is this the right place to ask? Where would one report this?

    A very serious question

    A close friend of mine, whose opinions I trust, claims that any response from the email address randi@randi.org is extremely unlikely to be from the actual James Randi. Clearly this address must receive hundreds of thousands of emails every day. How can anyone be sure that if a response comes...
