How does the current financial crisis affect the Challenge funds?

I wish my portfolio had done half so well this quarter.

So, prof. Happy now?

The logical response for The Professor would be "November? That means that there is no guarantee that the money is not completely gone today!" :p

The JREF could show the prof a statement from noon today and he'd just reply "why not update in the last hour and a half?". He obviously intends to spew his nonsense as long as people keep replying...

DO NOT FEED! :tr:
 
Got an answer

The link was updated yesterday. The information should be there now. (And I have posted it in the thread you referred to.)

JREF Challenge Desk




I guess everyone who said to ask was giving good advice. Thanks everybody.

Considering his association with Callahan, it's quite possible he's trolling as part of something bigger. My only interest in this thread was the lack of updated data. Now that we see it was just a minor administrative oversight, I'm satisfied.
 
This is Great news!

I PLAY THE MUSIC AND ALISON CAN NOT RESIST THE DANCE!!!!

FINALLY ... This thread was started in SEPTEMBER and I'm pleased to see that Alison Smith has stepped up to the plate and got the job done.

Fantastic!!!

Now on to the next step :)

It's good to see the funds still exceed the Million required for the JREF MDC! Congratulations :)

You will never see a cent of it, so make like a tree and leave!

And has it also registered in your little troll brain that, back in September, nobody could have provided you with the data for November?

Also, will you finally apologize for making false accusations against JREF, and generally being an utter *******?
 
I think it's time members voted to ban The Professor.He is clearly a troll and has no purpose other than to start smear campaigns.

Such comments attempting to start campaigns against a member is itself a breach of the rules. Stop it now.

Post on topic, without personalising the thread against a member.

You can't seriously believe that the latest in a series of regular updates that have been going on for years only happened because you asked a question? Surely?

OTOH if you don't even understand the post hoc ergo propter hoc logical fallacy, that would actually explain a lot.
 
If no-one else can make an intelligent troll comment then I will. That statement is on the Randi.org website. Anyone can create their own website and publish almost any statement they like on it. This includes a statement that they have a $1+ million. It does not show that the money actually exists.

Now I go to bed. I think I will have fun in bed. Dreaming.

Wow! TP practically has an orgasm over an updated financial report on a Website. And naturally claims the credit for it. I imagine that people with egos like this expect the air to part when they enter a room. You must live a very mundane life if this sort of thing gets you going.

I hope nothing really exciting ever happens to you. Your head would probably explode.

Oh, BTW, for you, there is no "next step". Your challenge "application", if that's the word I am groping for, has been closed.

Alison Smith always gets the job done, Randi should give her a raise.

Please don't do this. It's an artifact from a printing error in the Dragon*Con flyer, and it's causing problems. Thank you.

I was just being humouros/ironic(possibly?)by referencing The Professors insistence at using her full name.I have no idea what you are referencing.:confused:

I suspect the point is that it's not her full name, though I'm not sure what problem it's causing.
 
Please stop this derail, before posts get moved, okay?

Did you guys read the fine print ... You know ... The word DEPOSITS ???????
Take a good look. And while you are at it, did any of you see the difference in the form itself?
Didn't think you did :)

I see a problem - a very big problem, in fact: there is nothing of substance for The Professor to whine about, and that´s driving him nuts.
 
The Professor, do you like horse burgers that much? You've beaten enough of the poor things to death to start your own fast food chain.
 
Maybe start a thread Proffessor about the "miracle" of the Hudson river plane crawsh.Another of your non paranormal claims.

Sorry off topic.

Not to generalize too much, but don't you often leave out very important details?

You are referring to the line "Cash, deposits and money market funds".

The part you left out was further down, "Interest received" and "Change in market value", $1156.50 and $14,077.78 respectively. Both positive numbers.

Were you trying to leave the impression that JREF had to deposit an additional half million? Or were you under that impression yourself?

Here, have a horse burger. Very tender.

I am so happy that the JREF is solvent! It did take a rather long time to prove it. But there appears to be a problem.
 
Seems he is trying the Jim Callahn approach now: post one message a week.He doesn't have any originality.
