tam 4

I just got my TAM4 DVDs in the mail today. I was just breezing through a bit of each segment on each disc, just to make sure they are in working order. (They are, as far as I can tell). I haven't watched the whole thing yet, of course. However, I could not seem to find the "Candid shots...

Sorry if I missed the announcement but I would have archived the site if I new it was going offline. Can a replica of the site be put up? Do you need someone to buy some site names?

It took a month, for various reasons, but my personal account of my attendance of The Amaz!ng Meeting 4 is finally up on my web site! It tries to be accurate, short, and funny; but invariably strays slightly from such superfluous goals. You can find it at...

Found this in today's Review Journal gossip column: SIGHTINGS Julia Sweeney, formerly of "Saturday Night Live," at the James Randi Educational Foundation-hosted The Amazing Meeting 4 at the Stardust over the weekend. Penn Jillette of Penn & Teller hosted a Q&A session with the Discovery...

1) The running gun battle between the skepchicks and a loose group of slot jockeys near the penny slot machines. 2) Jumping up and shouting "INTERFACE WAR!!" after the 'helpful' suggestions were given when Powerpoint failed for the sixteenth time. 3) Carolyn Porco 'accidently' leaving in the...

There is a place in Las Vegas where you can shoot guns of various types and styles. It is called, not surprisingly, The Gun Store. Several JREF Forum folks went there last year (the sight of rebecca with an automatic weapon was enough to stun everyone to speechlessness) and had a great time...

Girl 6 has decided to attend TAM4. I'm glad. She wants everyone to know that she will be producing the forum badges, as she did last year. If you want your real name on the badge, please PM her on Skeptical Community or use this email address: girl6@mail.com Hutch, can you send the latest list...

Okay, maybe I have missed it, but is there a plan to have a Pajama Party on Friday Night at TAM? I've got the PJ's. :D

Hi, my name is Phil. (Hi, Phil!) I haven't had a Mintie in six days. (no applause, just scattered disbelief) Right. When I was in Oz last year, I got addicted to Minties. I must have them! Alynda has sent some to me, and so has Richard Saunders, but alas, they go quickly. Even with the...

I remember we had a thread for this last year so since it's getting close to TAM4 we should start it again. . . If you're on a tight budget and are looking for a room share to save $$$ on the hotel post a notice here. (BTW I'm fine, I'm not looking for a room to share :) )

Maybe it's just me; punishment for waiting so long to register. When I try to pay for registration online, I get this: We are sorry, we are experiencing temporary difficulties. Please try again later. If this error occurred while making a payment, avoid duplicate payments by checking your...

Well, I started the one last year, so I may as well start this year's Basically, if you are looking for a roommate to help defray the costs for TAM4, put a message in this thread and hopefully someone will reply or PM you to see if your compatable. Don't know if last year's thread led to any...

We've already announced the dates for TAM4 are Jan. 26-29, but I wanted to add that the room rates at the Stardust will remain the same as they were for TAM3....$60 for weekdays and $90 for Friday and Saturday.

I have noticed that one of the most popular parts of JREF has been ignored at the TAMS. I would therefore propose the following. We get together a list of the most popular debates for a presentation by a few members, followed by an open debate from the members on the floor. As there has been...

OK, down the page kittynh discussed taking a JREF Cruise and it was discussed pretty throughly. I posted some preliminary info there and have done a little research since then. I'll post it here and if there is any interest I'll continue to pursue it. I have made several presumptions--The...

Hi Everyone! WOO HOO!! Did we party or did we party?! During the day, we were treated to stimulating lectures. And, during the night, we got to know each other better! TAM3 was fabulous! :D Okay, so, if you all remember, we got a pink sheet to rate speakers and so forth. We also had room...
