Adam Savage Joins JREF Board

[gerdbonk]

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

Plausible.

 

[smartcooky]

Plausible.

Confirmed!

 

[arthwollipot]

Good.

 

[Skeptic Ginger]

Where's the evidence?

 

[gerdbonk]

I surmise we'll have to wait until Savage confirms it or JREF releases the video of Randi's closing remarks.

 

[gerdbonk]

Or we strap Adam to Randi and see if he can fly.

Very Cool

 

[Olowkow]

Excellent news! Can he fix the forum?

I don't know, but he definitely could arrange for the server to explode!

 

[Olowkow]

I don't know, but he definitely could arrange for the server to explode!

After this evening's server performance, I'm thinking it's just about to do so all by itself.

I wonder how long before he works out that the forum exists? Or more seriously before he joins the forum?

Do you really want him running into mr Lindman or a gun thread? No good could come from that.

People with a strong media presence don't generally hang out in places like this. Ends up with more attention than they would like.

Given that he has been associated with the JREF for some time now he has probably been aware of this place already anyway. If he does show up it may be just to look around. Or register an account with a different name and be anonymous to us.

 

[Olowkow]

Maybe he and Jamie could use their considerable talents and funds to tackle a new myth:

JREF slowdowns are due to insufficient server memory.

• Confirmed.
• Plausible
• Busted

Who says he hasn't been here all along?

I thought it already had exploded.

Ward

I hope you are right. But I doubt it.

 

[George]

Ward

Apparently the chaps name is Savage? Lets see if he's into Bayesian statistics. I wonder if he could convince his ginger assistant to tag along. I'm thinking calendars, you know, fund raising for a new server or something.

 

[Manopolus]

I, for one, would like to welcome our new skeptical overlord.

Ward

That was my thought. He might not be too active as time and the need to keep a low profile might constrain him, but he's probably lurked a bit.
