Oh my word, what a small world. You must know my husband, as he often flies RC planes at Polipoli. (Gold Toyota pickup with the custom lumber rack.)

Anyway, back on topic, we are supposed to go for a ride in Waiehu tomorrow, so I will try and get some pictures up.

Taking on Mr Randi's challenge is a bit like climbing a mountain , Little 10 Toes .
When many others have failed, it is best not to go up the same route .
So at the moment I am skirting the flanks of the mountain looking for the best way up .
Normally, it is the preparation that is all inportant in climbing, and the time taken is well spent, so I will continue to probe till the way becomes clear .

The path could not be clearer:

1. State your claim in a proper application, where you
2. Propose a demonstration for said claim and
3. Define success and failure.
4. Do what you claim you can do and get a million clams.

It's that simple.

I am glad you used the term "sceptic" , meaning " a person who questions the validity or authenticity of something porporting to be factual " .

[...]

As apposed to "skeptic", meaning " blinkered thinking, group approval seeking, personality cult following forum junkie" .

Of course, as that would be a strawman.

I did discuss my hypothesis with him, Tricky .
He found it interesting, but thought it was a little "over the top" .

No ****.

The geologist, that I discussed the sandstone formations with, had actually studied them on site, for many years .
His opinion was from observation, not photographs .

And he still doesn't know what those are ? Someone give the poor guy a hand.

I don't think that the serpent had legs . It was a bit like an insect in that it underwent different stages of form .

And why don't you "think" that ?

It started out like a grub , grew wings and flew , then ended up as a giant slug like creature in old age , earth bound .

Ah, isn't making stuff up as you go fun ?

I am pleased you used the term " most unlikely" That is a quantum leap from "impossible" .
Click to expand...

I'm going to stick with "impossible".

In reality the serpents wing was more like the fin of a fish .

Uh-huh.

Taking on Mr Randi's challenge is a bit like climbing a mountain

And the risk of failing in just as hard on the ego.

I wouldnt mind taking up writing for a career , Chillzero , so if you could hustle a publisher for me I'll cut you 5% of the gross .
But for the time being I will have to settle for being a " woo " who is gunning for Mr Randi's cash .

And Little 10 toes , if you had read my posts you would have noticed that I have answered most of your questions , one way or another .

An observer watching me doing the trance thing would only see a half frozen old fart chanting on a cave floor . The sound would be interesting but no Hollywood style special effects .
So the only proof that I achieve anything is the knowlege that I bring back .

And the "sound chamber" is the dragons egg case .

Buzz, get your story straight please. I don't feel comfortable about calling you what I think you are, but you change your " truths " more often than a snake its skin.
 
You might be a bit slow, Little 10 Toes, but you are a stayer .
Quess what?
That dragons egg case just happens to be what you would call a "cave" . And it sits near the top of a mountain in the boonies .
Cool huh !
You must be from the I.R.S. .Hope you dont ever go through my books , you are thorough .

And Zep , where are these books with all the info ?
Sorry, forgot you are not reading these posts.

It is a bit like that isn't it Athiest .
But don't be to hard on them, they are catching on slowly .

I see that you are running your own "challenge", for two million bucks .
You had better hope no one wins it or good old N.Z. will go broke .

Since you seem to be coppying Randi, do we have to call you "The Amazing Athiest" . And is it true that you were cloned from one of Randi's toe nails back in the 50s ? This would explain many things .
