The PROPHET YAHWEH, Maker of UFO's

[jmercer]

Oh, wow. I mean... words fail me.

 

[Blue Bubble]

Not just words fail me

This guy needs real psychiatric help.

He is clearly a lunatic.

 

[Manny]

If he gives you grief about his name again, call him Mr. Watkins. That's apparently his real name.

A quick net search seems to show that even many of the woos don't like this guy. Here's an "expose" page.

 

[Hitch]

Never mind the naysayers, I'm giddy with delight that the Prophet Yahweh has decided to step forward.

This is gonna be fun.

 

[shemp]

I might just have to change my vacation plans so I can be in Vegas that day.

"I can not download your application because the power that works through me is to high for that."

Oh, man.

 

[KRAMER]

Before you ask, I'll tell you:

Randi wants to test the guy. Randi says he's a fraud and that we MUST expose him.

I think he's insane.

The Prophet, I mean.

 

[shemp]

I'm going to be in Vegas on July 15th, and I claim that I will make UFO's appear!

So if it happens, you have to give me half!

I'd have the media there when you do it. With big, beautiful zoom lenses on their cameras.

"Beginning next week, spaceships will appear overLas Vegas," summoned on-demand by a man who claims he's in touch with an alien power.

The story is dated June 8, 2005, so I guess it's "next week" right now.

Anybody see anything?

 

[Mid]

Personally I worry the aliens may not be entirely sane for hanging around with people like this

 

[Francois Tremblay]

My bet is that our friend Yahweh is a scammer, and no test will take place. Anyone wanna bet ?

I bet you're right. That what you meant?

 

[Steev]

There's some video clip of this guy in action online somewhere... supposedly a clip of an actual news broadcast.

Silliness. I'm excited that this feller will be tested! I hope he goes through with it! I hope he's an alien from outer space!

 

[Bodhi Dharma Zen]

Im glad to see that he is taking the test. It will be interesting. BTW, Who lives in Las Vegas?

 

[jmercer]

Nobody knows. What happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas, y'know.

 

[Bronze Dog]

My guess: A long period of incomprehensible drivel followed by a rough draft of a protocol, and a long period of time where he tries to sneak a partner in, featuring a great deal of waffling on some issue. That is when he'll make some form of threat resulting in Kramer closing his file. In other words, something sort of like Wellfed. Afterwards, he will spend some time on the JREF forums flaming people and stating each and every myth about the prize.

In other words, I'm thinking he'll be fairly close to Wellfed.

 

[KRAMER]

Or perhaps he won't resort to such nonsense and we can set up a test during TAM4 in January, for all to see.

That alone would be worth the price of admission.

On second thought, it wouldn't be worth a penny.

 

[Bronze Dog]

If he can succeed, it'd certainly be worth admission (and maybe $1M for him). If not, it depends largely on precisely how foolish he can make himself look.

 

[Beleth]

Here's what I predict will happen.

Negotiations will happen. The demonstration wil go as planned. Except all that will materialize is one of those little white dots like what is on the tape.

PY will say, "there you go, I win."
The testers will say, "no, that's not good enough, it's in the agreement that that's not good enough."
PY will say, "yes, that is good enough, that is a UFO and I have done all that I have agreed to."

And then it gets unsightly.
