After reading the "Sent in my Application Today" thread, I got to reading the Challenge Rules plus the FAQ's. The rules make it clear that the applicant and the JREF will agree beforehand what will constitute a positive and negative test result.
However, nowhere (nowhere) does it state who judges a positive or negative test result and who makes the final decision concerning failure or success.
The test-givers may say that the applicant (who actually "showed up") achieved a postive test result, but nowhere does it say in the formal rules that Randi can't nullify the result--for whatever reason--be it professional or otherwise.
If there is no rule allowing the test-givers to officially pronounce success or failure, what's the point in applying when the JREF can just nullify the process at will without fear of legal reprisals?
