I'm glad John is distancing himself from randi ... makes it easier.
He sees the handwriting on the wall.

How is it that Randi expects people to believe him on hearsay , when he won't believe others on it? Not a level playing field in my opinion.

Here's Ruperts Report on Randi's Bulldust.

James Randi

The January 2000 issue of Dog World magazine included an article on a possible sixth sense in dogs, which discussed some of my research. In this article Randi was quoted as saying that in relation to canine ESP, "We at the JREF [James Randi Educational Foundation] have tested these claims. They fail." No details were given of these tests.

I emailed James Randi to ask for details of this JREF research. He did not reply. He ignored a second request for information too.

I then asked members of the JREF Scientific Advisory Board to help me find out more about this claim. They did indeed help by advising Randi to reply. In an email sent on Februaury 6, 2000 he told me that the tests he referred to were not done at the JREF, but took place "years ago" and were "informal". They involved two dogs belonging to a friend of his that he observed over a two-week period. All records had been lost. He wrote: "I overstated my case for doubting the reality of dog ESP based on the small amount of data I obtained. It was rash and improper of me to do so."

Randi also claimed to have debunked one of my experiments with the dog Jaytee, a part of which was shown on television. Jaytee went to the window to wait for his owner when she set off to come home, but did not do so before she set off. In Dog World, Randi stated: "Viewing the entire tape, we see that the dog responded to every car that drove by, and to every person who walked by." This is simply not true, and Randi now admits that he has never seen the tape.

Posts: 87 If Randi lied or not is completely irrelevant. Either Sheldrake can do what he claims to be able to do, and prove it, or he can't. If he can, then whether Randi lied or not will have no meaning, as Randi will be one voice of dissension among a myriad of scientists who have studied the evidence and were able to verify it as accurate. This would make Randi's statements against it irrelevant. If he can't, then it also makes no difference whether Randi lied or not, as he will have failed to convince anyone else either. Either way, who cares.
