tam 3

There's an "interesting" article on TAM 3 in this issue of the Fortean Times (the one with the Nazi on the cover). It's not very complimentary of the membership; OTOH, the author seems pretty impressed with Kramer.

A big thank you to SkepticScott and his wonderful crew of volunteers for making things run so smoothly at TAM 3. Special thanks to Scott for getting everyone organized and for being there whenever I needed him. Thanks to Claus for never leaving the merchandise table, to Renata for making sure...

For those who have attended both, of course.

I wanted to post this before I forgot! Thanks, everyone, for a fabulous time! Yes, the conference was great, but for me, the best part was spending time with all of you! I am missing all of you already... :( G6

Hi Everyone, I'll do my best to consolidate the final list of events and organizers for outside of the conference itself: Wednesday afternoon: Help stuff folders (contact SkepticScott) Wednesday dinner (6-7 pmish): Famous Thai Restaurant Place! (contact Renata) Wednesday night (9pm - 12 am)...

I did not see a thread on that already, if there was one, my apologies. I propose following the same pattern as last year. We can have it in my and Luciana's room (if she does not mind, of course!) Thursday evening, about an hour after the meeting breaks up. Saturday is the party, Friday Lance...

WOW! did everyone check out the $500 lunch with Mr.Randi. Only 12 people!!!! Cool!!!! Honestly, if I had it I would so buy a slot. And the sceance! Now that is very affordable and from what I hear would be great! TAM3 just geta better and better!

Check out the revised TAM III schedule on the JREF website. In addition to two extra speakers, there's two more events-- a special lunch with Mr. Randi that's capped at 12 people only and three nights of theatrical seances with Rick Maue!

... I just picked it up at my bank yesterday. Now what do I do to pay my TAM3 registration fee? What's up with PayPal (i.e. how does that work)? And do I qualify for the 'student' membership, or do I need an actual student ID card for that (because I don't have one).

Just wondering... I'm trying to book my hotel room at the Stardust online, but from the looks of things Friday and Saturday nights are sold out. Anyone else having this problem?

Hi, all. I'm new to the JREF forum, but a longtime fan of Randi and the skeptical movement. I'd love to attend TAM3 but I don't know anyone who can afford to go with me. Is there anyone from the Chicago area planning to attend? It would be great if I could meet someone ahead of time and...

Hey guys I'm new here so I guess I should introduce myself. Age/sex: 23/male Location: New Jersey, USA Occupation: Chemist (bout a year and half into the career, hopefully going to law school next year) Hobbies: Martial Arts, getting angry at stupid people, watching religious shows on TV...

The other "Who's going to Tam3" thread seems to be growing. So, just a new one here for one purpose: I might need a roommate. Other people are encouraged to reply or advertise as well.

I am planning on attending TAMIII. And it sickens me that a whole bunch of people who are going to be at TAM III (well, I suspect that these people will be there) speak English really, really well even though it is not their native language. Since I have neither the ability nor desire to go...

kittynh suggested someone start a thread like this and since nobody else has, I guess I'll do my bit (and keep working towards the magic 500 post level) If you plan to or want to attend TAM3 but are short on dough (or want to save it for the slot machines), put a note in here and see if you can...

Or for future TAMs. Might be interesting to book Dr. Dean Edell He's had a media platform that he's used to debunk bad science and pseudo medicine for some time. I remember hearing him on the radio 15 years ago. Benguin's post about slimming creams over in SMM&T made me think of him, because...

We are already seeing threads about potential guests for TAMIII. Why not collate them? I'm sure we'll see Julia Sweeney again, and I might drop by. :) So who do you want? Just a quick note, with a description. We should keep a separate thread for discussions if someone disagrees (and we could...

He is on LKL right now and is REALLY going off on religion!

As one of the many pissed off and jealous because a trip to Vegas just isn't feasable right now I'd like to nominate Biloxi because: A. The Bible Belt needs a wake up B. Casinos/Hotels with good accomodations, conference space, etc.. C. 1 Hour from New Orleans. D. Pretty beaches (but don't...
