IMO : The James Randi Affair

I'd been a lurker of this board for a long time.One of the topics I followed was "The Carlos Swett affair" I never understood why the thread was locked since it was still on debate.
In Mexico I had the opportunity to view the video tape One of my friends works on one of the biggest networks of this country and of the world.
When I saw the tape I finally understood why the James Randi Educational Foundation has the fear to comment about this topic :they failed under their own skeptical rules.

I am really dissapointed , since I am a skeptical beleiver , of how the researchers and the followers based their investigations in just some links of the web.
It is another story if you look the images at a proffesional tape IMO.

Yep USA, it's sad. Carlos' claim fails on so many levels, I think it is more likely that this new poster is Carlos or (if latin really is another person) latin.

Unless there is something about Spanish speaking people from the Americas being drawn to this ◊◊◊◊◊◊ up claim that Carlos thinks is paranormal.

It is really funny to me in a sick kinda way.
 
Did this so-called "Incredulo" really think he was going to fool anyone with this transparent post.
Heh Heh.

If you got two of those wind-up monkeys with the cymbals, and put them face to face and let them go at it, you would have a more intelligent debate than what occurred in that thread. There were some valid points being made, but they may as well have been made to a brick wall.
 
Dear Increadulo,
If that is your real name, why are you here.
You could make the challenge by making a dead horse walk.

So what is this proof, for those of us who are new?

And why should you give a flying fig about it?

Your post is better written than any of the suspects , so what are you trying to say. What is your point?

Are you just a troll?
 
Dear Troll,

It does not matter what is on the tape. The protocalls for the challenge were not followed and IMO (and apparently the opinion of the JREF) there was nothing to test.

But then you knew this already...

Now go away.

No, you haven't. You just registered last month.

One of the topics I followed was "The Carlos Swett affair" I never understood why the thread was locked since it was still on debate.
If you had really read all 44 pages of that thread, there would be no doubt in your mind that debate on the issue had ceased long, long before page 44.

Unless you are Carlos.

Hi, Carlos!
 
Have you ever considered the possibility that you might be wrong in your interpretation of your thoughts?

Have you ever considered the possibility that JREF did not made the correct research in this topic?

You are alluding to be intelligent-skeptics persons .
I didn't need to be registered to read this board.
Cut it out the trolling with me.

Incredulo (if that is your name), I talked with Carlos at length, both on this board, in the IRC chat room, and over MSN messenger. Trust me, he has no understanding of the scientific method or of the JREF challenge. His complaint relies entirely on a misinterpretation of one phrase in the page introducing the Challenge; anyone who's actually read the rules defining the Challenge knows that Carlos is wrong. It's that simple.

Carlos did not understand the scientific method of the research Andrew did on a copy of a video that's available on the Internet?
:rolleyes:

Do you consider yourself skeptic? :rolleyes:

Is Carlos here to tell us if you are saying the truth?:rolleyes:

I AM that I AM.

You are a troll, and apparently one who can not read English.

The contest rules are very straight-forward.

Go Away.
