Cool story though. That reminds me, he has a monetary prize of $1,000,000 to anyone that can prove something supernatural to him. Except that’s not James Randi, haha. Cool story though.

I went to Anime Weekend Atlanta (believe it or not, my supernerd girlfriend dragged me), and lo and behold, they were holding a Skeptic's Society discussion panel, with like 3 religious guys, a paranormal investigator, a couple scientists, and a couple 'professional' skeptics. The PI was discussing his evidence and proof of psychics and holy shit, Randi steps up to quiz the guy. This guy is smart, Mr. Randi. He dressed this guy down in front of a crowd of about 50 people and about 8 of his peers. Just made everyone realize that this guy was intelligent but full of shit and unwilling to submit his studies to real, peer-reviewed science. Randi even offered to pay for the guy's research if he'd submit his methods for arriving at his results! But no, the guy was a pussy and backed down. Totally awesome.

Although this isn't James Randi, James Randi is a hypercool guy (and magician) who devotes his time to being a skeptic, and debunking whatever he feels is BS, like paranormal activities, claims of telepathy, etc. Definitely awesome. Unfortunately, I do not know who Daniel Dennett is. Okay, clueless people.
