== Speech recognition software ==&lt;br /&gt;
Could we use the YouTube API and auto captions to get a rough draft? &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;--[[User:Geneocide|Geneocide]] ([[User talk:Geneocide|talk]]) 23:17, 24 January 2013 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
: I&#039;d love to see the results. From what I&#039;ve read the accuracy is low enough as to not be useful but it&#039;d certainly be interesting to see.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;--[[User:Rwh86|Rwh86]] ([[User talk:Rwh86|talk]]) 08:47, 25 January 2013 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ooh, it looks like there are some interesting things going on with Google speech recognition.  There&#039;s a [https://www.google.com/intl/en/chrome/demos/speech.html demo app] that lets you talk for as long as you like.  The first thing I&#039;m going to have to do is to work out how to get chunks of the SGU podcast into it.  I&#039;m sure there&#039;s a way to couple the audio out and audio in on my linux machine, and if not, a simple cable from the headphone to the mic jack aught to do the trick.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;--[[User:Rwh86|Rwh86]] ([[User talk:Rwh86|talk]]) 09:03, 11 April 2013 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
: So, after doing two episodes this way, what&#039;s your assessment of the process? I looked at [[SGU Episode 402|episode 402]], and it looks like it&#039;ll be almost as much work to decipher that wall o&#039; text as it would have been to just type it in from scratch. Is it easy to set up, technically?&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;-- [[User:Av8rmike|Av8rmike]] ([[User talk:Av8rmike|talk]]) 13:28, 13 April 2013 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
:: I&#039;ll have to go through and do the proof reading process before I know.  Technically speaking, it&#039;s super easy.  All I have is my headphones right next to the mic on my laptop, then I go to that google page, click the button and press play in vlc.  So I imagine that it woudl be possible to get better results by either using a dedicated cable from the headphone jack into the mic jack, or by using some kind of software solution to pipe the sound into this web app.  As far as I can see the quality varies.  When one rogue is speaking clearly it does really well.  When they talk over each other it&#039;s basically useless.  Also, foreign accents completely confuse it.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;--[[User:Rwh86|Rwh86]] ([[User talk:Rwh86|talk]]) 15:36, 13 April 2013 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
::: I tried it, but for whatever reason, the Google speech test page just didn&#039;t work for me; It kept asking for permission to use the microphone but wouldn&#039;t start recording. It doesn&#039;t matter; there&#039;s still stuff like categorization and formatting that has to be done manually anyway.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;-- [[User:Av8rmike|Av8rmike]] ([[User talk:Av8rmike|talk]]) 14:42, 14 April 2013 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;

There&#039;s also a [https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/transcribe-transcribe-aud/ogokenmicnjdfhmhocanoemnddmpcjjm chrome extension for transcription] that allows you to speed up, slow down, pause etc the audio all from the same window as your text editor.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;--[[User:Rwh86|Rwh86]] ([[User talk:Rwh86|talk]]) 08:46, 13 April 2013 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;

== Sci or Fi stats ==&lt;br /&gt;
Hello everyone.  I have an idea that is not completely relevant to SGU Transcripts, but I thought this would be the best place to ask this question.  For a while now I have been wanting to have a little more fun with the results of Science or Fiction, beyond the simple annual tabulation of scores.  Most importantly, I would like to measure the GWB Effect! Specifically, I would like to begin tabulating data on each Science or Fiction, and making it available to anyone who wants to perform an analysis on it.  Things we could measure are: result for each player (right/wrong), order of answers given, number of &amp;quot;science&amp;quot; options, existence of theme, etc.  There are other things as well.  I think it would be a fun project for SGU fans who are also stats geeks.  Anyone else interested?&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;--[[User:Manyou07|Manyou07]] ([[User talk:Manyou07|talk]]) 08:52, 24 January 2013 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
: Sounds great!  I know that [[User:Teleuteskitty]] has done some stuff.  Would it be possible to do something cool with google docs?  It&#039;d be nice to do some graphs too.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;--[[User:Rwh86|Rwh86]] ([[User talk:Rwh86|talk]]) 14:29, 24 January 2013 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
: Thanks!  I opened a thread at the SGU Forums for further discussion: http://sguforums.com/index.php/topic,44888.0.html[http://sguforums.com/index.php/topic,44888.0.html]&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;--[[User:Manyou07|Manyou07]] ([[User talk:Manyou07|talk]]) 06:41, 31 January 2013 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;

== Word count ==&lt;br /&gt;
Hey. I&#039;ve seen the [[Special:Statistics|Statistics]] page, but I&#039;ve also noticed that when I search, it tells me the word count of pages. Is it possible to get some sort of Total word/character count? I personally would like to see.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;--[[User:Geneocide|Geneocide]] ([[User talk:Geneocide|talk]]) 01:13, 11 January 2013 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
: There&#039;s also [[Special:ContributionScores]] but I think it has a tendency to massively overvalue small changes over larger ones, so people who do a lot of small corrections get higher scores than those who have transcribed a lot of text which is obviously not what we want.  I haven&#039;t been able to find an extension that gives a total word count, but a while back I did do it manually by dumping all of the pages to text using some bodgy scripts on my linux box, then doing a word count on those text pages.  It was on 2012-11-28 and we had transcribed 910,050 words, 5,128,984 characters, and we had completed 57 of 384 (15%) full SGU episodes and 78 of 113 (69%) 5x5 episodes.  I&#039;ll do a refresh of these stats when I get a chance, but it&#039;s quite laborious.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;--[[User:Rwh86|Rwh86]] ([[User talk:Rwh86|talk]]) 10:00, 11 January 2013 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
: Just casting my eye down the episode lists, I get 65 SGU (17%) and 83 5x5 (73%) episodes complete right now.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;--[[User:Rwh86|Rwh86]] ([[User talk:Rwh86|talk]]) 10:06, 11 January 2013 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
: OK, I just did another run: 1,055,851 words, 5,937,159 characters.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;--[[User:Rwh86|Rwh86]] ([[User talk:Rwh86|talk]]) 12:30, 11 January 2013 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
: I&#039;ve been working on some programs to generate some statistics for both the transcripts and the editing histories. However, I am not sure about the best way to share the results. For example, as of Oct 8, 2013, there are 170 episodes transcribed in whole or part containing 9,846,222 characters of text in 1,615,743 words. I can also generate word counts (the 10 most common words are: the, that, and, to, of, a, I, you, it, is), word lengths (the longest word is &amp;quot;electroencephalograms&amp;quot;), Rogue counts, guest lists, and more, if anyone is interested.&lt;br /&gt;
: For transcribing and editing, Av8rmike has the most edits (829), but Rwh86 has added the most characters (2,396,629). I can generate copious quantities of HTML tables with the results, but would need some help setting up and linking to some sort of custom statistics page. Let me know if there is any interest in posting this kind of information. Thanks.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;--[[User:Jim Gibson|Jim Gibson]] ([[User talk:Jim Gibson|talk]]) 19:26, 9 October 2013 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;

== Dead episode links ==&lt;br /&gt;
Quoted from [[Talk:SGU_Episode_127]] for general discussion:&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;blockquote&amp;gt;If we just put in dead links to episodes that don&#039;t exist, wouldn&#039;t that create a list of the most referenced yet to be made episode pages? Wouldn&#039;t that possibly be good?&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;--[[User:Geneocide|Geneocide]] ([[User talk:Geneocide|talk]]) 02:01, 29 December 2012 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/blockquote&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
:True, it would add them to [[Special:WantedPages]], although the numbers there are bumped up by having consecutive episodes transcribed with automatic navigation links etc. . I like the idea of noting the most needed episodes, but I personally think it&#039;s best to avoid dead links in text where possible, even though these would automatically update when the page becomes available. I proposed a slightly different way on [[Template talk:Link needed]] a while back - we could use that method to add a reference with the dead link, bumping them up the &#039;Wanted&#039; list, whilst keeping an eye on [[:Category:Needs internal links]]. Which isn&#039;t perfect. Alternatively, we could:&lt;br /&gt;
#create the referenced pages and add a &#039;priority pages&#039;category&lt;br /&gt;
#make a page listing all episodes to be transcribed, marking which are referenced&lt;br /&gt;
:What do you think?&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;--[[User:Teleuteskitty|Teleuteskitty]] ([[User talk:Teleuteskitty|talk]]) 02:47, 29 December 2012 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
::I&#039;m a big fan of whatever is easiest.  Am I right in thinking that this would be the broken (red) link approach? &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;--[[User:Rwh86|Rwh86]] ([[User talk:Rwh86|talk]]) 16:35, 3 January 2013 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
:::I think so, yep. And just for the record, if that&#039;s what you guys think is best, I&#039;m more than happy to go back through pages switching &#039;link needed&#039; templates to dead links &amp;amp;ndash; I&#039;m more motivated to take a uniform approach than to get any of my over-complicated ideas in place :)&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;--[[User:Teleuteskitty|Teleuteskitty]] ([[User talk:Teleuteskitty|talk]]) 22:08, 3 January 2013 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
::::I&#039;ll offer my reasoning on the &amp;quot;Link needed&amp;quot; template, since I&#039;m the one that created it. My idea for it was just as a &amp;quot;placeholder&amp;quot; for when I was transcribing/proof-reading and one of the rogues makes reference to something from a previous episode, but I &#039;&#039;didn&#039;t&#039;&#039; know which episode it is, indicating for someone to find it at a subsequent date. If you know what episode is being referenced and there isn&#039;t a page created already, I&#039;d say by all means go ahead and put in the dead link to save another person the trouble of figuring out which episode it should be.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;-- [[User:Av8rmike|Av8rmike]] ([[User talk:Av8rmike|talk]]) 04:50, 7 January 2013 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
:::::Ah, I see! That makes sense. Looks like that&#039;s the probably the consensus, so I&#039;ll start switching them over&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;--[[User:Teleuteskitty|Teleuteskitty]] ([[User talk:Teleuteskitty|talk]]) 07:50, 7 January 2013 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Steve Novella Show ==&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Call for volunteers&#039;&#039;&#039;: I&#039;ve posted a framework for [[SGU_Episode_49|episode 49]] and did the first segments, then marked it as &amp;quot;open&amp;quot; to try to attract some more help. This one is The Steve Novella Show, as in the one he did all by himself, including Science or Fiction and Name That Logical Fallacy. It should be very easy to do, especially for someone who has trouble telling different voices apart. Sorry I can&#039;t offer any T-shirts. =)&lt;br /&gt;
: What exactly needs doing on this episode? I don&#039;t want to listen to everything if I don&#039;t have to.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;--[[User:Geneocide|Geneocide]] ([[User talk:Geneocide|talk]]) 19:54, 28 December 2012 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
::Oops, I just now noticed I never signed my comment. D= You don&#039;t have to transcribe the entire thing if you don&#039;t want to; you can do just a segment here or there.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;-- [[User:Av8rmike|Av8rmike]] ([[User talk:Av8rmike|talk]]) 22:11, 28 December 2012 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
:::Well, maybe it&#039;s more trouble than it&#039;s worth but if you know that there&#039;s nothing missing up until some point, what that point is would be nice. It&#039;s a little unclear just looking at the transcript so far... at least to me.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;--[[User:Geneocide|Geneocide]] ([[User talk:Geneocide|talk]]) 00:24, 29 December 2012 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
::::It&#039;s been transcribed up to the [[SGU_Episode_49#Agnosticism_.289:03.29|Agnosticism]] e-mail. The rest has just been copied over from the show notes page. I haven&#039;t even formatted the text to break it into paragraphs, which may be what made it unclear to you.&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;-- [[User:Av8rmike|Av8rmike]] ([[User talk:Av8rmike|talk]]) 16:15, 29 December 2012 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Mike Lacelle ==&lt;br /&gt;
Hey everyone. Was thinking we should maybe try to do something in honor of Mike Lacelle. The only thing I came up with was marking episodes in which he appears as priority and getting them transcribed as soon as we can. If someone found the episodes and marked them I know I personally would work on them before other episodes. Any other ideas?&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;--[[User:Geneocide|Geneocide]] ([[User talk:Geneocide|talk]]) 07:14, 15 November 2012 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
: That sounds good to me.  How about I put a highlight on the front page to replace the t-shirt competition, seeing as that&#039;s been won now ;) &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;--[[User:Rwh86|Rwh86]] ([[User talk:Rwh86|talk]]) 17:08, 16 November 2012 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;

We should really have the link on the left sidebar that says &amp;quot;Help&amp;quot; link to [[Help:Contents]] instead of https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:Contents. It&#039;s &#039;&#039;really hard&#039;&#039; to find your way into the local Help pages.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Hey, guys! I&#039;m new here (heard about the project on the recent episode) and today added two sections in episode 349: [[SGU Episode 349#Nuclear Clock (34:53)|Nuclear Clock]] and [[SGU Episode 349#NDE and Lucid Dreaming (40:44)|NDE and Lucid Dreaming]]. Let me know how they look! It&#039;s my first time transcribing anything on this scale, and I think I&#039;m getting the hang of it, but I have to admit that I&#039;m a bit of a perfectionist and I feel strange not having &#039;&#039;more&#039;&#039; direction as far as formatting (I realize it would probably be very difficult/time-consuming to enforce super-specific standards at this stage). I looked at some of the completed transcripts to get an idea of what others were doing and tried to use my best judgment from there. I think I&#039;m ready to attack a full episode, but it might take me a while to get through it. There are still some things I&#039;m not entirely clear on, including exactly how the categories/redirects work, so I&#039;m sure I&#039;ll ask for some help once I&#039;ve finished transcribing a full episode (and probably while I&#039;m in the middle of it). Also, I wanted to say that I usually don&#039;t have any trouble distinguishing voices (including Jay&#039;s and Bob&#039;s), so if there are any episodes/sections that need a second pair of ears for that specifically, I can definitely help out. Going forward, is this page the best way to communicate with other members? Thanks!&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;--[[User:Jacquie o|Jacquie o]] ([[User talk:Jacquie o|talk]]) 11:16, 24 October 2012 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
:Hi Jacquie!  Those transcripts you&#039;ve done look absolutely fantastic!  In terms of direction, we&#039;re just feeling our way though here. :)  I suppose the most important thing is to get as much of the content done, and so long as the meaning is accurate, that&#039;s the most important thing.  I also try to think &amp;quot;what if someone was running this through google translate?&amp;quot;, i.e. would it translate well?  That&#039;s leading me to leave out &amp;quot;you know&amp;quot; and &amp;quot;um&amp;quot; and those types of things to make the transcript flow better.&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;Great to hear you can tell Jay and Bob apart, if you have time and want some lighter work, doing some proof reading might be right up your alley then.  Some people do transcripts and leave, say B?: or J?: if they&#039;re not sure, so you could possibly go through and fix those.&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;&amp;lt;p&amp;gt;Going forward, we&#039;re trying to work on a place to help members communicate.  The best I&#039;ve got so far is this: [[Special:WikiForum]], but it&#039;s a bit bare bones, so when I get some time I&#039;m going to try to integrate something a little more sophisticated.&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt;--[[User:Rwh86|Rwh86]] ([[User talk:Rwh86|talk]]) 19:53, 31 October 2012 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;

Hello all. I just joined. Jumped in and proofread [[SGU Episode 3]], some very minor copy edits, added a fair number of links, and subdivided a particularly long interview.  I also added some &amp;quot;dead links&amp;quot; to pages I was figuring we should have locally: NESS and JREF.  Or should I go back and change them to external links to THE Wikipedia?&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;--[[User:Bshirley|Bshirley]] ([[User talk:Bshirley|talk]]) 03:34, 28 November 2012 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
:  Hi Bshirley.  Thanks for the proof reading, it&#039;s very appreciated.  It&#039;s always fun to add links during the proof reading process, I find I do that a lot too.  I really like the subdivisions within the interview breaking it into its topics, that&#039;s something I might try to do in future; it would really help with deep linking to a particular subject of discussion.  As for the dead links, I&#039;m not so sure.  I guess I see our site as not so much providing pages on particular topics à la Wikipedia, and am more inclined to link off to Wikipedia for those kinds of things.  We can always improve them on Wikipedia if need be.  Just my opinion tho.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;--[[User:Rwh86|Rwh86]] ([[User talk:Rwh86|talk]]) 15:10, 28 November 2012 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;

Hello everyone, &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;HNY and thanks for all the great work you&#039;re doing here. I&#039;m new to transcribing and to this whole Wiki editing stuff but hope I won&#039;t make too much of a mess. &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;I posted a [[5X5_Episode_37|5x5 Episode 37]] for a start so I guess it&#039;s ready for proof-reading. I didn&#039;t go through the whole Help section yet, just copied the formatting from another verified episode. So if anyone can take a look and check what I got wrong, I&#039;d appreciate it. &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;I&#039;m not an English native speaker, so: (a) Though I tried to stick to the American spelling, there may be some impurities; (b) I&#039;m never sure about punctuation. Guess I tend to abuse/misuse/misplace it. &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;One more thing: I wasn&#039;t sure what to do with all the &amp;quot;likes&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;you knows&amp;quot;&#039; etc. so I left them in. Don&#039;t know what the best practice is. Oh, and I didn&#039;t have too much trouble telling Jay and Bob apart. Beginner&#039;s luck? ;) &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Keep up the good work! &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;--[[User:Lvovo|Lvovo]] ([[User talk:Lvovo|talk]]) 00:10, 5 January 2013 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
:Great stuff!  Welcome on board.  I&#039;ve proof read 5x5 #37 for you and I must say, I take my hat off to you.  As someone who has some familiarity with a foreign language (having lived in France for a year), I must say you did an amazingly good job.  I&#039;d say your error rate is pretty much the same as transcripts done by native speakers. :)&lt;br /&gt;
:* Re: American/British spelling: I don&#039;t really care, but I&#039;m a bit more laissez faire than most other people on here. :) &lt;br /&gt;
:* Re: likes/you knows: I tend to leave them out unless they modify the meaning of the sentence. &lt;br /&gt;
:* Re: Bob/Jay: I&#039;m beginning to suspect that this is a talent, as well as a skill. &lt;br /&gt;
:One thing that might help is the [[Help:Contents#Useful_pages|skeleton pages]]. These are blank templates you can use when starting a new transcript.  Cheers for your help! &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;--[[User:Rwh86|Rwh86]] ([[User talk:Rwh86|talk]]) 12:56, 5 January 2013 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
::Wow! Appreciate the thumbs up. That&#039;s very encouraging. And thanks for the proof read. Apart from obvious misspellings, you corrected the very bits I was least sure of and that&#039;s a good sign, I guess :) Care to look at [[5X5_Episode_41|5x5 #41]]? Hope it&#039;s not worse than the first one. Cheers! &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;--[[User:Lvovo|Lvovo]] ([[User talk:Lvovo|talk]]) 13:28, 6 January 2013 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
:::Yep, done.  That was even better than the first one, just one change really: [http://www.future-perfect.co.uk/grammartips/grammar-tip-practise-practice.asp practise vs practice].  I&#039;m a native speaker and I still get those mixed up. :) &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;--[[User:Rwh86|Rwh86]] ([[User talk:Rwh86|talk]]) 15:57, 6 January 2013 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
::::Thanks :) And now [[5X5_Episode_42|#42]] is up for grabs. This is fun ;)&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;--[[User:Lvovo|Lvovo]] ([[User talk:Lvovo|talk]]) 18:35, 6 January 2013 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Hi! Another newbie here, had a go at transcribing [[5X5_Episode_63| 5x5 #63]]. I haven&#039;t had much experience with wiki, but looks like I managed to save the page without crashing the website. The only thing so far I&#039;m not sure about is changing the &#039;status&#039; and the &#039;category&#039; on the episode list page (maybe I&#039;m not permitted to change this?). I&#039;ve tried to weed out my antipodean spelling. Please let me know of any stupid rookie mistakes!&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;--[[User:Moodswing|Moodswing]] ([[User talk:Moodswing|talk]]) 13:02, 17 September 2013 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
:Hi Moodswing, thanks for helping out, it looks great! Sorry I&#039;d neglected to add info on this to the help pages, the whole template in a template thing can be a bit confusing. You update the 5X5 episode list by editing [[Template:5X5 episode list]], scroll down to the relevant entry, and update the variables in the &#039;5X5 list entry&#039; template. I&#039;ve added a bit more info on this to the [[Template:5X5 list entry]] page. So you would change &amp;lt;code&amp;gt;status = incomplete &amp;lt;/code&amp;gt; to &amp;lt;code&amp;gt;status = complete&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt;, pick your categories from the [[:Category:Topic|Topic page]], and add them as &amp;lt;code&amp;gt;category1 = ...&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt; etc. I hope that makes sense. I thought you might like to have a try for yourself, but if you don&#039;t fancy it, just pick your categories and let us know - we&#039;ll happily make the changes for you.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;--[[User:Teleuteskitty|Teleuteskitty]] ([[User talk:Teleuteskitty|talk]]) 18:00, 17 September 2013 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;

== Formatting ==&lt;br /&gt;
=== Display ===&lt;br /&gt;
Is there a way to get &amp;lt;nowiki&amp;gt;&amp;lt;blockquote&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/nowiki&amp;gt; formatted a little bit. Maybe a light background color and/or some automatic large quote marks? Right now it&#039;s not necessarily worth using, imho.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;--[[User:Geneocide|Geneocide]] ([[User talk:Geneocide|talk]]) 19:43, 23 October 2012 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
:Yep, we could probably change the CSS.  I&#039;ll see what I can do.  Do you have a site in mind that I could use as a basis (i.e. to steal the css from)?&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;--[[User:Rwh86|Rwh86]] ([[User talk:Rwh86|talk]]) 19:43, 31 October 2012 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
::It looks like something has changed to add a light beige background, which achieves the goal. Personally I think it could be a little more distinct, by my aesthetic tastes are poorly defined and not widely popular. I didn&#039;t have any examples in mind, but the first one on [http://css-tricks.com/examples/Blockquotes/ this] site looks good to me. It shows an example of what I meant by the &amp;quot;large quote marks&amp;quot;. I am okay with having issues I bring up be un-addressed. I just write down things I think of. I leave the risk/reward analysis to those with better information on the subject. Still, I think the better looking the site is the more likely people are to use it.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;--[[User:Geneocide|Geneocide]] ([[User talk:Geneocide|talk]]) 21:17, 31 October 2012 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;

: They &#039;&#039;do&#039;&#039; look good. :)  I didn&#039;t intentionally change them, but perhaps they changed with the new 1.20 mediawiki version (along with user registration briefly being broken). &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;--[[User:Rwh86|Rwh86]] ([[User talk:Rwh86|talk]]) 13:14, 20 December 2012 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;

=== Quickie with Bob ===&lt;br /&gt;
Help! I&#039;m totally green and have a question: what am I supposed to do about &amp;quot;Quickies with Bob&amp;quot;? The one in Episode 414 comes in the middle of the news segments... and maybe this issue should be addressed in a Help section somewhere (sorry if I missed it)?&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;--[[User:Fallible|Fallible]] ([[User talk:Fallible|talk]]) 16:47, 18 August 2013 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
:Hi Fallible, thanks for helping out on the site. It&#039;s a good question, and we don&#039;t yet have a set format for that. I searched through what&#039;s already been done, and I like the format in [[SGU Episode 387]] and [[SGU Episode 400]]. In these, it&#039;s treated as a new, 2nd level segment, followed by a 2nd level header &amp;quot;News items continued&amp;quot;, and 3rd level headers for the remaining news items. If people agree this format works, I&#039;ll go back and change the other transcripts, and add a note in the help section.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;--[[User:Teleuteskitty|Teleuteskitty]] ([[User talk:Teleuteskitty|talk]]) 18:32, 18 August 2013 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
::Thanks for the quick reply! I like it (the formatting proposal). The only comment I have is, are &amp;quot;Quickies with Bob&amp;quot; always in the news items section of the podcast? Because if not, we should agree on a format for how to interrupt a second level item with no sub-items (I suppose the same &amp;quot;X continued (time-stamp)&amp;quot; would work).&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;-- [[User:Fallible|Fallible]] ([[User talk:Fallible|talk]]) 22:31, 18 August 2013 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
: G&#039;day Fallible.  What I do is start a new second-level heading for the quickie with Bob.  If the quickie occurs in the middle of the news items or whatever, I just do a &amp;quot;News items continued&amp;quot; afterwards, see: http://www.sgutranscripts.org/wiki/SGU_Episode_414.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;--[[User:Rwh86|Rwh86]] ([[User talk:Rwh86|talk]]) 08:46, 19 August 2013 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
:: Yeah, if there&#039;s no objections, I&#039;ll change the others over to this format in a couple of days.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;--[[User:Teleuteskitty|Teleuteskitty]] ([[User talk:Teleuteskitty|talk]]) 20:44, 1 September 2013 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
:::Done!&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;--[[User:Teleuteskitty|Teleuteskitty]] ([[User talk:Teleuteskitty|talk]]) 09:26, 7 September 2013 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Extra references ===&lt;br /&gt;
Another question about formatting(?): the news items sometimes include links to references which have been copied from the episode notes. If I think there are additional references which add more information, how can I (or even, should I) add them to the episode transcription? One possibility is to add more links at the start of a news item, but somehow that seems inelegant to me (because there is no distinction between the original link or links from the episode notes and additional links).&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;-- [[User:Fallible|Fallible]] ([[User talk:Fallible|talk]]) 19:36, 1 September 2013 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
:Good question, I often add them as references to the relevant bit, eg. when they introduce that bit of the story. That way they&#039;re clearly not from the SGU guys, which is important, as you say, as it takes a value judgement on what to link to. Hope that helps.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;--[[User:Teleuteskitty|Teleuteskitty]] ([[User talk:Teleuteskitty|talk]]) 20:41, 1 September 2013 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Adding descriptions ===&lt;br /&gt;
And yet another question about formatting. In my episode, Bob, Steve, and Rebecca talk about the various ways the word &amp;quot;fungi&amp;quot; can be pronounced, but I currently have no way to distinguish between these pronunciations in the transcription. Would it be OK if I added IPA as is sometimes done in Wikipedia? The drawback is that this might break searching for phrases. &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;--[[User:Fallible|Fallible]] ([[User talk:Fallible|talk]]) 19:36, 1 September 2013 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
:This hasn&#039;t been formally acknowledged before, but I think we usually do an approximation of the sounds in speech marks, eg. &amp;quot;Fun-guy&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;Funjee&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;Fungee&amp;quot;. This is more accessible than IPA, which I personally had to look up and would have no idea how to use. That&#039;s my thoughts, anyhow.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;--[[User:Teleuteskitty|Teleuteskitty]] ([[User talk:Teleuteskitty|talk]]) 20:41, 1 September 2013 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
::Thanks, Teleuteskitty, I ended up adding the &amp;quot;speech markup&amp;quot; inside parentheses. My impression is that there&#039;s a partially declared convention that anything in parentheses is descriptive text added by the transcriber and not anything spoken by the rogues. Please correct me if I am wrong, and consider making this an officially declared convention. &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;--[[User:Fallible|Fallible]] ([[User talk:Fallible|talk]]) 20:27, 5 September 2013 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
:::You&#039;re right, I&#039;ve definitely done that. So far, we&#039;ve tried not to be too prescriptive about  formatting as this might inhibit contributions. I personally prefer guidelines and uniformity, but there are others who find it too constrictive. In this instance, I think you&#039;re right that we should agree a standard for descriptive text to separate it from the actual episode. I&#039;m revising the help section soon, and will address this. does anyone have feedback about using regular parentheses for descriptive text? e.g. (imitating Schwarzenegger)&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;--[[User:Teleuteskitty|Teleuteskitty]] ([[User talk:Teleuteskitty|talk]]) 21:16, 5 September 2013 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
:::I usually use parentheses as well, mostly because I haven&#039;t run into too many situations where parentheticals might be confusing. For things like &#039;&#039;[sic]&#039;&#039;s where someone misspeaks or I need to indicate an editorial change, I usually use square brackets.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;I forgot to mention that I also tend to use italics, as in &#039;&#039;(laughs)&#039;&#039; just to further indicate it&#039;s not part of the speech.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;-- [[User:Av8rmike|Av8rmike]] ([[User talk:Av8rmike|talk]]) 21:26, 5 September 2013 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
::::Ah, thanks Av8rmike, your comment &amp;quot;made the light bulb over my head light up&amp;quot; that I&#039;ve been using &amp;quot;(laughter)&amp;quot; wrong. A lot of the time I should have used &amp;quot;(laughs)&amp;quot; because I meant that the particular rogue who was currently being transcribed laughed and the help explicitly states that &amp;quot;(laughter)&amp;quot; indicates general laughter of all or most of the rogues. As for the italics, I&#039;ll have to think about it and get back to you if I think it&#039;s worth the extra effort. (Oh, and wow, I didn&#039;t think of adding [sic] and admire you for having the energy for it, the rogues are misspeaking soooo much in my episode...) [[User:Fallible|Fallible]] ([[User talk:Fallible|talk]]) 22:01, 5 September 2013 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Science or Fiction ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I just transcribed [[SGU_Episode_581#Science_or_Fiction_.281:09:38.29|Science or Fiction (581)]]. I veered from some examples I looked at. I added subheadings for the sections: &amp;quot;Cara&#039;s Response&amp;quot;, [[SGU_Episode_581#Steve_Explains_Item_3|Steve Explains Item 3]], etc. &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
I find it is much more readable to me.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Does anyone have opinions on this? is it okay? Should we make it part of a boilerplate somewhere? --[[User:bshirley|Bill Shirley]] ([[User talk:bshirley|talk]]) 02:40, 12 September 2016 (AEST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Citations suggestion ===&lt;br /&gt;
I don&#039;t want to appear to be dictating policy. But I was looking for a format for citing external sources and there wasn&#039;t one. I went to Wikipedia and used one of their simple citation formats. (They have an &#039;&#039;extremely&#039;&#039; complex and useful citation template with customized support in the editor. Could this software be updated to their version? would that get their citation support?)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I put this together based on what I found. I think it is desirable on many of the links taken from the SGU show notes. I am suggesting it be added after the [[Help:Getting_Started#References|References]] subhead in [[Help:Getting_Started]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
--[[User:bshirley|Bill Shirley]] ([[User talk:bshirley|talk]]) 04:50, 12 September 2016 (AEST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--- place responses here, it will be easier to follow than after the example ---&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Citations ===&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;(This is part of the discussion thread immidialaty above this)&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
When providing a link to an external article, new item, or web page, it is desirable to fully cite the item. You should use the &#039;&#039;&#039;ref&#039;&#039;&#039; tag to provide citations. This will cause a footnote to be created and added to the bottom of the page. If portions of the citation are not readily available, particularly an author or publisher is not obvious, they can be omitted. The date you are editing (and thus confirming the accessibility of the page) is generally the &#039;&#039;retrieved&#039;&#039; date you should use. If there are multiple authors, separate them be semicolons.&lt;br /&gt;

== Index of core concepts ==&lt;br /&gt;
Had an idea for a project we could work on in conjunction with the transcription. We should keep track of places where the rogues explain a core concept in detail (a lot of 5x5 episodes I imagine) and link to that explanation from other places in the transcription. Paradolia, Occam&#039;s razor, selection bias, things like that. We could centralize them into a single page, as well. Within the canonical rogue explanation we can link out to wikipedia or other sources.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;--[[User:Geneocide|Geneocide]] ([[User talk:Geneocide|talk]]) 19:06, 18 October 2012 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
: Sounds like a great idea, somewhat compatible with the TIL (Today I Learned) sections.  I think centralising them into a single page would make them much easier to find... I know that when I&#039;m transcribing and I hear someone say &amp;quot;we discussed that on a previous podcast&amp;quot; it&#039;d be nice to have a place to go to find that, though perhaps searching would be sufficient.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;--[[User:Rwh86|Rwh86]] ([[User talk:Rwh86|talk]]) 19:43, 31 October 2012 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;

== Example page(s) ==&lt;br /&gt;
Hi all. I think it would be a good idea to pick an episode that is the canonical one. One where whatever the current agreed upon standard is implemented that can be pointed to or referenced whenever needed. Just a thought. Oo... also, we should be careful about links. We need to use nofollow when appropriate so quacks don&#039;t get any google juice from our work.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

Hello everyone! I heard Rob on the SGU and it sounded like a fantastic idea to contribute here. I transcribed a 5x5 episode to start (#39), and I&#039;ll probably do a few more before I go whole hog and tackle a full SGU episode. If anyone wants to proof-read that episode I did, that would be fantastic. I know the punctuation is way off there.

== Time formats ==&lt;br /&gt;
Hi guys, I&#039;ve noticed we&#039;ve used 2 different time-stamp formats. When it gets past the hour mark, I use the h:mm:ss format, but some pages use mm:ss, e.g. 78:12. As the time-stamps form the links for sections, I figure this is pretty important. My argument for using h:mm:ss is that, in my experience, that&#039;s what the majority of audio software and mp3 players use, plus I think it&#039;s more natural for us to think of time this way. What do you guys think?&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;--[[User:Teleuteskitty|Teleuteskitty]] ([[User talk:Teleuteskitty|talk]]) 17:50, 8 June 2012 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
:Kitty, the only reason I was using mm:ss was because that&#039;s what was already in use on the existing pages. =P I agree that h:mm:ss makes more intuitive sense and is used in more places, so I&#039;m all in favor of switching over.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;-- [[User:Av8rmike|Av8rmike]] ([[User talk:Av8rmike|talk]]) 13:04, 12 June 2012 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
::Thanks for responding. Rwh86&#039;s away this week, so I&#039;m gonna be cheeky, assume he&#039;s cool with it and change them over.

== Categories ==&lt;br /&gt;
Hi guys, and thanks for starting this project! I don&#039;t have a lot of time to devote to doing whole transcripts, but I&#039;d like to start categorizing the wiki pages, like &amp;quot;SGU Transcripts&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;Live Episodes&amp;quot;, etc. I think it would also be helpful to have next/previous episode links on each page, either at the bottom or in the infobox. Any opinions?&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;--[[User:Av8rmike|Av8rmike]] ([[User talk:Av8rmike|talk]]) 15:30, 3 May 2012 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Hi Av8rmike, thanks for your interest, any help is always appreciated, big or small. We were thinking of using the categories from the [http://theness.com/roguesgallery/ Rogues gallery], plus others more specific to the podcast, e.g. guests. I think adding a category for live episodes is a great idea. We&#039;re also considering using redirect pages for categorizing podcast sections separately. &lt;br /&gt;
:I agree, previous/next buttons would be good (in fact I was just playing with some graphics for them). However, I&#039;m not sure how to get a wiki template to recognise the episode number and add/subtract automatically, do you have any ideas about that? Otherwise we can just input them manually.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;--[[User:Teleuteskitty|Teleuteskitty]] ([[User talk:Teleuteskitty|talk]]) 16:18, 3 May 2012 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;

::I took a stab at adding some categories to [[SGU_Episode_354]] to give an idea of how that would work. I don&#039;t know offhand how to do the auto-numbering in wiki templates, but from looking at the help pages for templates, you can do almost anything with them. I could probably do some experimenting and see how far I get.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;--[[User:Av8rmike|Av8rmike]] ([[User talk:Av8rmike|talk]]) 18:17, 3 May 2012 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;

:I often find this difficult, and it&#039;s quite likely I&#039;ve already made mistakes based on this, but mb you&#039;ll get better as you&#039;re listening closely. I find Bob more nasal.

:You&#039;re definitely not useless!  The most important thing is to get a first pass of the transcription done, corrections are then much quicker/easier.  How about you put a question mark after the letter if you can&#039;t work out who&#039;s speaking?  So like:&lt;br /&gt;
:&lt;br /&gt;

Hi guys...First time transcriber here! I was inspired by Tim Farley&#039;s presentation at TAM 2012 to see where I could help out - and figured I could at least try this. I just transcribed and posted [[5X5_Episode_4]], but I&#039;m not familiar enough with the Rogues to distinguish voice identities. The only voice IDs I&#039;m somewhat sure of are Steve&#039;s and Rebecca&#039;s (the others I guessed at). If anyone can help with voice IDs in Ep. 4, that would be great. (Maybe I&#039;ll get better at the voices in the future -grin-) &amp;lt;br&amp;gt;--[[User:Skepticat|Skepticat]] ([[User talk:Skepticat|talk]]) 03:47, 27 July 2012 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
:Hi Skepticat, and (as Av8rmike said) welcome to the team! I proof-read [[5X5 Episode 4]] and added the speakers. The page is great, took me no time to add them. In future, if there&#039;s a lot of lines you can&#039;t attribute, don&#039;t worry about adding times to each, just the first in a cluster. Hopefully that will save you a bit of time too :)&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;I often find Bob and Jay hard to distinguish, but I think Bob&#039;s just a little more nasal, and it sounds like Jay might use a desktop mic instead of one close by his mouth.

Heck, I ended up riding down in the same elevator with the SGU crew at TAM (I think it was the first morning?) and I didn&#039;t fully realize who they were until later.

== Professional transcribers ==&lt;br /&gt;
Has anyone explored the idea of hiring a professional transcriptionist to do the work? This could be much faster, but there would be a cost involved. Perhaps a donation fund could be set up for SGU listeners to pay for it. Another podcast that goes this route is the &amp;quot;Security Now&amp;quot; podcast from Steve Gibson and Leo Laporte.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;-- [[User:128.200.139.53|128.200.139.53]] ([[User talk:128.200.139.53|talk]]) 17:08, 18 April 2012 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
:I&#039;m a professional trascriber and I would love to contribute towards this project. VLC is good but not optimized for transcription purpose. I would suggest NCH&#039;s ExpressScribe software and it&#039;s free. Also if you are spending a lot of time on this project, I would recommend investing on a foot pedal. It shouldn&#039;t cost you more than $25.

== Fact lists ==&lt;br /&gt;
Hi guys,&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;I&#039;m guessing this is the best place to put project discussions, let me know if there&#039;s another way - I&#039;m new to Wiki editing.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Regarding time stamps for the sections, I&#039;ve entered them into the headings of [[SGU_Episode_348]] using &amp;lt; small &amp;gt; tags. This shows them smaller in the actual headings, but the same size in the contents list. What do you guys think?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I&#039;ve also been thinking of ways to make these transcript pages as useful as poss without causing ourselves too much extra work. One way might be to include a kind of bullet-point list of facts from the episode, as they often have throw-away comments that are interesting. E.g. in ep.348, they talk about nut allergies, and that cashew nuts contain the same allergy-inducing resin as poison-ivy. We could lift these from the main text as we go and build a list at the end. It wouldn&#039;t make much difference if someone&#039;s reading the whole transcript, but it might make a nice feature for flicking through them.&lt;br /&gt;
Just a thought, I figured it would be better said earlier than later. What do you think?&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;Cheers,&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;--[[User:Teleuteskitty|Teleuteskitty]] 04:14, 17 April 2012 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:I like the idea of compiling a fact list at the end of the transcription for each episode. It&#039;s just up to the individual transcriber I suppose. Regarding the &amp;lt; small &amp;gt; tags, I definitely think it would help to have the timestamps in these transcriptions, and having it in the section title makes it visible in the table of contents. The other option is to use the wikibox on your user page, which I think is very nice, containing the image, quote, times and links in one place. It just depends on whether or not other people like it too.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;--[[User:Jay One|Jay One]] 20:11, 17 April 2012 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::Thanks, I have no experience making wikibox templates, so if someone else knows more about these, mb they&#039;d like to build one?

&lt;br /&gt;
I&#039;ve inserted a rough draft of a fact list at the bottom of [[SGU_Episode_348]]. What do you guys think? It was easy to put together, but I didn&#039;t know what to call it.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;--[[User:Teleuteskitty|Teleuteskitty]] 05:54, 19 April 2012 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
:I originally thought it was a bad idea until I went and looked at your example.  Now I think it&#039;s &#039;&#039;awesome&#039;&#039;, I love it! :)  Currently you&#039;ve called it &amp;quot;Today I Learned...&amp;quot; which I think is good, but can anyone think of a title that&#039;s better?

&lt;br /&gt;
::Yay! Thanks. For the name, the only thing I thought, was I wanted to be careful not to assert them as hard facts. Also, we should mb point out that they are not part of the transcript, but taken from it after.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;--[[User:Teleuteskitty|Teleuteskitty]] 16:16, 19 April 2012 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Objectives ==&lt;br /&gt;
Hi guys like others I&#039;ve often thought about this as a project but put off by the amount of time that it would have taken one person, the main reason I thought about doing this was to be able to search the transcripts when needed, example: if someone asked me a question on Homoeopathy I would be able to use my smartphone to give an answer based on what the SGU have talked about in the past, as I generally take what the guys say as fact.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Do you think that what I&#039;m taking about would be possible using this WIKI project??&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Looking forward to starting and completing my first SGU Transcript :-)&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;--[[User:Manontop|Manontop]] 09:31, 16 April 2012 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:Hi Manontop.&lt;br /&gt;
:Sure, I think that would be one of the most important uses of these transcripts.  My ideas for having transcripts of the SGU episodes are to facilitate linking, searching and accessibility:&lt;br /&gt;
:&lt;br /&gt;
:* Linking.  We have headings throughout the podcasts so that it&#039;s possible to link directly to a specific segment, for example [[SGU_Episode_352#Aristolochia_Nephropathy|Aristolochia Nephropathy]] (internal wiki link) or [http://www.sgutranscripts.org/wiki/SGU_Episode_352#Aristolochia_Nephropathy Aristolochia Nephropathy] (external link).&lt;br /&gt;
:* Searching.  Currently there are (at least) two ways to search.  Either using Google or the built-in search box in the top right.  If you want to use Google to search only this site, you can do so by using the &amp;quot;site:&amp;quot; term in your query.  E.g. your Google query would be [https://www.google.com/search?q=site:sgutranscripts.org+titanic+disaster &amp;quot;site:sgutranscripts.org titanic disaster&amp;quot;].  Google is the king of them all, so I have installed proper semantic web (SEO) support.  When a transcript is completed I go through and insert tags to important concepts that are covered in the podcast.  This helps Google (and other search engines) know what is important about that page.  You can see these by opening a transcript and viewing the source of the page.  Then look for the &amp;lt;meta name=&amp;quot;keywords&amp;quot; content=&amp;quot;...&amp;quot;&amp;gt; tag.  There are two components to this, tags that are site-wide such as &amp;quot;skeptics, sceptics, scepticism&amp;quot; etc. followed by tags that are local to a particular page such as &amp;quot;titanic, tragedy, ss, californian, space, junk&amp;quot; etc.  Of course, Google also uses the page content when indexing.&lt;br /&gt;
:* Accessibility.  Quite simple really; people who can&#039;t listen to the podcast for any reason (deafness etc.) can now read the transcripts instead.&lt;br /&gt;

==SGU Legal fund==&lt;br /&gt;
You guys thinking about doing anything to help out with the SGU legal fund raising? Something to consider at least. I was thinking on the main page the 2nd T-shirt contest winner announcement could be replaced.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;--[[User:Geneocide|Geneocide]] ([[User talk:Geneocide|talk]]) 19:15, 15 August 2014 (UTC)&lt;/div&gt;</summary>

&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;div&gt;This page covers the basics of setting up and editing a page, for more detailed information, see the list of [[#Useful_links|useful links]] below. If you have any other questions or suggestions, please add them to the [[SGUTranscripts:Community portal|Community portal]], where one of us will be happy to help.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If you&#039;d like to just try your hand at transcribing, we suggest you start with an SGU 5x5 as these are much shorter, or a single segment from an episode.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Adding pages to episode lists ==&lt;br /&gt;
By adding your page to the episode list templates, they will appear on both the [[Main Page]], and the individual [[SGU Episodes]] pages. Currently, all SGU 5X5 episodes have been added to the [[5X5 Episodes]] list, for information on how to edit entries in the [[Template:5X5 episode list]], see [[Template:5X5 list entry]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It&#039;s easy to add your transcript of choice to [[Template:SGU episode list]]. Click &amp;quot;Edit&amp;quot; on the top right and you will see the wiki markup for that page.  Don&#039;t worry, it&#039;s quite simple.  Find the spot where your transcript belongs chronologically, and add the episode link, date and status template. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Adding a status template indicates what stage the transcription is at by including a linked icon. &lt;br /&gt;

Putting the page name between double square brackets inserts the link to the page (see the [[#Links|links section]] below). Click &amp;quot;Show preview&amp;quot; to make sure everything looks right. Add a summary to describe your edit, something like &amp;quot;added link to episode 355&amp;quot;, and hit &amp;quot;Save page&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Now, if you go to the [[Main Page]], or [[SGU Episodes]], you will see your new edit in place. If you click on the link, you will be taken to an edit box for your new page, and you&#039;re good to go.  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Reserving episodes/segments ===&lt;br /&gt;
To indicate that you are working on the transcript for a whole episode, add the [[Template:transcribing all|transcribing all]] template at the top of the page, and insert your user name (optional):&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;pre&amp;gt;{{transcribing all&lt;br /&gt;
|transcriber = user name&lt;br /&gt;
|date        = yyyy-mm-dd&lt;br /&gt;
}}&amp;lt;/pre&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This will appear on your page like this:&lt;br /&gt;
{{transcribing all&lt;br /&gt;
|transcriber = user name&lt;br /&gt;
|date        = yyyy-mm-dd&lt;br /&gt;
}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If you would like to work on a single section of the transcription, then you can use the [[Template:transcribing|transcribing]] template instead, placed in the relevant section on the page:&lt;br /&gt;
{{transcribing&lt;br /&gt;
|transcriber = user name&lt;br /&gt;
|date        = yyyy-mm-dd&lt;br /&gt;
}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Editing pages ==&lt;br /&gt;
If you want to get transcribing right away, we are more than happy for you to do a text-only transcript, as this is really the lion&#039;s share of the work.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You can edit any page by clicking the &amp;quot;Edit&amp;quot; tab at the top of the page, which allows you to edit the whole page. If you just want to edit one section, you can click on the &amp;quot;Edit&amp;quot; link to the right of the section heading.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After entering your content into the edit box, enter a description of what you did in the summary field, then click &#039;preview&#039; to ensure that your work is being displayed as intended.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It&#039;s generally best to check the preview before saving a page in order to avoid excessive entries in the [[Special:RecentChanges|Recent changes]] log. This log shows all changes made to the website, and is useful for checking for new additions, such as messages in the [[SGUTranscripts:Community portal|Community portal]]. However, be careful not to lose your work by navigating away from the edit page.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When you&#039;re happy with the page, or want to save your progress and come back to it later, click &#039;save page&#039;, which will show your newly edited page in all its glory. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Edit summary ===&lt;br /&gt;
When saving a page, it is considered good practice to add a brief summary of the edit in the field above the save and preview buttons. For example, &amp;quot;Interview segment transcribed&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;transcript completed&amp;quot;, or &amp;quot;proof-read to 45:30&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Adding a summary helps us quickly see what&#039;s been done on a page, and distinguishes between different revisions of the page should users wish to compare edits or return to an earlier version. All versions of a page are automatically saved in their revision history, and can be viewed by clicking on the &#039;View history&#039; tab of the page itself, or from the link in the [[Special:RecentChanges|Recent changes]] log.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You can set your user preferences to show an alert if you try to save a page without entering a summary. When you are logged in, a &#039;My preferences&#039; link appears at the top of the screen. If you click on this, and go to the &#039;Editing&#039; tab, you will see a list of check-boxes, including one stating &amp;quot;Prompt me when entering a blank edit summary&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Adding comments ===&lt;br /&gt;
If you would like someone to look over your transcription to help with distinguishing between Rogues, or to help with any parts of the transcription, it is helpful if you can insert a comment stating the time in the podcast at that point, and post a message on the [[SGUTranscripts:Community portal|Community portal]]. Comments are entered between &amp;lt;code&amp;gt;&amp;lt;nowiki&amp;gt;&amp;quot;&amp;lt;!--&amp;quot; and &amp;quot;--&amp;gt;&amp;quot;&amp;lt;/nowiki&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt; in the editing box and do not appear on the saved page. For example:&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;pre&amp;gt;&amp;lt;!-- Help needed to distinguish Rogue speaking at 1:02:48 --&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/pre&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
makes that text visible only in the editing box, not the page itself. This means that any user that tries to help with this problem will be able to get to the root of the issue quickly.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Comments can also be very useful when you want to come back to a section later, for example to add to the [[Help:How to Contribute#Today I Learned...|&#039;&#039;Today I Learned...&#039;&#039; list]], or to add links.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Wiki mark-up ==&lt;br /&gt;
Here, we briefly describe the most commonly used wikitext markup and HTML tags for pages on this site. &lt;br /&gt;
HTML tags take the form &amp;lt;code&amp;gt;&amp;lt;nowiki&amp;gt;&amp;lt;tag&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/nowiki&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt; to start, and &amp;lt;code&amp;gt;&amp;lt;nowiki&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/tag&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/nowiki&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt; to end, encompassing the text that the tag applies to. Most require a closing tag, but not all of them (e.g &amp;lt;code&amp;gt;&amp;lt;nowiki&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/nowiki&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt; and &amp;lt;code&amp;gt;&amp;lt;nowiki&amp;gt;&amp;lt;references/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/nowiki&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt;).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For more detail, see [[metawikipedia:Help:Advanced_editing|Meta-Wiki: Advanced editing]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;amp;otimes;  If you would like to leave the mark-up to someone else, or if you have any questions or suggestions, just put a note in the [[SGUTranscripts:Community portal|Community portal]], and someone will be happy to help out. (see [[#Community_Portal|notes on the Community portal]] below)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Headers ===&lt;br /&gt;
These are used to mark the different podcast segments, and are automatically incorporated into a table of contents that appears at the top of the page. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
An example of the different headers used in transcription pages can be found at the [[Episode skeleton]] page&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--??? sentence case for segments but not sub-sections???--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
{| class=&amp;quot;wikitable&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;

! width=&amp;quot;20%&amp;quot;| Appearance on page&lt;br /&gt;
! width=&amp;quot;20%&amp;quot;| What you type&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|Headers for each of the different segments of the podcast are made by using 2 &#039;equals&#039; signs.&lt;br /&gt;
These are second level headers.&lt;br /&gt;
|&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;font-size: 150%; margin-bottom: .6em; border-bottom: 1px solid #aaa; page-break-after: avoid;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Podcast Segment&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
|&amp;lt;pre&amp;gt;==Podcast Segment==&amp;lt;/pre&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|Headers for subsections within the podcast segments are made by using 3 &#039;equals&#039; signs.&lt;br /&gt;
These are third level headers.&lt;br /&gt;
|&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;font-size: 132%; font-weight: bold; margin-bottom: .3em; page-break-after: avoid;&amp;quot;&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
Segment subsection&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
|&amp;lt;pre&amp;gt;===Segment subsection===&amp;lt;/pre&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|We also include the time at which podcast segments start in a small font, using the &amp;lt;code&amp;gt;&amp;lt;nowiki&amp;gt;&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/nowiki&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt; and &amp;lt;code&amp;gt;&amp;lt;nowiki&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/nowiki&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt; tags.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!-- (to be confirmed)??? --&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
|&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;font-size: 132%; font-weight: bold; margin-bottom: .3em; page-break-after: avoid;&amp;quot;&amp;gt;News Item 2 &amp;lt;small&amp;gt;(24:32)&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
|&amp;lt;pre&amp;gt;=== News Item 2 &amp;lt;small&amp;gt;(24:32)&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;===&amp;lt;/pre&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
|}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There are a couple of guidelines to follow on these:&lt;br /&gt;
* Quickies with Bob should be second level headers&lt;br /&gt;
** If these occur between news items, then they should be followed by a second level header &amp;quot;News items continued&amp;quot; without a time stamp, and a third level header &#039;&#039;with&#039;&#039; time stampsfor the next news items. (e.g. [[SGU Episode 349]])&lt;br /&gt;
* Questions and Emails use a second level header for the section title, and third level headers for each question/email (e.g. [[SGU Episode 357]])&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Line breaks and paragraphs ===&lt;br /&gt;
{| class=&amp;quot;wikitable&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
! width=&amp;quot;40%&amp;quot;| Description&lt;br /&gt;
! width=&amp;quot;20%&amp;quot;| Appearance on page&lt;br /&gt;
! width=&amp;quot;20%&amp;quot;| What you type&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
| To start a new paragraph, leave an empty line between text in the editing window. &lt;br /&gt;
Use this to separate lines by different speakers&lt;br /&gt;
| S: This is the first line&lt;br /&gt;
R: This is the second line&lt;br /&gt;
|&amp;lt;pre&amp;gt;S: This is the first line&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
R: This is the second line&amp;lt;/pre&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
| Starting a new line in the editing window does not appear on the actual page as a line break.&lt;br /&gt;
| This is my first lineThis is my second line&lt;br /&gt;
|&amp;lt;pre&amp;gt;This is my first line&lt;br /&gt;
This is my second line&amp;lt;/pre&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
| To start a new line, use the &amp;lt;code&amp;gt;&amp;lt;nowiki&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/nowiki&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt; tag, which doesn&#039;t require a closing tag.&lt;br /&gt;
You can use this on the same line, or on a new line.&lt;br /&gt;
|&lt;br /&gt;
This is my first line&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;This is my second line&lt;br /&gt;
|&amp;lt;pre&amp;gt;This is my first line&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;This is my second line&amp;lt;/pre&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

! width=&amp;quot;20%&amp;quot;| What you type&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
| Words in italics are indicated by double apostrophes.&lt;br /&gt;
These can be used to signify when a speaker emphasizes a word. &lt;br /&gt;
| We want to &#039;&#039;emphasize&#039;&#039; words&lt;br /&gt;
| &amp;lt;pre&amp;gt;We want to &#039;&#039;emphasize&#039;&#039; words&amp;lt;/pre&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
| Words in bold are indicated by triple apostrophes.&lt;br /&gt;
| We want to &#039;&#039;&#039;emphasize&#039;&#039;&#039; words&lt;br /&gt;
| &amp;lt;pre&amp;gt;We want to &#039;&#039;&#039;emphasize&#039;&#039;&#039; words&amp;lt;/pre&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
| Superscript text is placed between &amp;lt;code&amp;gt;&amp;lt;nowiki&amp;gt;&amp;lt;sup&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/nowiki&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt; and &amp;lt;code&amp;gt;&amp;lt;nowiki&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/sup&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/nowiki&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt; tags&lt;br /&gt;

|-&lt;br /&gt;
| Subscript text is placed between &amp;lt;code&amp;gt;&amp;lt;nowiki&amp;gt;&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/nowiki&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt; and &amp;lt;code&amp;gt;&amp;lt;nowiki&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/nowiki&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt; tags&lt;br /&gt;
| Water: H&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;2&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt;O &lt;br /&gt;
| &amp;lt;pre&amp;gt;Water: H&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;2&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt;O&amp;lt;/pre&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
| Special characters can be inserted using wikitext.&lt;br /&gt;
For a list of special character codes, see [[metawikipedia:Help:Advanced_editing#Special_characters|Meta-Wiki - Advanced editing]]&lt;br /&gt;
| &amp;amp;iuml;  &amp;amp;eacute; &lt;br /&gt;

This indents the text from both margins.&lt;br /&gt;
| &amp;lt;blockquote&amp;gt;All the world&#039;s a stage, And all the men and women merely players&amp;lt;/blockquote&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

|}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Links ===&lt;br /&gt;
The default source for links used here is Wikipedia, unless there is good reason to use an alternative source. This helps to keep things uniform across transcript pages, and also means that you don&#039;t have to search for the &#039;&#039;ultimate&#039;&#039; website to explain the subject.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{| class=&amp;quot;wikitable&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
! width=&amp;quot;40%&amp;quot; |Description&lt;br /&gt;
! Appearance on page&lt;br /&gt;
! What you type&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
| Wikipedia links can be inserted using [[Template:W]]&lt;br /&gt;
To use alternative text, insert &amp;lt;code&amp;gt;|&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
| {{w|James Randi}}&lt;br /&gt;
{{w|James Randi|Randi}}&lt;br /&gt;
| &amp;lt;pre&amp;gt;{{w|James Randi}}&lt;br /&gt;
{{w|James Randi|Randi}}&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;/pre&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
| Internal links (pages on sgutranscripts.org) are given within double square brackets.&lt;br /&gt;
To use alternative text, insert &amp;lt;code&amp;gt;|&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
| [[Main Page]]&lt;br /&gt;
[[Main Page|Home]]&lt;br /&gt;
|&amp;lt;pre&amp;gt;[[Main Page]]&lt;br /&gt;
[[Main Page|Home]]&amp;lt;/pre&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
| Internal links to sections of pages are identified using &amp;lt;code&amp;gt;#&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
| [[Help:Getting Started#Wiki mark-up]]&lt;br /&gt;
|&amp;lt;pre&amp;gt;[[Help:Getting Started#Wiki mark-up]]&amp;lt;/pre&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
| If an internal link is used, but no such page exists, the link is displayed in red.&lt;br /&gt;
| [[Birds vs Monkeys]]&lt;br /&gt;
|&amp;lt;pre&amp;gt;[[Birds vs Monkeys]]&amp;lt;/pre&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
| To use different text for internal links, add a pipe-line between the page name and the text.&lt;br /&gt;
| [[Help:Getting Started#Wiki mark-up|Mark-up]]&lt;br /&gt;
| &amp;lt;span style=&amp;quot;font-size:90%&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&amp;lt;pre&amp;gt;[[Help:Getting Started#Wiki mark-up|Mark-up]]&amp;lt;/pre&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/span&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
| To assign external links to text, add a space after the URL, insert the required text and enclose using single square brackets.&lt;br /&gt;
Remember to include &amp;lt;code&amp;gt;&amp;lt;nowiki&amp;gt;http://&amp;lt;/nowiki&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
| [http://www.theskepticsguide.org/ SGU website]&lt;br /&gt;

|-&lt;br /&gt;
| If no text is assigned to a link within single brackets, it appears numbered.&lt;br /&gt;
This should be avoided, and references should be used in cases where it is not appropriate to embed the link in text. ([[#References|see below]])&lt;br /&gt;
| [http://www.theskepticsguide.org/]&lt;br /&gt;
| &amp;lt;pre&amp;gt;[http://www.theskepticsguide.org/]&amp;lt;/pre&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
=== References ===&lt;br /&gt;
When it does not make sense to assign a link to words in the transcription, you can use references.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!-- ???agree criteria??? --&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
References can include both text and URLs, and appear as super-scripted numbered links on the page. These link to a reference section, usually inserted at the bottom of the page, which in turn links back to the point in the text where the reference was made. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
References are usually placed &#039;&#039;after&#039;&#039; punctuation. &amp;lt;!-- ???insert link for conventions of referencing??? --&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{| class=&amp;quot;wikitable&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
! width=&amp;quot;40%&amp;quot; | Description&lt;br /&gt;
! Appearance on page&lt;br /&gt;
! What you type&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
| Mark each reference separately at the relevant point in the text, using &amp;lt;code&amp;gt;&amp;lt;nowiki&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/nowiki&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt; and &amp;lt;code&amp;gt;&amp;lt;nowiki&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/nowiki&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt; tags.&lt;br /&gt;
Include the text/links you want to appear in the reference section between the tage.&amp;lt;br&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Clicking on the reference links in this example will take you to the examples in the next row.&lt;br /&gt;
| This article.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Example 1&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
That article.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Example 2&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
| &amp;lt;pre&amp;gt;This article.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Example 1&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
That article.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Example 2&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/pre&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|If you need to use the same reference more than once, it will need to be named using &amp;lt;code&amp;gt;&amp;lt;nowiki&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref name=example&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/nowiki&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt; on the first time it is used, and &amp;lt;code&amp;gt;&amp;lt;nowiki&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref name=example/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/nowiki&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt; on subsequent references.&lt;br /&gt;
|First&amp;lt;ref name=ex3&amp;gt;Example 3&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Second&amp;lt;ref name=ex3/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
|&amp;lt;pre&amp;gt;First&amp;lt;ref name=ex3&amp;gt;Example 3&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Second&amp;lt;ref name=ex3/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/pre&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
|-&lt;br /&gt;
|Pages with references must contain a section for listing these including the &amp;lt;code&amp;gt;&amp;lt;nowiki&amp;gt;&amp;lt;references/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/nowiki&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt; tag.&lt;br /&gt;
This automatically lists all references on the page.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Clicking on the arrows takes you back to the place where the reference was made. When multiple references are made to the same source, links to each are given by number.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
== Tips for Transcription ==&lt;br /&gt;
You should use whatever method of transcription you find suits you best. So far, we don&#039;t know of any speech recognition software available to do the task for us, so the following is for manual transcription only. Here&#039;s some quick info on what we&#039;ve found useful so far. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Please let us know if you have any suggestions to add.&lt;br /&gt;
=== Audio software ===&lt;br /&gt;
[http://www.nch.com.au/scribe/index.html ExpressScribe] is a free program that allows you a lot of control over the audio playback, whilst using the text editor of your choice. You can assign hot-keys to actions such as play, pause, speed up, skip back etc. that are system-wide (i.e. they work no matter what other program you&#039;re in at the time). You can also use this program with a foot pedal.  You can find an overview of ExpressScribe functions in [http://www.makeuseof.com/tag/transcribe-audio-video-files-text-express-scribe/ this article]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[http://www.videolan.org/index.html VLC media player] can be also used, by using the playback speed function.  Dialling down the speed until you can type comfortably in your favourite text editor, a quick alt-tab to switch to vlc, then shift-left a couple of times will skip back a few seconds if you missed something.  Alt-left and alt-right skips larger chunks of time.  With a little practice these commands become second nature.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Text editing software ===&lt;br /&gt;
Ultimately, it doesn&#039;t matter what program you use for writing your transcription, but most have their advantages and disadvantages. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Here are some things you might want to consider:&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;Spell-checking&#039;&#039;&#039; &amp;amp;ndash; the editing box on this site underlines unrecognized and/or misspelled words with a dotted red line, but is relatively limited.&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;Automatic correction&#039;&#039;&#039; &amp;amp;ndash; some text editors (e.g. MS Word) automatically correct common typos, e.g. &#039;taht&#039;, &#039;beleive&#039; and &#039;sicence&#039;. This can be very handy, however, it can sometimes cause problems if a false correction is made and not noticed.&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;Grammar checking&#039;&#039;&#039; &amp;amp;ndash; not for the podcast content itself, but for errors such as lower case letters after full-stops and two spaces in a row etc.&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;&#039;Formatting&#039;&#039;&#039; &amp;amp;ndash; e.g. only &#039;straight&#039; (or &#039;typewriter&#039;) apostrophes are recognised in wiki-markup for bold and italics etc., &#039;curly&#039; (or typographic) apostrophes, as often used in MS Word, are not. &lt;br /&gt;
**To change this in MS Word 2010, go to &#039;&#039;File&#039;&#039;&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;Options&#039;&#039;&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;Proofing&#039;&#039; and click &#039;&#039;AutoCorrect Options&#039;&#039;. In the pop-up window, deselect the checkbox for replacing &#039;&#039;&amp;quot;Straight quotes&amp;quot; with &amp;quot;smart quotes&amp;quot;&#039;&#039;, in both the &#039;&#039;AutoFormat&#039;&#039; and &#039;&#039;AutoFormat As You Type&#039;&#039; tabs.&lt;br /&gt;
**To change this in older versions of MS Word, go to &#039;&#039;Tools&#039;&#039;&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;AutoCorrect Options&#039;&#039;&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;AutoFormat As You Type&#039;&#039; and deselect the checkbox for replacing &#039;&#039;&amp;quot;Straight quotes&amp;quot; with &amp;quot;smart quotes&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!--???Microsoft Word&lt;br /&gt;
Advantages: Spell-checker; Corrects common typos automatically, highlights double-spaces&lt;br /&gt;
Disadvantages: sometimes auto-corrects when you don&#039;t want it to; uses ???apostrophes that aren&#039;t recognized for formatting in Wiki (see ???)--&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Community Portal ==&lt;br /&gt;
The [[SGUTranscripts:Community portal|Community portal]] is a page where you can post messages about the website. This is the place to ask for help, make suggestions etc.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You can post a message here by editing and saving the page like any other, entering new topics at the top, and adding to threads within them at the bottom of the thread. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If you are replying to a post, or adding a new post within a current topic, click on the &amp;quot;edie&amp;quot; link to the righ of that topic&#039;s header. This means that it will be clear what your comment is about when others see it on the [[Special:RecentChanges|Recent changes page]], or the [http://www.sgutranscripts.org/w/index.php?title=SGUTranscripts:Community_portal&amp;amp;action=history Community Portal history page]. If you are replying to a post, you should indent your text by including one or more colons, &amp;quot;:&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Automatically insert your user name and the time of the post by using 4 tildes &amp;lt;nowiki&amp;gt;&amp;quot;~~~~&amp;quot;&amp;lt;/nowiki&amp;gt;, or by clicking the signature button at the top of your editing box.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&amp;lt;noinclude&amp;gt;This template is used to display the list of full-length episodes on the [[Main Page]] and the [[SGU Episodes]] page. Additions and amendments to this template will be reflected on those pages.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Where the first pass of transcription is done using Google Speech API, the page should be followed by &amp;lt;code&amp;gt;&amp;lt;nowiki&amp;gt;{{a}}&amp;lt;/nowiki&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt; to add the microphone icon.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Pages currently in progress should be followed by &amp;lt;code&amp;gt;&amp;lt;nowiki&amp;gt;{{i}}&amp;lt;/nowiki&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt; to add the pencil icon, and pages that have sections open to other contributors to transcribe should be followed by &amp;lt;code&amp;gt;&amp;lt;nowiki&amp;gt;{{Open}}&amp;lt;/nowiki&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt; to include the green arrow icon. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Once all the transcription is finished, the page should be marked with &amp;lt;code&amp;gt;&amp;lt;nowiki&amp;gt;{{mag}}&amp;lt;/nowiki&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt; to add the magnifying glass icon, signifying that it needs to be proof-read.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Pages that have been proof-read and verified by a contributor other than the author should be followed by &amp;lt;code&amp;gt;&amp;lt;nowiki&amp;gt;{{tick}}&amp;lt;/nowiki&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt; to include the green tick icon.&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/noinclude&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

* Talc and Cancer&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;blockquote&amp;gt;I came across this story this evening while reading CBC: http://www.cbc.ca/beta/news/business/talcum-powder-cancer-johnson-johnson-1.3563809 A discussion on this might be interesting on multiple levels. If there is a scientifically supported link between this product and cancer, then the lawsuit is, arguably, justifiable. If there is not, then this is pandering to the natural fallacy in that the jurors are responding to &#039;big company give innocent people cancer [you have to read that in stereotypical &#039;caveman&#039; voice for full effect]. However, of the talcum powder *does* have a proven link to cancer….wait, how could it?!?! It&#039;s natural, isn&#039;t it? The natural fallacy gets turned on its head. I am not saying I know either way – I&#039;m just reading a lot of reports that say talcum powder gives cancer 1200 more lawsuits pending&#039;. (I&#039;m also a seasoned half -marathon runner, in the tropics, and talcum powder is a necessary go-to for … chaffing … would love to hear a deep dive into the science behind the claims). Cheers, Trevor Taiwan/Canada Ps – in regards to your last episode about the rather upsetting case of the boy that died of meningitis, I assure you the &#039;state&#039; has no power whatsoever. The &#039;province&#039;, however…. ;-)&amp;lt;/blockquote&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;blockquote&amp;gt;To Steve, After I went into your &#039;contacts&#039; info on your &#039;science based medicine&#039;? website, I see that you have Dr Gorski, who is one of the most biased individual doctors. Interestingly enough also, is how it states that Dr Gorski will ignore any emails he receives. 100 yrs ago, and for all of time/history before, nature was the only way to heal from diseases of any kind. Cancer is no exception. To limit ourselves with limiting beliefs that man made drugs are the only answer to good health, is not only foolish, it is just plain brain washed stupidity. It has become very clear to me that anyone who knocks nature, knocks their very roots of where they came from. Anyone who knocks something when they have not tried it is not to be believed. Thousands of people around the globe, are being cured of cancer now everyday with these very same methods that the truthaboutcancer is sharing. If THAT is not science enough for you, than what difference does it make what you find in your test tube in a lab? So, Steve, you are either also brain washed, or you are one who has their hands in the pockets of Americans trading health for profits, along with your other pals. I don&#039;t expect I will hear reply from you, cause I don&#039;t think you have the guts. Organic food market is one of THE top sellers on the current stock market. This is no coincidence....it is because simply stated...it works. People will continue to DO what works, and brain washed individuals like yourself, will lose momentum, because real life results will disprove anything you propose to argue here about science. You are NOT the authority on science.....real lives and people are. Hope you can live with your conscience, as you are the only one who will have to answer to that in years to come. - DD&amp;lt;/blockquote&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

* Item #2: The deadliest hurricane in the US was the 1900 Galviston hurricane which killed 8-12,000 people, while the deadliest hurricane in the world was in 1970 in Bangladesh which killed an estimated 500,000 people. https://weather.com/tv/shows/hurricane-week/news/most-devastating-hurricanes-20130713#/1 https://www.wunderground.com/hurricane/deadlyworld.asp&lt;br /&gt;

* Item #4: In 2015 Hurricane Patricia became the strongest hurricane on record, with maximum sustained winds of 215 mph (345 km/h), although it caused almost no deaths. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hurricane_Patricia&lt;br /&gt;

=== Question 1: Fishmato &amp;lt;small&amp;gt;()&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;===&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;blockquote&amp;gt;Dear Sir: Since listening to your Podcasts I have changed my position on GMO’s. I was strongly against GMO’s until I learned that some anti-GMO groups were using the same tactics as the Climate Change Deniers, i.e. cherry picking data, putting words in scientist’s mouths that they never said and twisting the facts. That led me to doing some of my own research on the internet. I still do have some concerns about the chemicals used in conjunction with GMO’s, not just their effect on humans, but the effect on wildlife particularly if the chemicals get into rivers. Yet, I fully appreciate the need for GMO’s to help feed the world as the population grows to 9.5 billion by 2050 and increasing areas become difficult to grow crops due to climate change. However how do you explain this incident – the doctors appear to have very cautious and used proper procedures to come to their conclusion … http://worldnewsdailyreport.com/doctors-confirm-first-human-death-officially-caused-by-gmos/?utm_campaign=shareaholic&amp;amp;utm_medium=facebook&amp;amp;utm_source=socialnetwork The topic continues to be driven mostly by emotion rather than science. A few factors keep that emotion high • Prominent, high profile individuals coming out against GMO’s such as David Suzuki (more on him in a minute) and Dr. Jane Goodall • As many as 30 countries banning GMO’s and 64 requiring them to be labelled • Most studies are being funded by corporations such as Monsanto so there are concerns of biased results • Reports of scientists that publish reports about certain GMO’s causing health problems, suffering the same harassment as the climate scientists I believe it was on one of your podcasts that a commentator dissed on David Suzuki even though that commentator knew absolutely nothing about him. It just happens that he is one of the most respected individuals in this country of Canada! He is an award winning scientist, environmentalist and broadcaster. He has a B.A. and PhD in genetics, was a professor of genetics at the University of British Columbia for 4 years, before becoming an Associate in the University of British Columbia&#039;s Sustainable Development Research Institute. He has been the television host of the CBC’s highly acclaimed “The Nature of Things” since 1979. The comments made on that podcast were totally uncalled for and unprofessional. That said I thoroughly enjoy your informative, lively Podcasts and look forward to new ones every week. Bob Loveless Vancouver, B.C.&amp;lt;/blockquote&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

* Item #1: New research finds that bedbugs have evolved a thicker cuticle, or exoskeleton, which allows them to survive temperatures up to 210 F (99 C). http://www.bbc.com/news/science-environment-36037823&lt;br /&gt;
* Item #2: Programmers have created an algorithm that can uniquely identify a user from anonymized data if they have made a single geotagged post on two apps. http://www.sciencenewsline.com/news/2016041318410017.html&lt;br /&gt;
* Item #3: Scientists discover that bearcats smell like buttered popcorn because they excrete the identical molecule creating that odor in their urine. http://www.upi.com/Science_News/2016/04/13/Study-explains-why-bearcats-smell-like-movie-theather-popcorn/8641460568145/&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&amp;lt;noinclude&amp;gt;This template is used to display the list of full-length episodes on the [[Main Page]] and the [[SGU Episodes]] page. Additions and amendments to this template will be reflected on those pages.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Where the first pass of transcription is done using Google Speech API, the page should be followed by &amp;lt;code&amp;gt;&amp;lt;nowiki&amp;gt;{{a}}&amp;lt;/nowiki&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt; to add the microphone icon.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Pages currently in progress should be followed by &amp;lt;code&amp;gt;&amp;lt;nowiki&amp;gt;{{i}}&amp;lt;/nowiki&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt; to add the pencil icon, and pages that have sections open to other contributors to transcribe should be followed by &amp;lt;code&amp;gt;&amp;lt;nowiki&amp;gt;{{Open}}&amp;lt;/nowiki&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt; to include the green arrow icon. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Once all the transcription is finished, the page should be marked with &amp;lt;code&amp;gt;&amp;lt;nowiki&amp;gt;{{mag}}&amp;lt;/nowiki&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt; to add the magnifying glass icon, signifying that it needs to be proof-read.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Pages that have been proof-read and verified by a contributor other than the author should be followed by &amp;lt;code&amp;gt;&amp;lt;nowiki&amp;gt;{{tick}}&amp;lt;/nowiki&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt; to include the green tick icon.&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/noinclude&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;div&gt;== Remove Humor tag from the episodes? ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Every episode contains some humour, so actually, all episodes should be listed. As it stands, nine epiodes are listed. Looks like only those are funny, and the rest are boooooring. &amp;amp;#x1f609; Is it ok if I remove the humor tag from these episodes? [[User:Sunny256|Sunny256]] ([[User talk:Sunny256|talk]]) 2016-07-28 04:14+0200&lt;br /&gt;
:Sunny- I didn&#039;t come up with the original tag list, so I don&#039;t really know what the intent was with &amp;quot;Humor&amp;quot;. I think it was to highlight those segment specifically played up for laughs, like Perry&#039;s &amp;quot;I have monkeys in my pants&amp;quot; bit. The category tag gets applied to the redirect page for individual segments and thus to the whole episode page. There are a lot of episodes that are missing categories, but there are also many that didn&#039;t have a &amp;quot;just for kicks&amp;quot; news story. Does this make sense? --[[User:Av8rmike|Av8rmike]] ([[User talk:Av8rmike|talk]]) 22:45, 30 July 2016 (AEST)&lt;/div&gt;</summary>

== Questions and Emails &amp;lt;small&amp;gt;()&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt; ==&lt;br /&gt;
Question #1: Fake Skeptic Scam	I was wondering if the skeptical community has noticed that some Scammers, psychics and similar frauds are making up fake websites where their claims are &#039;skeptically&#039; questioned, but found to be completely true! I found this one when researching the Medical Medium (Anthony William): http://medical-medium-scam.com/2015/09/20/is-anthony-william-just-a-scammer-medical-psychic/ It&#039;s even named Scam, in a way that people might think it is legitimate, but it is just packed with 5 or so articles where a (possibly fake) skeptic says they investigated the Medical Medium, but found all his claims to be true. Seems like there is another front of misinformation to manage, especially as I often recommend to people to search for any miracle cure, but then add &#039;Scam&#039; or &#039;fake&#039; to it, to get the other side of the story.

&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&amp;lt;noinclude&amp;gt;This template is used to display the list of full-length episodes on the [[Main Page]] and the [[SGU Episodes]] page. Additions and amendments to this template will be reflected on those pages.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Where the first pass of transcription is done using Google Speech API, the page should be followed by &amp;lt;code&amp;gt;&amp;lt;nowiki&amp;gt;{{a}}&amp;lt;/nowiki&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt; to add the microphone icon.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Pages currently in progress should be followed by &amp;lt;code&amp;gt;&amp;lt;nowiki&amp;gt;{{i}}&amp;lt;/nowiki&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt; to add the pencil icon, and pages that have sections open to other contributors to transcribe should be followed by &amp;lt;code&amp;gt;&amp;lt;nowiki&amp;gt;{{Open}}&amp;lt;/nowiki&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt; to include the green arrow icon. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Once all the transcription is finished, the page should be marked with &amp;lt;code&amp;gt;&amp;lt;nowiki&amp;gt;{{mag}}&amp;lt;/nowiki&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt; to add the magnifying glass icon, signifying that it needs to be proof-read.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Pages that have been proof-read and verified by a contributor other than the author should be followed by &amp;lt;code&amp;gt;&amp;lt;nowiki&amp;gt;{{tick}}&amp;lt;/nowiki&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt; to include the green tick icon.&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/noinclude&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Below are links to all the SGU episodes with transcription pages. &lt;br /&gt;

* This Week&#039;s Topic - Randi&#039;s best mentalist trick (or at least a very good one).&lt;br /&gt;
S: Randi, can you give us an example of one of your more successful mentalism tricks?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
JR: When I was about 17 years of age and starting into my mentalism career in Toronto, Canada&amp;amp;mdash;now mind you, I was still going to school, so I did this only in my spare time. I recall one episode when I was quite thrilled to be able to perform at the Royal Alexandra Theatre. Now that was a very&amp;amp;mdash;and still is a very classy location on King Street West in Toronto, Canada; the only time that I ever stepped into the Royal Alexandra Theatre and actually got to walk on the stage. I was hired as a mentalist and tickets had been sold for this event quite some time in advance. What I&#039;ll do is I&#039;ll tell you the effect of what I did when I walked out on stage and then we&#039;ll go back in time a little bit and see how I was able to do this.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I waled out on stage, introduced myself as a mentalist and said that I was able to pick up thoughts from people in the audience and I was a total stranger to everyone in the audience, et cetera, et cetera; the usual thing. I did a couple of opening bits that got a moderate amount of applause; &#039;&#039;(indistinct)&#039;&#039; a bomb in their midst. I waved my hand over the audience and pointed at a lady sitting at the end of the third row, right on the aisle, and I said &amp;quot;excuse me, ma&#039;am.&amp;quot; I said &amp;quot;I get a strange impression from you,&amp;quot; and she held her hand to her chest to say &amp;quot;moi?&amp;quot; and I said &amp;quot;yes, you. Would you stand up?&amp;quot; and she stood up and I said &amp;quot;have I ever met you before?&amp;quot;&amp;amp;mdash;the usual thing. And she said &amp;quot;no&amp;quot;; I said &amp;quot;I get a strange impression. I get a strange impression; I cast my mind back to your home and I get a very nice place with a few hills around it&amp;quot; and I named the district in Toronto and she was appropriately impressed because that&#039;s where she did live; it was a nice, expensive residential area. And I said, &amp;quot;I have a peculiar impression and I&#039;m going to ask you to explain this to us if it&#039;s correct. I&#039;m getting crossed hands like an X.&amp;quot; I said &amp;quot;they&#039;re like arrows and they&#039;re crossed one over the other.&amp;quot; And she looked puzzled and I said &amp;quot;it seems to be something that you own and I believe you owned it for many years; it&#039;s a... oh, goodness... it&#039;s made of porcelain; part of it is made of porcelain and glass&amp;amp;mdash;oh, it&#039;s a clock. It&#039;s a clock.&amp;quot; And her hand flew to her mouth; she was obviously quite astonished and I knew I&#039;d made a big hit. And she started to explain; I said &amp;quot;no, no, no; let me tell you. The crossed hands on the clock&amp;amp;mdash; now, the hands on a clock don&#039;t cross but on this particular one they seem to,&amp;quot; and she tried to blurt something out and I said &amp;quot;no, no, no; let me tell you, please. And I&#039;m getting roses; I don&#039;t know whether the roses are sitting beside the clock,&amp;quot; and now she was distraught. She was just having a fit. She was having an attack of the vapors, as we used to say, as she recognized what I was apparently seeing in my mind. And I said, &amp;quot;there&#039;s something wrong with that clock; in fact, the clock is not working. Am I correct?&amp;quot; She said, &amp;quot;yes, yes&amp;quot; and I said, &amp;quot;the hands. Ah! The hands have fallen off the clock and they are crossed&amp;quot; and I made a sign with my crossed fingers in front of my body. And she sat down very suddenly and she started to fan at herself and I said, &amp;quot;are you OK?&amp;quot; and she said, &amp;quot;oh, yes, but how did you know this? You see the clock&amp;amp;mdash;&amp;quot; and I said &amp;quot;wait, wait, wait; let me finish.&amp;quot; I said, &amp;quot;and the roses. Would the roses be part of the clock or marked on the clock in some way?&amp;quot; She says, &amp;quot;oh yes, on the porcelain dial; it had little pink roses. That&#039;s part of the design on the dial.&amp;quot; And the audience was now stilled. And then I went on and I said, &amp;quot;and you haven&#039;t gotten around to fix it yet because you&#039;re waiting for someone to fix it but you can&#039;t tell ... a clock with no hands if they&#039;re laying at the bottom of the dial behind the glass.&amp;quot; And now she was having a total fit. And I said, &amp;quot;well, I&#039;ll leave it at that because I see you&#039;re rather distressed by this,&amp;quot; and she said, &amp;quot;oh yes, oh my.&amp;quot; Well, I got huge applause on that. That... it tore the house down. Everything I did from then on was an anti-climax. My good friend Terrence K. Lawson was backstage and he was cheering me on.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Now let me tell you first of all how that was done. Terrence Lawson had a {{w|Studebaker}}. Now, a Studebaker in those days was a car you couldn&#039;t tell whether it was coming or going, the way it was built. And that was what everybody laughed at, and he was the only one in all of the people&amp;amp;mdash;the young people that I knew of our age who actually had a car. It was a family car and he tooled around in that car. So he was mobile, and I certainly wasn&#039;t, except for my bicycle. I set him in the lobby of the Royal Alexandra Theatre when they put the tickets on sale for this big extravaganza they were having that was featuring &#039;&#039;moi&#039;&#039;. And I thought maybe I could get some information this way. And sure enough, Lawson was standing by with the sunglasses on, looking nonchalant. &#039;&#039;(whistles)&#039;&#039; This kind of thing. When an old lady stepped up to the buffer; she said she wanted tickets and she named the show and she said she like something on the aisle so that she could have easy access to the aisle. And the gentleman named the numbers of the tickets and gave them to her. And... &#039;&#039;(chuckles)&#039;&#039; it was just wonderful. She then gave the&amp;amp;mdash;she had to charge them in some way and I&#039;ve forgotten how it was done in those days, but she had to give her name and her address, and of course Lawson stood there and secretly made note of that, and when she went outside and she got into a taxi, he jumped in the Studebaker and followed the taxi all the way&amp;amp;mdash;and I&#039;ve forgotten the name of the district in Toronto; the district that she lived in. Not long after that, he came by with a briefcase and knocked on the door. He called her by name; she said &amp;quot;yes?&amp;quot; He said, &amp;quot;I&#039;m from the University of Toronto&amp;quot;, which was true. &amp;quot;I&#039;m doing a survey,&amp;quot; he said. &amp;quot;I&#039;m not going to sell you anything; I just need to ask you ten simple questions about your insurance needs,&amp;quot; and she said &amp;quot;oh, yes, come in.&amp;quot; And she invited him in, luckily, and wanted to offer him tea and cookies and the whole thing and he accepted graciously and he noticed a clock sitting on the mantelpiece. And it had roses on the dial and the hands had fallen off the face of the clock and they&#039;re crossed at the bottom of the dial. Well, that&#039;s how the information was obtained, you see.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And he did the survey, and he didn&#039;t call any attention to the fact that he&#039;d noticed the clock and then he left and went on his way. And he transferred this information to me. Now, I knew where those seats were in the theatre, of course. From the back of the stage he signaled to me &amp;quot;yes, that&#039;s the woman in the chair that had bought the tickets&amp;quot;. I was able to pull off this wonder of mentalism by that means. But I must add that seeing how disturbed she was at this great revelation that I could not possibly have obtained by any other means but psychic means. I insisted to Lawson that we had to watch for her at the door and grab her, and indeed he went out side and he waited until she exited and he asked her if she&#039;d come around to the dressing room door at the back. And she did that and I [...] her inside and she said, &amp;quot;oh, you called upon me personally;&amp;quot; I said &amp;quot;yes, because I want you to understand what happened.&amp;quot; I said &amp;quot;we did a bit of spying; it was all a trick,&amp;quot; and I explained to her how it was done. And she laughed and she was so amused by that, she said &amp;quot;oh, that&#039;s wonder&amp;amp;mdash;how clever!&amp;quot; And she hugged me and she hugged Terry and she went on her way. Because I felt that it had been so important to her that she would be carrying this story of this wonderful mentalist who was able to spiritually or psychically or somehow develop this information about her. I wanted her to know how it was done because I felt guilty letting her walk away with this delusion.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
S: And imagine if you had less scrupulous motives, what you could achieve with such simple tricks.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
JR: Oh, the next move would have been, of course, to get her on my mailing list, and to solicit... now, she was living in a very, very expensive area of Toronto. That home had to be worth a lot of money, and she looked as if she was a single, elderly lady; probably a widow. We could have milked her for all kinds of money, and I&#039;m sure she would have given it up gladly, but that wasn&#039;t the nature of the beasts that we were.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
S: Randi, thank you.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
JR: Thank you.&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;blockquote&amp;gt;Hello there,&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I have been listening to the SGU for some time now but this is the first time I have written to you. I am sure that you have lots of people writing in with many different stories but I felt that regardless you guys should know about this. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Though I may sound like a naive Canadian I didn&#039;t expect a catholic school board in Ontario to consider banning the new HPV vaccine.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[http://www.cbc.ca/canada/toronto/story/2007/09/18/hpv-halton.html CBC: Catholic school board in Halton may ban HPV vaccination]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I was a student in this board between 1996-2001 and was shocked to find this news story.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
There has been much contention here in Ontario about funding faith based schools (other than catholic schools which is actually a stipulation of the British North America Act of 1867)&lt;br /&gt;
Brief outline at:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[http://www.cbc.ca/ontariovotes2007/features/features-faith.html CBC: Faith-based schools]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Having been a product of this specific school board (and an atheist) I understood that faith wasn&#039;t really pushed all that much in these schools, they still taught evolution and classes on other religions. But even suggesting banning this vaccine did it for me. I will be writing to my politicians and encouraging my friends to do the same to try and fix this and create one public education system.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Not sure if this interests you or not. I didn&#039;t really think that this stuff was happening here in Canada, though there was a Creation Museum opened in the province of Alberta recently... &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Regardless, I just wanted to let you know that I appreciate what you guys do. It is organizations like yours that inspire people to better themselves and to help those around them. Thank you and as usual I look forward to this week&#039;s podcast. &lt;br /&gt;

=== Autism Nonsense on Oprah &amp;lt;small&amp;gt;(32:36)&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt; ===&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;blockquote&amp;gt;Dear Dr. Novella,&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I am a long time fan of the show. The reason I am writing is this: I recently caught an episode of Oprah on which Jenny McCarthy was a guest. It turns out that she has a new book. Louder Than Words: A Mothers ourney in Healing Autism is the storey of her little boy Evan and the struggles she faced following his autism diagnosis. A large portion of the book (at least this is what I gathered from the interview) explains the &amp;quot;alternative approaches&amp;quot; she utilized in order to treat her sons condition. It was supremely entertaining to try to explain the logical fallacies she employed while discussing the efficacy of these &amp;quot;alternative approaches&amp;quot;. The highlight for me, aside from her constantly quoting her mommy instinct as her major source of evidence for anything and everything, was when she explained that the only reason that paediatricians aren&#039;t utilizing these &amp;quot;alternative approaches&amp;quot; is they are simply unaware of them. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Up until a certain point it was all fun and games. Innocent entertainment while Jenny and Oprah discussed alternative medicine while making references to The Secret. But then a line was crossed. Oprah asked Jenny what she felt was responsible for her sons condition and ...dum diddy dummm... of course she felt it was the MMR vaccination her son had received around his fist birthday. Her mommy sense told her that there was something wrong when he got vaccination. She tried to question the doctor before the shot but he&lt;br /&gt;
just berated her and gave her kid the needle anyway. Oprah and her then combined to provide some statistics on the matter: 1 in 150 have autism now while it used to only be one in hundreds of thousands. To her credit Oprah did read a quote from the Centre for Disease control but it was wishy washy and misleading. It implied that scientist don&#039;t know whether or not vaccines cause autism and did not mention that numerous studies have shown that vaccines do not cause autism.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I blew a fuse man. Flipped my coffee table upside down, threw the remote across the room and started yelling at the TV. Me and Oprah have never really seen eye to eye on anything but this one takes the cake. This lady has a responsibility. Too many stay at home moms and dads sit at home all day watching her program, blindly utilizing its content for lessons in spirituality, ethics, current events, fashion, household economics and unfortunately science. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The sad fact of the matter is that Oprah is more predominant and influential than scientific consensus. That hour of programming trumped years of clinical trials as far as the Autism-Vaccine debate is concerned. Oprah fuelled the fire in the hearts of moms around the world. And that is why I am calling my fellow Skeptics to action. Something needs to be done. I would say that ten thousand or so angry (yet accurate and enlightening) emails demanding a retraction ought to do the trick. So far she has at least one sitting her inbox. I turn to you noble gentlemen (and women) of the Skeptics&#039; Guide to the Galaxy for assistance. It is our duty. Oprah will fall. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

== Name That Logical Fallacy - Logical Fallacies &amp;lt;small&amp;gt;(46:59)&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt; ==&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;blockquote&amp;gt;In his book, &amp;quot;The Universe in a Nutshell&amp;quot; Stephen Hawking makes a fallacious argument against those who believe that UFO&#039;s are really time travelers from the future that the government is aware of but is covering up. He says this isn&#039;t very likely since the Government isn&#039;t very good at covering up conspiracies. The trouble is, we have no idea how good the government is at covering up conspiracies since we only know about the failures (i.e. there could be many thousands, although unlikely, that were successful in which case the ones we do know about would be relatively small). What fallacy has one of the brightest scientific minds committed here? You guys are awesome. All of your time, energy and hard work is greatly appreciated by this loyal listener. &lt;br /&gt;

== Randi Speaks &amp;lt;small&amp;gt;(51:13)&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt; ==&lt;br /&gt;
* The Uncompromising Observations of a Veteran Skeptic.  James Randi returns to give his skeptical commentary in his own unique style.  This week&#039;s topic: Barbara Walters&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
S: Randi, I remember you telling a story one time about an encounter you had with {{w|Barbara Walters}} regarding your friend and mine, {{w|Uri Geller}} &#039;&#039;(YOU-ree)&#039;&#039;. Can you tell us about that?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
JR: First of all, let&#039;s pronounce his name properly, Steve; it&#039;s &amp;quot;OO-ree&amp;quot; Geller. You can&#039;t blame the Russians for this; it&#039;s not Yuri. It&#039;s Uri. You&#039;ve got to be very careful about that because I think the Russians may resent that. &#039;&#039;(chuckles)&#039;&#039; Well, you know, I&#039;ve had many adventures with Barbara Walters over the years, many of them on &#039;&#039;The Today Show&#039;&#039;, some on a couple of the women&#039;s shows that she&#039;s done and most recently on &#039;&#039;{{w|The View (U.S. TV series)|The View}}&#039;&#039;. And we&#039;ve always gotten along so well together; Barbara always throws her arms out and rushes down the hall to embrace me. She&#039;s very effusive and... lovely; very affectionate lady and I&#039;m very fond of her. But a couple of things we just don&#039;t discuss in detail. I don&#039;t know that she ever really fell for the Uri Geller stunts. She was amazed by them; listen, the guy&#039;s a magician and if she&#039;d understand how it&#039;s done I guess you could be amazed by it. As with most celebrities, she finds it difficult to believe that she can&#039;t understand something and that if she doesn&#039;t understand it, it&#039;s probably supernatural or probably genuine. But she&#039;s very willing to be shown and that&#039;s always the good sign with a media figure, I think, or a celebrity of any kind. But she&amp;amp;mdash;when I replicated the sealed drawing thing, the thing in the envelope that he does; it&#039;s one of the three tricks that Geller does. He is a three-trick pony, you know. And that&#039;s what it is: major tricks. When I replicated that for her on the&amp;amp;mdash;&#039;&#039;Not For Women Only&#039;&#039;, I think was the name of the show... used to be called &#039;&#039;For Women Only&#039;&#039; and then they got politically correct and called it &#039;&#039;Not For Women Only&#039;&#039;. Duh! She was&amp;amp;mdash;really, she was flabbergasted because she&#039;d literally threw her pencil up in the air and just sunk in the chair, as if to say, &amp;quot;oh boy, I&#039;ve been taken again&amp;quot;. Now, I did that by an ad-lib method which was quite different from what Geller has always done. But nonetheless it works, &#039;&#039;(indistinct)&#039;&#039; you can imagine. And she, after the show, when I showed her how it was done, she was astonished that she had fallen for it, and I sort of was, too. But the audience apparently fell for it, too, because it fooled the audience, at home and in the studio. So I guess it wasn&#039;t all that bad.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
But I must say, Barbara is very practical and pragmatic. She recognized that she can be fooled, and that is such a healthy sign and so very rare among celebrities. And Barbara&#039;s been around long enough that she has enormous standing, of course; just enormous standing with her public and with her fans. And, I think, rightly so, because she&#039;s a very intelligent woman and she does very, very well for herself and she certainly represents the emergence of women as very&amp;amp;mdash;and this has only happened in the past 20 years&amp;amp;mdash;as very potent people in the news business and as leaders in TV and communication culture. So I like her a lot, and look forward to seeing her again, but I wouldn&#039;t say she fell for Geller; she was just cooed by the regular Geller tricks, but she was easily shown... what... she doesn&#039;t necessarily understand how tricks are done, and she shouldn&#039;t expect that she should understand how tricks are done. People are fooled by tricks when they&#039;re well done. I mean, you only do three tricks as Geller does, you get pretty good at doing them.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
S: Randi, after your demonstration to Barbara Walters, did she accept explicitly that Geller&#039;s performance could have been attributed to tricks or did she still hold out that he might have some real paranormal ability?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
JR: No, I think... I don&#039;t know that we... that I tried to extract an answer from her. As a matter of fact, a gentleman wouldn&#039;t do that in that case. Just let her think about it. But I think if you were to ask Barbara now, she&#039;d say that she recognized that certainly she could&#039;ve been fooled and that was probably the way that Geller did what he did.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
S: Randi, thank you very much.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;div&gt;&amp;lt;noinclude&amp;gt;This template is used to display the list of full-length episodes on the [[Main Page]] and the [[SGU Episodes]] page. Additions and amendments to this template will be reflected on those pages.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Where the first pass of transcription is done using Google Speech API, the page should be followed by &amp;lt;code&amp;gt;&amp;lt;nowiki&amp;gt;{{a}}&amp;lt;/nowiki&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt; to add the microphone icon.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Pages currently in progress should be followed by &amp;lt;code&amp;gt;&amp;lt;nowiki&amp;gt;{{i}}&amp;lt;/nowiki&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt; to add the pencil icon, and pages that have sections open to other contributors to transcribe should be followed by &amp;lt;code&amp;gt;&amp;lt;nowiki&amp;gt;{{Open}}&amp;lt;/nowiki&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt; to include the green arrow icon. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Once all the transcription is finished, the page should be marked with &amp;lt;code&amp;gt;&amp;lt;nowiki&amp;gt;{{mag}}&amp;lt;/nowiki&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt; to add the magnifying glass icon, signifying that it needs to be proof-read.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Pages that have been proof-read and verified by a contributor other than the author should be followed by &amp;lt;code&amp;gt;&amp;lt;nowiki&amp;gt;{{tick}}&amp;lt;/nowiki&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt; to include the green tick icon.&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/noinclude&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;div&gt;&amp;lt;noinclude&amp;gt;This template is used to display the list of full-length episodes on the [[Main Page]] and the [[SGU Episodes]] page. Additions and amendments to this template will be reflected on those pages.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Where the first pass of transcription is done using Google Speech API, the page should be followed by &amp;lt;code&amp;gt;&amp;lt;nowiki&amp;gt;{{a}}&amp;lt;/nowiki&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt; to add the microphone icon.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Pages currently in progress should be followed by &amp;lt;code&amp;gt;&amp;lt;nowiki&amp;gt;{{i}}&amp;lt;/nowiki&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt; to add the pencil icon, and pages that have sections open to other contributors to transcribe should be followed by &amp;lt;code&amp;gt;&amp;lt;nowiki&amp;gt;{{Open}}&amp;lt;/nowiki&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt; to include the green arrow icon. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Once all the transcription is finished, the page should be marked with &amp;lt;code&amp;gt;&amp;lt;nowiki&amp;gt;{{mag}}&amp;lt;/nowiki&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt; to add the magnifying glass icon, signifying that it needs to be proof-read.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Pages that have been proof-read and verified by a contributor other than the author should be followed by &amp;lt;code&amp;gt;&amp;lt;nowiki&amp;gt;{{tick}}&amp;lt;/nowiki&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt; to include the green tick icon.&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/noinclude&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Below are links to all the SGU episodes with transcription pages. &lt;br /&gt;

What was discovered is that the Billy Meier story actually represents the biggest UFO hoax in history. Upon close examination it was discovered that not one of his alleged photographs were original prints, but all had been airbrushed or otherwise altered.&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;Models of some of the spacecraft seen in his photo&#039;s were found in his house. In one video of an alleged flying saucer, the spacecraft can clearly be seen to be swinging pendulum style as if it were suspended by a wire. The photograph of an alleged Pleiadian alien was discovered to be a photocopy of a model taken from a Sears Catalog. Under close scrutiny, all of Billy Meier&#039;s alleged evidence has been shown to be false.&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;Yet, Billy Meier&#039;s claims survived for many years within the UFO community, being touted as the best evidence for the reality of alien visitation. There are still those who will not admit the entire case is a complete fraud. Meanwhile, Meier has made a great deal of money from the sale of his book and other material in which he discusses his hoaxed contact with aliens.&#039;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;Sincerely,&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;Michael Horn&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;Authorized American Media Representative&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;The Billy Meier Contacts&amp;lt;/blockquote&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

* The Uncompromising Observations of a Veteran Skeptic&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;James Randi returns to give his skeptical commentary in his own unique style.&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;This week&#039;s topic: Mentalism&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
S: Randi, I have noticed that some mentalists, magicians whose act includes mind reading and other similar tricks, either pretend or let their audience believe that they have real psychic abilities, while others are more up-front about the fact that they&#039;re doing standard illusionist tricks. Can you share with us your thoughts on this matter?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
JR: Back in the &#039;30s, there was a gentleman named {{w|Theodore Annemann|Ted Annemann}} who was very, very famous in mentalism circles and in magic circles, for that matter, who wrote a distributed magazine... distributed by mail that was specifically for the magicians and for the mentalists; it was called &amp;quot;The Jinx&amp;quot;. Annemann did bullet catches, very, very dramatically, shedding blood and all kinds of good things in order to make it convincing. And he did a lot of mentalism stunts, some of which {{w|Uri Geller|Geller}} is using today in his stage show with... moderate success, I guess. Annemann found himself in this peculiar position where he couldn&#039;t deny that he had mental powers, but he was still allowing people to believe he had mental powers. {{w|Joseph Dunninger}} later on had the same phenomenon occur to him; he would always wink at the magicians and smile and say, &amp;quot;I never bribed anybody,&amp;quot; which wasn&#039;t one of the methods that mentalists would use in any case. But he sort of left it at that. And he used all the standard methods that mentalists have always used, though some of them were very wisely and perfectly adapted to his particular format. I think that he gave generally the idea that he was in possession of psychic powers, though he never actually stated it; he never said it that way. It was just sort of a wink and a nod with him. He allowed people to believe what they wanted to believe, I guess. Now, that has limited value in this field, I think, but nonetheless, that&#039;s what Joe Dunninger chose and he was a good buddy of mine and certainly a &#039;&#039;magnificent&#039;&#039; performer. I don&#039;t think anyone has equaled him, with the possible exception of a gentleman now named {{w|Derren Brown}}. Now, Derren Brown has found himself, I think, in a bit of a quandary because, by saying that he uses psychological means and reading people&#039;s faces and reactions and such to accomplish some of his stunts, and they are all &#039;&#039;excellent&#039;&#039;. Unqualified excellent; I can&#039;t describe them any other way, because he builds a great scenario around each and every one of his demonstrations. And he&#039;s widely known in the U.K. and he&#039;s going to be showing over here as well, so we can look forward to that. But Derren Brown is sort of on the horns of this dilemma, as many of them have found themselves, where he can&#039;t really support this business that he uses psychological observations and body motions and expressions and such. But he absolutely does not; he uses standard techniques of the mentalists.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Now mentalists don&#039;t take chances. You can&#039;t very well go out on a limb on a major television program, especially if it&#039;s live, and absolutely flounder and fail just because you were depending upon reading some subtle cues. Now a lot of subtle cues &#039;&#039;are&#039;&#039; read by the mentalist; they have to be aware of what people will do under given circumstances; they have to know what to expect. They have to know how to analyze reactions and movements and various bodily gimmicks that people use. So, that is&amp;amp;mdash;it&#039;s true to a certain extent, but at the bottom of it, it&#039;s got to be something where they will definitely know the results one way or the other, and be absolutely certain of them, or they can&#039;t take a chance. Now when you&#039;re doing personal readings, doing cold readings or something like that, yes, you can do that. You can certainly flounder around because the victims are going to accept, no matter how badly you fail. Sylvia Browne is a master at this, even on live television she&#039;ll fail &#039;&#039;utterly&#039;&#039; and then of course {{w|Montel Williams}} or somebody else will make some sort of excuse for her and try to solve the problem that way and usually it&#039;s effective because the people are believers anyway and they just dote on Sylvia&#039;s declarations. So it&#039;s a different matter with the professionals; it&#039;s a different matter with magicians who do a little bit of mentalism; they never want to take themselves too seriously, but the people who do mentalism as such; {{w|Banacek}}, for example, a leading exponent of this art&amp;amp;mdash;internationally, I must say&amp;amp;mdash;Banacek never makes any bones about it at all. He says that he&#039;s doing tricks, that this is something that anybody could do if they would just spend the time to learn to do it. He doesn&#039;t say that it&#039;s paranormal; he doesn&#039;t even &#039;&#039;hint&#039;&#039; that it might be paranormal and he denies any such accusation. So he&#039;s certainly one of the good guys, and partially as a result, I think, of my influence on him, and I don&#039;t think that I had to prod him at all. He&#039;s basically an honest guy.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So we have a wide range of problems here and a wide range of performers, some of whom &#039;&#039;allow&#039;&#039; people to think that they might have psychic powers; others that definitely try to get people to believe that they are psychic, and others who, like Banacek, as they disavow any ability in that direction. Though his performance is stunning; if you&#039;ve seen it, I needn&#039;t tell you any more. If you haven&#039;t seen it, go and take a look.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
S: So would you say to summarize, that in the age of TV psychics, mentalists have more of an ethical or moral responsibility to be up front about their abilities?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
JR: I think they do, but I don&#039;t know that they actually do. The {{w|Society of American Magicians}} used to have an occult investigations committee under {{w|Harry Houdini}}. The Society of American Magicians have discontinued that occult committee some time ago and I&#039;ve never been able to find out from them why. Because they could be a good voice for reason in this sort of thing, but there are members there who come down on me heavily because they think I&#039;m fighting the mentalism business. I am not! I&#039;m fighting deception, lying, and cheating, and I don&#039;t think that any of us should be involved in that sort of thing. No, we don&#039;t cut the girl in two pieces with a buzzsaw. No, we don&#039;t predict the outcome of a World Series accurately in a sealed envelope in a safe on top of the Empire State Building or whatever. No, we don&#039;t do those things. We appear to, and that&#039;s what the art of illusion is all about.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
S: Randi, thank you.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
JR: My pleasure.&lt;br /&gt;

The first book was a bible, and the second book was a guide book.&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;Can you tell me the title of the 3rd book?&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;Winner: Peacock&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;Answer:&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/blockquote&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;blockquote&amp;gt;I&#039;m sure you&#039;d be pleased that I often question what I hear, even on SGU but I&#039;m half way through Episode 111 and I had to respond to your (Steve&#039;s) aside about &#039;peanut and other nut allergies&#039;. Peanuts are not nuts! (Are peanuts nuts?&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;Although many people consider peanuts a nut, they are really a legume of the plant Arachis hypogaea. Other legumes include foods such as beans, peas and soybeans. Source= http://www.peanutsusa.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=home.page&amp;amp;pid=32).&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;Peanut allergic people can eat real nuts with impunity. As a haematologist I&#039;m about as qualified as a neurologist to talk about this except that one of my haematological colleagues tried to die of an anaphylactic reaction during a meeting we were at as one of the sandwiches from which he took a bight had a trace of satay sauce. After resuscitation, he was OK and has demonstrated that he can eat cashews and walnuts without a problem. He now has an epipen for unexpected encounters with peanuts (not nuts).&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;Jeff Szer&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;Australia&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/blockquote&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;blockquote&amp;gt;Hello Steve,&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;Just listened to the September 5, 2007 pod cast. Who is the &#039;African American Community&#039; concerning the King Tut &#039;controversy? Again is this Jesse Jackson or Al Sharpton? By African American Community was this from a poll with a reasonable sample and error margin of Blacks? You mentioned that &#039;there are those who think....&#039; Again - Who are these people? You seem to state that some loony white people believe some idiotic belief and limit it to this. You should also point the source out concerning what is the African American Community and what this represents.&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;Much to often I have seen racist posting items as if they were from the African American Community which in my opinion (as a black man, I have been to Africa and I am not African anything) to cause confusion and doubt. In addition the media seems to have anointed people like Jesse Jackson or Al Sharpton as Black leaders and again I do not recall the election when I voted these people as my leaders.&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;So - Please state the source your stories. African American Community is a little vague - right?&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;Sorry for the rant but I am not from the inner city and I am Black. Period. And I think science is the way.&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;Thanks - Allen&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;www.stevemartin.com/world_of_steve/television/kingtut.php&amp;lt;/blockquote&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;blockquote&amp;gt;I ran across this interesting article from the UK, where it&#039;s suggested that walking to the store is worse for the environment than driving;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/uk/science/article2195538.ece&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;Jaan&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;Rebecca&#039;s Blog on the topic&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;skepchick.org/skepticsguide/viewtopic.php?t=4238&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/blockquote&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== AI Sense of Humor &amp;lt;small&amp;gt;(44:29)&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt; ===&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;blockquote&amp;gt;As always thanks for providing an excellent podcast to start my week off just right. However last week I did find one thing to gripe about a bit. One of my favorite segments is the science or fiction portion and while I am definately not always right I generally understand the correct answer. However last week even after learning the true stories I did not feel that the AI with a sense of humor should be classified as science. To me &#039;sense of humor&#039; describes something more than just the way something is delivered. If I am understanding correctly this program detects variations in the voice that are commonly associated with telling a joke, much the same way a lie-detector tries to determine truth through bio patterns. Perhaps a &#039;joke-detecting&#039; AI was made, but just as sweaty palms don&#039;t constitute a lie, the right inflections in the voice don&#039;t always make humor.&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;Unfortunately I think we still only have &#039;Data&#039;; able to understand that a joke has been told, yet unable to find the humor in it. Hence, in my view, Data had no sense of humor.&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;Maybe I&#039;m way off base here, but I&#039;m sure you&#039;ll let me know if I am!&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;Anyways keep the great work coming!&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;Kyle Cook&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;Bowling Green&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/blockquote&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
== Name That Logical Fallacy &amp;lt;small&amp;gt;(49:01)&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt; ==&lt;br /&gt;
* Logical Fallacies&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;blockquote&amp;gt;&#039;Say I am arguing against someone about fossil fuel usage. I state that the average American should drive a fuel efficient vehicle to lower the amount of fuel that is used. The person that I am arguing against then tells me that since I drive a car that is not fuel efficient I cannot expect and tell others to drive different vehicles.&#039;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;skepchick.org/skepticsguide/viewtopic.php?t=4255&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/blockquote&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
== Randi Speaks &amp;lt;small&amp;gt;(52:37)&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt; ==&lt;br /&gt;
* The Uncompromising Observations of a Veteran Skeptic&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;James Randi returns to give his skeptical commentary in his own unique style.&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;This week&#039;s topic: Acupuncture&lt;br /&gt;
S: Randi, you have had some experience examining acupuncture in China. Can you tell us about that?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
JR: Yeah, I&#039;ve not inspected it from the direction of being the recipient of the needles, I&#039;m happy to report. But... I&#039;ve been to China several times now. I don&#039;t remember exactly which trip this was on, but at my own request, I asked to see the acupuncture clinic that they had neaby; we were at the&amp;amp;mdash;I think it&#039;s called the Beijing Mind-Brain Institute, if I recall correctly. There was a room full of people, most of them undergoing {{w|Moxibustion}}, which is rather longer needles than acupuncture, and sometimes as much as a foot long, and they&#039;re inserted into the arms and the shoulders and the chest and whatnot. And they have on the end of them a little platform about the size of a dime of very, very light metal. And a bit of punk &#039;&#039;(?)&#039;&#039;, some sort of incense, is placed on the end of it and ignited. They look a little bit like bizarre Christmas trees, though I can&#039;t say that I&#039;ve ever seen a Christmas tree that quite looked like a moxibustion patient. Their rooms are all filled with the smell of the incense and the attendants go around regularly. The idea of moxibustion is that the heat from the burning incense or punk or whatever it is on the end of the little platform is supposed to be transmitted down the narrow wire&amp;amp;mdash;now of course it&#039;s dissipated before it gets anywhere near the body, so there&#039;s no transmission of that kind at all, but after all, it&#039;s magic, so I guess we have to accept those rules. And when I was speaking to a couple of the elderly gentlemen there&amp;amp;mdash;both of them educated&amp;amp;mdash;one of them at MIT and the other fellow someplace in California&amp;amp;mdash;I&#039;ve forgotten at what center, but they were both very fluent in English. And they both told me, in so many words, &amp;quot;Oh no, we don&#039;t believe in moxibustion, but the patient received some relief from it, and it&#039;s probably psychological, but we never treat people who really have serious diseases that can be treated by pharmaceuticals or by surgery, but a lot of people come in here and they just want some comfort; they just want a bit of relief and they have some discomfort and we will often allow the moxibustionists to move in.&amp;quot; And they told me that the people practicing the moxibustion probably have different opinion; they probably believe that it worked, but &#039;&#039;they&#039;&#039; certainly didn&#039;t believe that it worked.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
And this is part of the problem in China, because they just have a such a huge populace, and so many ill people or people who believe that they&#039;re ill or people that need some sort of comfort and attention and TLC that this is one of the ways that they administer the TLC. And I thought that that was not a bad system, frankly, as long as they have real physicians, and these people were&amp;amp;mdash;real physicians who could find out whether or not they really&amp;amp;mdash;the patients really needed some sort of medical help. I can&#039;t object to that; it&#039;s a bit of comfort that is brought to these people, and they seem to be relatively satisfied with it. So, the acupuncture experience, just seeing these people sitting around smoking&amp;amp;mdash;well, smoking because they had incense burning on them&amp;amp;mdash;was most interesting, I must say, and gave me a bit of an insight into A) into Chinese medicine, and B) into Chinese psychology, I guess.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
S: Did you find that the scientists who admitted to they did not believe that it actually worked&amp;amp;mdash;were they disingenuous with the patients? Did they try to convince the patients that this was effective?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;!-- Hard to understand Randi in this paragraph --&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
JR: Well, it&#039;s hard to say, because the attitude that any teacher has&amp;amp;mdash;as in Japan as well; a sensei instructor in Japan has no patience with students at all. Their students don&#039;t ask questions; they are just told. They are just told, &amp;quot;Sit! Stand! Go over there! Give me your arm.&amp;quot; It&#039;s not... it doesn&#039;t seem to be a doctor-patient relationship as we would like to understand it. They are... &#039;&#039;(indistinct)&#039;&#039; and they just tell the patient what&#039;s going to happen; they don&#039;t take any arguments and they don&#039;t ask anybody&#039;s permission. So, it was very hard for me to tell; it was all very laconic. It&#039;s a different psychological approach. The master, after all&amp;amp;mdash;teacher is the one who does the declarations and the statements and the patient is just a &#039;&#039;(indistinct)&#039;&#039; for it. So again, that was hard for me to analyze and to interpret.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
S: Randi, thank you.&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;blockquote&amp;gt;Skeptical rogues and roguette-&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;My question is this: might it not be reasonable for a skeptical, rational-thinking individual to turn to an herbal remedy or other medication which has not made it through this rigorous vetting process, and which has only anecdotal or preliminary evidence supporting its use, if they are desperate for some treatment (any treatment), and if evidence-based medicine has nothing to offer them?&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;David&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;USA&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;Dr. Novellas Blog entry on this topic: www.theness.com/neurologicablog/default.asp?Display=150&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/blockquote&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

=== CO2 from walking vs driving &amp;lt;small&amp;gt;(37:43)&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt; ===&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;blockquote&amp;gt;I ran across this interesting article from the UK, where it&#039;s suggested that walking to the store is worse for the environment than driving;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/uk/science/article2195538.ece&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;Jaan&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;Rebecca&#039;s Blog on the topic&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;skepchick.org/skepticsguide/viewtopic.php?t=4238&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/blockquote&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

=== AI Sense of Humor &amp;lt;small&amp;gt;(44:29)&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt; ===&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;blockquote&amp;gt;As always thanks for providing an excellent podcast to start my week off just right. However last week I did find one thing to gripe about a bit. One of my favorite segments is the science or fiction portion and while I am definately not always right I generally understand the correct answer. However last week even after learning the true stories I did not feel that the AI with a sense of humor should be classified as science. To me &#039;sense of humor&#039; describes something more than just the way something is delivered. If I am understanding correctly this program detects variations in the voice that are commonly associated with telling a joke, much the same way a lie-detector tries to determine truth through bio patterns. Perhaps a &#039;joke-detecting&#039; AI was made, but just as sweaty palms don&#039;t constitute a lie, the right inflections in the voice don&#039;t always make humor.&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;Unfortunately I think we still only have &#039;Data&#039;; able to understand that a joke has been told, yet unable to find the humor in it. Hence, in my view, Data had no sense of humor.&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;Maybe I&#039;m way off base here, but I&#039;m sure you&#039;ll let me know if I am!&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;Anyways keep the great work coming!&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;Kyle Cook&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;Bowling Green&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/blockquote&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;blockquote&amp;gt;&#039;Say I am arguing against someone about fossil fuel usage. I state that the average American should drive a fuel efficient vehicle to lower the amount of fuel that is used. The person that I am arguing against then tells me that since I drive a car that is not fuel efficient I cannot expect and tell others to drive different vehicles.&#039;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;skepchick.org/skepticsguide/viewtopic.php?t=4255&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/blockquote&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

=== Correction on Ward Churchill &amp;lt;small&amp;gt;(18:38)&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt; ===&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;blockquote&amp;gt;I am usually in agreement with the panel on many topics, but I have to disagree with your assessment of Ward Churchill. In a speech at the University of Colorado, he had claimed he did not mean to portray the innocent victims, the janitors, and the passersby as &#039;little Eichmanns&#039;. My understanding of his claims was that the retaliation by the Middle East is in response to the United States&#039; foreign policy, which tends to mistreat people and countries who are not in agreement. Obviously, it is to destroy things and kill people, whether it is 9/11 or our misadventures in Iraq, but the explanation that if we get people mad, they will want to retaliate makes some sense to me. I didn&#039;t interpret his essay as claiming that 9/11 was an inside job, otherwise I would dismiss that claim as nonsense. What evidence do you have that Churchill said 9/11 was an inside job?&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;Eric Isenbarger&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;US&amp;lt;/blockquote&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

=== The Man with No Brain &amp;lt;small&amp;gt;(20:48)&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt; ===&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;blockquote&amp;gt;Hello Skeptic Torchbearers!&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;I am a fairly recent listener. I got turned on (heh) to your podcast after listening to Dr. Novella as a guest on Astronomy Cast. Needless to say, you are now in the top 2 of podcasts I listen to. Although, admittedly I only listen to 2.&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;But, you guys are awesome and a treat to listen to. Even Rebecca, who, for a grazer can actually be pretty witty at times..although not quite to the level of Perry.&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;I just ran across this today and thought I&#039;d run it past you guys as it seems to be right up Dr. Novellas alley in particular. It sounds more than a little bizarre and suspicious:&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;www.newscientist.com/article/dn12301-man-with-tiny-brain-shocks-doctors.html&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;I find it quite difficult to believe that a human being with by an account up to only 25% of a brain can leave a healthy life.&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;The article seems fairly well written and at least gives somewhat of a sense of credibility.&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;Thanks for your time and keep up the great work!&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;Eric Berns&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;Alberta, Canada.&amp;lt;/blockquote&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

* The Uncompromising Observations of a Veteran Skeptic&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;James Randi returns to give his skeptical commentary in his own unique style.&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;This week&#039;s topic: Who I met in the Green Room&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
S: I am now speaking with James Randi. Randi, thanks for talking to me today.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
JR: Great pleasure.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
S: Now as many of our listeners know, Randi has been gracious enough to contribute a regular segment to &#039;&#039;The Skeptics&#039; Guide&#039;&#039; called &amp;quot;Randi Speaks&amp;quot;, although that segment has been on hiatus for a number of reasons. Events have conspired to foil our attempts to get him back on: TAM 5, the aftermath of that, then Randi, you were traveling quite a bit and then there were some technical difficulties. But now, it&amp;amp;mdash;we have come up with a solution: We&#039;re going to have a slight format change to &amp;quot;Randi Speaks&amp;quot;. One of the Rogues&amp;amp;mdash;today it&#039;s me&amp;amp;mdash;will be interviewing Randi just to briefly ask him questions and then we&#039;ll be recording the episode more like an interview, so that solved all of our technical problems. So, Randi, the question I have for you this week is this: you have a long experience being interviewed on television, making TV appearances; you&#039;ve met a lot of TV stars and famous people, and I&#039;ve heard you tell a lot of stories about your interesting encounters with some of those people. Is there anything that sticks out in your memory, any encounter with a famous TV personality who was particularly gullible, let us say, or lacked certain skeptical skills that comes to mind?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
JR: No. Next question?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
S: &#039;&#039;(laughs)&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
JR: Well, yeah; as a matter of fact, I was disappointed; I did a&amp;amp;mdash;{{w|Mike Douglas}} show some years ago. God, I&#039;m talking about ancient history now. It was... I think it was done out of Philadelphia, and... I went into the green room&amp;amp;mdash;this was precious. At least I think it is. You&#039;ll be the judge of that. There was {{w|Eartha Kitt}} and {{w|Pearl Bailey}} were both there, and they were gossiping away and having some laughs, and so I walked in, introduced myself, and... they seemed to get along all right, until&amp;amp;mdash;I&#039;ve forgotten how it came up, but the subject of God came up, so I put my two cents&#039; worth in, and I was immediately assailed by both of them, particularly Pearl Bailey. &amp;quot;Oh, then you&#039;re going straight to hell. I won&#039;t see you after I&#039;m dead,&amp;quot; which is probably quite true anyway, but... then, of all things... I hope you&#039;re ready for this: In walks {{w|Mother Teresa}}. She was accompanied by two nuns that were {{w|Fullback (American football)|fullbacks}}, I&#039;m sure. They actually had mustaches. They were nuns, but they had mustaches. That happens to women at certain ages of certain characteristics&amp;amp;mdash;I don&#039;t know anything about that and I don&#039;t &#039;&#039;want&#039;&#039; to know anything about that. But they were rough-lookin&#039; babes, let me tell you. And they walked practically touching her on each side. She took a seat at the far side of the room; didn&#039;t even look at anybody; she was a holy woman, after all. And the two nuns stood on either side of her, facing us. And Eartha Kitt made so bold as to go over and approach her, where&#039;s she&#039;s sort of huddled over&amp;amp;mdash;she got a Bible in her hands; what else? In her hands, and she&#039;s sort of looking into the mirror, and Eartha Kitt wanted to introduce herself, and Mother Teresa turned and snarled at her, saying &amp;quot;can&#039;t you see I&#039;m praying?!&amp;quot; And Eartha Kitt sort of backed up and she said, &amp;quot;oh, excuse me&amp;quot;, and the two bodyguards stepped forward and really shouldered Eartha Kitt out of the way. It was quite something to see; I&#039;ll tell you. I never got around to introducing myself to Mother Teresa; she was taken out there and she did about 40 seconds asking for money, I think it was. And then she was escorted out of the building into a limousine that could hardly turn the corners, it was so long. That was sort of a religious cabal that was organized against me, I believe, but maybe not. Maybe it just happened that way. But Eartha Kitt and Pearl Bailey really lit in at me like crazy. Now, I wasn&#039;t terribly surprised at that, but they seemed to be very, very defensive, and I&#039;ve done that with most celebrities who are&amp;amp;mdash;they&#039;re used to having their way; they&#039;re used to being recognized and given precedence in many matters, of course. And so they speak up and say their peace, which I respect. I&#039;m all for that. But... boy, I don&#039;t find very many of them that will sympathize with my point of view of first of all, an atheist in religion and a serious skeptic of paranormal events and whatnot.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
S: Would you say that, in your experience, they tend to be more intolerant because they&#039;re&amp;amp;mdash;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
JR: Oh, yes. Well, they&#039;re used to having their way. They&#039;re not used to being questioned &#039;cause their fans smother them with affection and agreement and always nodding and smiling. So they&#039;re not used to coming up against anybody with any opinions that might differ from theirs. So, I get they&#039;re sort of&amp;amp;mdash;they&#039;re spoiled brats.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
S: Well, Randi, thank you very much for that anecdote. I did, in fact, find it adorable.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
JR: Thank you.&lt;br /&gt;

== Questions and E-mails ==&lt;br /&gt;
=== Correction on Ward Churchill &amp;lt;small&amp;gt;(18:38)&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt; ===&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;blockquote&amp;gt;I am usually in agreement with the panel on many topics, but I have to disagree with your assessment of Ward Churchill. In a speech at the University of Colorado, he had claimed he did not mean to portray the innocent victims, the janitors, and the passersby as &#039;little Eichmanns&#039;. My understanding of his claims was that the retaliation by the Middle East is in response to the United States&#039; foreign policy, which tends to mistreat people and countries who are not in agreement. Obviously, it is to destroy things and kill people, whether it is 9/11 or our misadventures in Iraq, but the explanation that if we get people mad, they will want to retaliate makes some sense to me. I didn&#039;t interpret his essay as claiming that 9/11 was an inside job, otherwise I would dismiss that claim as nonsense. What evidence do you have that Churchill said 9/11 was an inside job?&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;Eric Isenbarger&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;US&amp;lt;/blockquote&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== The Man with No Brain &amp;lt;small&amp;gt;(20:48)&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt; ===&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;blockquote&amp;gt;Hello Skeptic Torchbearers!&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;I am a fairly recent listener. I got turned on (heh) to your podcast after listening to Dr. Novella as a guest on Astronomy Cast. Needless to say, you are now in the top 2 of podcasts I listen to. Although, admittedly I only listen to 2.&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;But, you guys are awesome and a treat to listen to. Even Rebecca, who, for a grazer can actually be pretty witty at times..although not quite to the level of Perry.&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;I just ran across this today and thought I&#039;d run it past you guys as it seems to be right up Dr. Novellas alley in particular. It sounds more than a little bizarre and suspicious:&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;www.newscientist.com/article/dn12301-man-with-tiny-brain-shocks-doctors.html&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;I find it quite difficult to believe that a human being with by an account up to only 25% of a brain can leave a healthy life.&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;The article seems fairly well written and at least gives somewhat of a sense of credibility.&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;Thanks for your time and keep up the great work!&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;Eric Berns&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;Alberta, Canada.&amp;lt;/blockquote&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

=== Government Conspiracies &amp;lt;small&amp;gt;(26:53)&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt; ===&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;blockquote&amp;gt;Steven, Bob, Rebecca, Jay, Perry, and Evan (whew!),&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;I&#039;ll start off as most do by thanking you for a wonderful podcast. Having just recently discovered the show, I promptly signed up for a 1 year membership to support your work and began working my way through previous episodes. On to my question (apologies if it&#039;s been discussed before and I haven&#039;t yet gotten to it!):&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;What advice do you have for skeptics and critical thinkers for evaluating &#039;conspiracy theories&#039; with regard to the government? And by this, I don&#039;t mean the complete idiocy that takes the form of moon landing hoax conspiracies or flying saucers and the like. I mean the more prevalent &#039;theories&#039; such as information suppression, cover-ups, clandestine deals, corruption, all the way up to more extreme things like 9/11 involvement, election fixing, etc. Personally speaking, I find no shortage of clear and well-publicized issues that anger me about the current administration. However, the items reported in the news are often not enough some people and other things are talked about as though they were fact. It can often be very difficult to tell where the facts end and the theories and &#039;woo-woo&#039; begin. When I challenge people on their claims, I&#039;m called either naive or some sort of crypto-republican or Bush apologist. And of course I&#039;m reminded that our government (both parties) has a history of cover-ups, scandals, and conspiracies so perhaps this casts things in a different light?&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;Sorry that this question has turned out to be so political, but really my question is more generic. How might scientific methods or critical thinking be applied to these kinds of claims?&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;Thanks,&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;Jeret Lemontt&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;Santa Barbara, CA&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/blockquote&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Herbs, Hags, and Kids &amp;lt;small&amp;gt;(31:22)&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt; ===&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;blockquote&amp;gt;First off I want to say I love your podcast, you are by far the best one out of many that I subscribe to and hope you can answer a few questions of mine.&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;I have three separate questions for the panel, first, I just finished listening to episode number 48 with Steve Mirsky,(another great podcaster I listen to) where you guys just touched on herbal remedies such as Ginko Biloba and how full of B.S. much of it is. Could you guys perhaps go down the list of some of the more popular ones and debunk some of their claims, if not anything else do it for my mother, who is a fanatic for them, some truth would be nice.&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;My second question is one for myself, I suscribe to a podcast called mysterious universe, not for the science, but for the muse of entertainment it brings. One subject that has come up a few times is of shadow people or &#039;old hag syndrome&#039; where a person is lying awake and unable to move and witnessing a shadow figure climbing over them. I would love to hear to skeptical/ truth on this matter and what is exactly happening during these reported events.&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;My last question is, who&#039;s kids do I keep hearing in the background of some of the episodes? Just one of those annoying little questions I keep wondering for no apparent reason.&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;Thank you guys, I look forward to more and please to Rebecca that no, I will not marry her so please stop proposing.&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;Ian Horner&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;San Diego, California&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;Some Ginkgo references:&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/query.fcgi?cmd=Retrieve&amp;amp;db=pubmed&amp;amp;dopt=Abstract&amp;amp;list_uids=12186600&amp;amp;query_hl=1&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/blockquote&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
=== Skepticism a Movement? &amp;lt;small&amp;gt;(45:14)&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt; ===&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;blockquote&amp;gt;The question from the last podcast (1/13/06) about when you became a skeptic sounded uncomfortably to me like discussions I have heard about when I came to Christ or when I came to organic food. I dont mean to slander you all (I listen to the podcast religiously (oops!)) and I think you are great. But I dont think that skepticism is something you come to or are converted to. My friends refer to me as a skeptic but I dont think of myself as such. I just believe in using what intelligence I have coupled with the information available to view the world critically and with clear sight. Let us be honest: if we were living 300 years ago we all might well believe in ghosts and we would all believe that the earth is the center of the universe. We know today that there are no ghosts to an extent the same way we know that the atom consists of a positive nucleus surrounded by a swarm of negative electrons: somebody who did the research told us. Looking at skepticism as some kind of movement desirable in itself leads to what you briefly discussed at the beginning of the global warming segment, i.e., people who ignore reasonable evidence get some credibility just because they are skeptics.&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;Don Jennings&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;Torrance, CA, USA&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/blockquote&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Scientology &amp;lt;small&amp;gt;(48:41)&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt; ===&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;blockquote&amp;gt;Thank you for all the hard work you put into each podcast.&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;I am interested in your views on Scientology (I hope I am spelling it correctly!). Obviously, I know that none of you believe in Xemu (sic). But I am more intrested in how this cult is able to attract followers.&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;I am sure that you get plenty of show topics from listeners, but I think a show about Scientologies&#039; beliefs, and how the cult operates would be an informative show.&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;I just started listening in November, and I have not been able to listen to all the back episodes, so please forgive me if you have already done a show on this topic. If you have done this topic already, could you let me know the show number?&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;Thank you again, and I am happy to be one of your 10,000 listeners.&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;Also, tell RW that I cannot send her a proposal as I am happly married with three kids. Sorry.&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;William Watkinson&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;Detroit, MI&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/blockquote&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
== Randi Speaks &amp;lt;small&amp;gt;(55:59)&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt; ==&lt;br /&gt;
* The Uncompromising Observations of a Veteran Skeptic&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;Each week James Randi gives a skeptical commentary in his own unique style.&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;This week&#039;s topic: That&#039;s My Line.&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
JR: Hello. This is James Randi. I was reminded the other day of an encounter that I had back in 1980 with a gentleman named {{w|James Hydrick}}. Hydrick dressed in sort of... black pajamas; he thought he was a kung fu expert of some kind and perhaps he did have some experience in that line, but he had learned a very special trick. It got him on the program that I&#039;ve always called &amp;quot;That&#039;s Inedible!&amp;quot;&amp;amp;mdash;I think the name was actually &amp;quot;{{w|That&#039;s Incredible!}}&amp;quot;, but John Davidson was taken in completely by him, as he was by many other people. Hydrick could move small objects on a tabletop, apparently merely by concentrating on them. He could also turn the pages, or a page at a time, in a telephone directory, just simply by lurching toward the thing and making strange gestures. Well, it wasn&#039;t much of a puzzle if you had any knowledge of the conjuring techniques. Hydrick was simply blowing; blowing along the table and that would raise the page and turn it over. I must admit, however, that he was very good at it. He had the ability to hide the fact that he was blowing by fixing his lips in what we call a &amp;quot;vent&amp;quot; position. That&#039;s a ventriloquist&#039;s position. The ventriloquist uses this particular mouth structure or shape in order to be able to speak without moving his lips.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In 1980, {{w|Goodson-Todman}} Productions came up with a new show format. It was called &amp;quot;{{w|That&#039;s My Line}}&amp;quot;. No, not &amp;quot;{{w|What&#039;s My Line}}&amp;quot;; &amp;quot;That&#039;s My Line&amp;quot;. It was rather short-lived; I think it only lasted for one season. I was on the very first two episodes. {{w|Bob Barker}} was the emcee of the show. On the first episode, I appeared as Adam Jersin&amp;amp;mdash;that&#039;s Adam J-E-R-S-I-N, which is an anagram for James Randi, if you work on it carefully. They tried not to show extreme close-ups of me so I might not be recognized, but I posed as a psychic, and I was able to fool the audience into believing that I had some sort of psychic powers. But then Bob Barker revealed the whole thing and everybody was much happier. I certainly was. My second appearance on that show was to confront James Hydrick with his trick of blowing telephone pages over. That was quite an adventure. {{w|Mark Goodson}} was the director on the show and he just about went nuts. You must understand that this was a very big studio in the Los Angeles area; very large audience was accommodated and we had to make very special preparations for Mr. Hydrick. I got to the studio very early that day, before Hydrick arrived, and I demonstrated to Mark Goodson that the air conditioning would have to be turned off, which was rather a disastrous decision to have to make because it was a large building; there were lots of hot lights going and the audience would probably be a bit uncomfortable. As it turned out, they were. I simply turned a Styrofoam cup on its side and I showed Mark Goodson that the cup would run around in circles merely because of the natural ambiance of the studio with its moving air conditioning currents. So we turned the whole system off. That had to be done a good hour before Hydrick arrived to do his demonstration. Hydrick did his regular demo of turning the page of the telephone book, and then it was my turn. I stepped over to the table and distributed some Styrofoam peanuts, the kind of thing that you use to package delicate objects, all around the table. Hydrick was stymied. He couldn&#039;t blow, or the Styrofoam tablets would run in all directions, of course, and it would be very obvious what he was doing. Because he hummed and hawed for such a long period of time, Mark Goodson had to tell the audience that they could go out to lunch and come back in about an hour. But, meanwhile, the whole staff, all of the crew, the cameramen, the editors, the whole business had to be on duty in case Hydrick suddenly decided that he was possessed of psychic powers again. Well, the upshot of the thing was that Hydrick couldn&#039;t do anything. When the audience came back in again, they didn&#039;t see a demonstration of any kind. Except that I duplicated the Hydrick trick simply by blowing. And I think I did it rather well. Shortly after that, Hydrick vanished from sight. It turned out he&#039;d been arrested; he was a very sad character and had a long history of such misdemeanors. Look it up on our website. This is James Randi.&lt;br /&gt;

=== Government Conspiracies &amp;lt;small&amp;gt;(26:53)&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt; ===&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;blockquote&amp;gt;Steven, Bob, Rebecca, Jay, Perry, and Evan (whew!),&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;I&#039;ll start off as most do by thanking you for a wonderful podcast. Having just recently discovered the show, I promptly signed up for a 1 year membership to support your work and began working my way through previous episodes. On to my question (apologies if it&#039;s been discussed before and I haven&#039;t yet gotten to it!):&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;What advice do you have for skeptics and critical thinkers for evaluating &#039;conspiracy theories&#039; with regard to the government? And by this, I don&#039;t mean the complete idiocy that takes the form of moon landing hoax conspiracies or flying saucers and the like. I mean the more prevalent &#039;theories&#039; such as information suppression, cover-ups, clandestine deals, corruption, all the way up to more extreme things like 9/11 involvement, election fixing, etc. Personally speaking, I find no shortage of clear and well-publicized issues that anger me about the current administration. However, the items reported in the news are often not enough some people and other things are talked about as though they were fact. It can often be very difficult to tell where the facts end and the theories and &#039;woo-woo&#039; begin. When I challenge people on their claims, I&#039;m called either naive or some sort of crypto-republican or Bush apologist. And of course I&#039;m reminded that our government (both parties) has a history of cover-ups, scandals, and conspiracies so perhaps this casts things in a different light?&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;Sorry that this question has turned out to be so political, but really my question is more generic. How might scientific methods or critical thinking be applied to these kinds of claims?&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;Thanks,&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;Jeret Lemontt&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;Santa Barbara, CA&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/blockquote&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Herbs, Hags, and Kids &amp;lt;small&amp;gt;(31:22)&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt; ===&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;blockquote&amp;gt;First off I want to say I love your podcast, you are by far the best one out of many that I subscribe to and hope you can answer a few questions of mine.&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;I have three separate questions for the panel, first, I just finished listening to episode number 48 with Steve Mirsky,(another great podcaster I listen to) where you guys just touched on herbal remedies such as Ginko Biloba and how full of B.S. much of it is. Could you guys perhaps go down the list of some of the more popular ones and debunk some of their claims, if not anything else do it for my mother, who is a fanatic for them, some truth would be nice.&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;My second question is one for myself, I suscribe to a podcast called mysterious universe, not for the science, but for the muse of entertainment it brings. One subject that has come up a few times is of shadow people or &#039;old hag syndrome&#039; where a person is lying awake and unable to move and witnessing a shadow figure climbing over them. I would love to hear to skeptical/ truth on this matter and what is exactly happening during these reported events.&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;My last question is, who&#039;s kids do I keep hearing in the background of some of the episodes? Just one of those annoying little questions I keep wondering for no apparent reason.&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;Thank you guys, I look forward to more and please to Rebecca that no, I will not marry her so please stop proposing.&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;Ian Horner&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;San Diego, California&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;Some Ginkgo references:&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/query.fcgi?cmd=Retrieve&amp;amp;db=pubmed&amp;amp;dopt=Abstract&amp;amp;list_uids=12186600&amp;amp;query_hl=1&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/blockquote&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
=== Skepticism a Movement? &amp;lt;small&amp;gt;(45:14)&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt; ===&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;blockquote&amp;gt;The question from the last podcast (1/13/06) about when you became a skeptic sounded uncomfortably to me like discussions I have heard about when I came to Christ or when I came to organic food. I dont mean to slander you all (I listen to the podcast religiously (oops!)) and I think you are great. But I dont think that skepticism is something you come to or are converted to. My friends refer to me as a skeptic but I dont think of myself as such. I just believe in using what intelligence I have coupled with the information available to view the world critically and with clear sight. Let us be honest: if we were living 300 years ago we all might well believe in ghosts and we would all believe that the earth is the center of the universe. We know today that there are no ghosts to an extent the same way we know that the atom consists of a positive nucleus surrounded by a swarm of negative electrons: somebody who did the research told us. Looking at skepticism as some kind of movement desirable in itself leads to what you briefly discussed at the beginning of the global warming segment, i.e., people who ignore reasonable evidence get some credibility just because they are skeptics.&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;Don Jennings&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;Torrance, CA, USA&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/blockquote&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Scientology &amp;lt;small&amp;gt;(48:41)&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt; ===&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;blockquote&amp;gt;Thank you for all the hard work you put into each podcast.&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;I am interested in your views on Scientology (I hope I am spelling it correctly!). Obviously, I know that none of you believe in Xemu (sic). But I am more intrested in how this cult is able to attract followers.&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;I am sure that you get plenty of show topics from listeners, but I think a show about Scientologies&#039; beliefs, and how the cult operates would be an informative show.&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;I just started listening in November, and I have not been able to listen to all the back episodes, so please forgive me if you have already done a show on this topic. If you have done this topic already, could you let me know the show number?&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;Thank you again, and I am happy to be one of your 10,000 listeners.&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;Also, tell RW that I cannot send her a proposal as I am happly married with three kids. Sorry.&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;William Watkinson&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;Detroit, MI&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/blockquote&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;blockquote&amp;gt;Hi Guys,&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt; Only a &#039;baboon&#039; could mistake the Moon for a UFO huh? Well I&#039;m delighted to be able to supply solid video evidence against this outragous notion! Being able to back up Rebecca, too, just makes it all the sweeter!&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;Rebecca: you are absolutely correct, and if I were you, I wouldn&#039;t be putting up with such close-minded thinking!&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;You see, a number of years ago, 2002 I think, I was intending to film the Moon as it rose above the River Tay, in Scotland for a small movie project known as &#039;being bored in charge of a video camera.&#039;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;What I filmed was this:&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;www.stevehammond.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/Moon_UFO_DIVX.avi&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;I didn&#039;t think I was going to get anything at all because of the clouds, but a small break in the cloud did indeed appear at the right time. Now because the clouds were appearing in streaks, only the centre portion of the Moon was visible. Chopping the top and bottom of off the moon meant that only a rectangular portion in the middle was actually visible. And because there was evidently a large amount of dust in the atmosphere at the time, the result was bright red. The whole apparation lasted for a few minutes.&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;Now I know full well that this was the Moon; I&#039;d planned for it at that place and that time using some astronomy software. I defy anyone to have casually glanced at this apparently bright red rectangle hovering over the river for a minute and immediately thought of the Moon!&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;Anyway, thanks for the podcasts which keep me entertained on my walks to work in the morning!&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;Steve Hammond&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;Scotland&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;P.S.

== Randi Speaks &amp;lt;small&amp;gt;(55:38)&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt; == &lt;br /&gt;
* The Uncompromising Observations of a Veteran Skeptic&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;Each week James Randi gives a skeptical commentary in his own unique style.&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;This week&#039;s topic: Coincidence&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
JR: Hello. This is James Randi. Today I&#039;d like to talk to you a little bit about coincidence. I&#039;m often asked about the subject; people say to me, &amp;quot;how can you possibly explain...&amp;quot; and then they give me some coincidence that they&#039;ve experienced in their lives or, more frequently, that somebody else has told them about. My brief response to such an inquiry is that if a remarkable coincidence or two didn&#039;t happen to you every now and then, &#039;&#039;that&#039;&#039; in itself would be remarkable. But as you well know, people just don&#039;t seem to understand statistics or probability. Many years ago my good friend {{w|Martin Gardner}} told me about a column he had done for &#039;&#039;Scientific American&#039;&#039;, one of the regular columns that he supplied them with during his heyday, and this was an April 1st column, so they should have been ready for it, but readers really weren&#039;t. Martin introduced his fictitious character&amp;amp;mdash;at least one hopes fictitious&amp;amp;mdash;Dr. Matrix. And he told readers that during an interview with Dr. Matrix, he had been told that the millionth digit of {{w|Pi (number)|pi}} was five. This fact had been arrived at by Dr. Matrix, or so he claimed, by numerology and astrology; a good combination, I&#039;m sure you&#039;ll agree. Well, that column was published in &#039;&#039;Scientific American&#039;&#039;, and it caused the usual number of chuckles and also some silly letters saying &amp;quot;how do you do this by numerology and astrology&amp;quot;, but we can bypass those. The really remarkable result was that a mathematician at MIT wrote to Martin a couple of years after the column had appeared and said, &amp;quot;guess what? We put it into the computer and lo and behold, the millionth digit of pi &#039;&#039;is&#039;&#039; five.&amp;quot; What are the chances? Exactly one in ten. Of course, it depends on where you start counting places of decimals: after the &amp;quot;3.&amp;quot; or beginning with the three. There are several possibilities of error and... let&#039;s say... variations here.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
My paternal grandfather was very fond of telling me a story&amp;amp;mdash;not a personal story in this case, but one that he said had happened to a friend of his who worked at the same company where he did. This friend said that he rear-ended a car&amp;amp;mdash;I believe they were both Fords. And when they exchanged pertinent information, they found out that, &#039;&#039;wow&#039;&#039;, the cars that had collided were in exactly the same relationship that they&#039;d been on the assembly line many years before, because the vehicle identification numbers were consecutive. Now I don&#039;t know if this was true; I don&#039;t know that granddad knew whether or not it was really true. But suppose for a moment that it was true. In the first place, cars even, aside from trucks or bicycles or motorcycles, were not specified when looking for this coincidence. Consecutive license plate numbers or drivers&#039; license numbers would have been equally acceptable, I&#039;m sure, as a remarkable coincidence. So we have to consider that, again, if this was actually true, there are &#039;&#039;many&#039;&#039;possibilities for it to be true, because we haven&#039;t defined the parameters in advance.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Recently I made mention on Swift of the fact that many media personalities have fallen for the woo-woo stuff. {{w|Glenn Beck}} of CNN certainly fell for {{w|John Edward}}&#039;s line of nonsense just recently. I pointed out that {{w|Katie Couric}}, formerly with the NBC &#039;&#039;{{w|Today (U.S. TV program)|Today Show}}&#039;&#039;, accepted John Edward as well. And {{w|Diane Rehm}} of PBS&amp;amp;mdash;NPR I should say, more correctly&amp;amp;mdash;has certainly fallen for this sort of thing several times in her interviews. But during a repeat visit of Edward&#039;s to the NBC Today show while Katie Couric was there, he told her something really remarkable that she considered to be remarkable too. He said that during his previous appearance there, she had denied that she had a brother who had committed suicide, or some statement equally pertinent. Edward revealed that he had done a bit of research. Parking his car a couple of months after that, he had been approached by a parking attendant who told him that Edward had obviously been picking up on his vibrations because his brother had committed suicide. And, said Edward, it was remarkable because, if you drew a direct line through Edward and Katie Couric to where the parking lot was, half a mile away in Manhattan, it would come to just the place where this parking attendant was working. Folks, when you&#039;ve got people believing crap like this, you don&#039;t have a hard time being a psychic. This is James Randi.&lt;br /&gt;

== Randi Speaks &amp;lt;small&amp;gt;(55:38)&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt; == &lt;br /&gt;
* The Uncompromising Observations of a Veteran Skeptic&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;Each week James Randi gives a skeptical commentary in his own unique style.&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;This week&#039;s topic: Coincidence&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
JR: Hello. This is James Randi. Today I&#039;d like to talk to you a little bit about coincidence. I&#039;m often asked about the subject; people say to me, &amp;quot;how can you possibly explain...&amp;quot; and then they give me some coincidence that they&#039;ve experienced in their lives or, more frequently, that somebody else has told them about. My brief response to such an inquiry is that if a remarkable coincidence or two didn&#039;t happen to you every now and then, &#039;&#039;that&#039;&#039; in itself would be remarkable. But as you well know, people just don&#039;t seem to understand statistics or probability. Many years ago my good friend {{w|Martin Gardner}} told me about a column he had done for &#039;&#039;Scientific American&#039;&#039;, one of the regular columns that he supplied them with during his heyday, and this was an April 1st column, so they should have been ready for it, but readers really weren&#039;t. Martin introduced his fictitious character&amp;amp;mdash;at least one hopes fictitious&amp;amp;mdash;Dr. Matrix. And he told readers that during an interview with Dr. Matrix, he had been told that the millionth digit of {{w|Pi (number)|pi}} was five. This fact had been arrived at by Dr. Matrix, or so he claimed, by numerology and astrology; a good combination, I&#039;m sure you&#039;ll agree. Well, that column was published in &#039;&#039;Scientific American&#039;&#039;, and it caused the usual number of chuckles and also some silly letters saying &amp;quot;how do you do this by numerology and astrology&amp;quot;, but we can bypass those. The really remarkable result was that a mathematician at MIT wrote to Martin a couple of years after the column had appeared and said, &amp;quot;guess what? We put it into the computer and lo and behold, the millionth digit of pi &#039;&#039;is&#039;&#039; five.&amp;quot; What are the chances? Exactly one in ten. Of course, it depends on where you start counting places of decimals: after the &amp;quot;3.&amp;quot; or beginning with the three. There are several possibilities of error and... let&#039;s say... variations here.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
My paternal grandfather was very fond of telling me a story&amp;amp;mdash;not a personal story in this case, but one that he said had happened to a friend of his who worked at the same company where he did. This friend said that he rear-ended a car&amp;amp;mdash;I believe they were both Fords. And when they exchanged pertinent information, they found out that, &#039;&#039;wow&#039;&#039;, the cars that had collided were in exactly the same relationship that they&#039;d been on the assembly line many years before, because the vehicle identification numbers were consecutive. Now I don&#039;t know if this was true; I don&#039;t know that granddad knew whether or not it was really true. But suppose for a moment that it was true. In the first place, cars even, aside from trucks or bicycles or motorcycles, were not specified when looking for this coincidence. Consecutive license plate numbers or drivers&#039; license numbers would have been equally acceptable, I&#039;m sure, as a remarkable coincidence. So we have to consider that, again, if this was actually true, there are &#039;&#039;many&#039;&#039;possibilities for it to be true, because we haven&#039;t defined the parameters in advance.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Recently I made mention on Swift of the fact that many media personalities have fallen for the woo-woo stuff. {{w|Glenn Beck}} of CNN certainly fell for {{w|John Edward}}&#039;s line of nonsense just recently. I pointed out that {{w|Katie Couric}}, formerly with the NBC &#039;&#039;{{w|Today (U.S. TV program)|Today Show}}&#039;&#039;, accepted John Edward as well. And {{w|Diane Rehm}} of PBS&amp;amp;mdash;NPR I should say, more correctly&amp;amp;mdash;has certainly fallen for this sort of thing several times in her interviews. But during a repeat visit of Edward&#039;s to the NBC Today show while Katie Couric was there, he told her something really remarkable that she considered to be remarkable too. He said that during his previous appearance there, she had denied that she had a brother who had committed suicide, or some statement equally pertinent. Edward revealed that he had done a bit of research. Parking his car a couple of months after that, he had been approached by a parking attendant who told him that Edward had obviously been picking up on his vibrations because his brother had committed suicide. And, said Edward, it was remarkable because, if you drew a direct line through Edward and Katie Couric to where the parking lot was, half a mile away in Manhattan, it would come to just the place where this parking attendant was working. Folks, when you&#039;ve got people believing crap like this, you don&#039;t have a hard time being a psychic. This is James Randi.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
=== Announcing the NeuroLogica Blog &amp;lt;small&amp;gt;(0:48)&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt; ===&lt;br /&gt;
* Dr. Novella has started a daily blog on Neuroscience, Skepticism, and Critical Thinking&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;www.theness.com/NeuroLogicaBlog&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
S: So the first news item for this first show of 2007 is that I have started a new blog.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
R: Wow!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
J: Yay, Steve!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
E: What&#039;s a blog?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
R: That&#039;s fantastic.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
S: &#039;&#039;(chuckles)&#039;&#039; It&#039;s the NeuroLogica blog. Of course, the links will be on the Skeptics&#039; Guide site and also the NESS site, and it&#039;s going to be about&amp;amp;mdash;it&#039;s a daily blog; it&#039;ll be about neuroscience, skepticism, and critical thinking. So, kind of an even mix of just general skeptical stuff; the kind of things we talk about on this show, but also I&#039;ll be spending a lot of time talking about neurology and neuroscience, which is my specialty. I already have, I think, six or seven entries in there&amp;amp;mdash;as Jay and I were working on the site, I wanted to put up some entries, but January 1st is its official start date, and I&#039;ll try to keep it daily from that point forward. So check it out.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
B: Steve, are you going to maintain multiple entries as you have now?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
S: What do you mean?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
B: I was kinda surprised to see a blog with so many different sections to it. You know, like so many different things that you&#039;re blogging on. But I guess a lot of it had to do with the end-of-the-year news and stuff.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
S: All of skepticism is fair game for the blog. And there&#039;ll probably be half that and half neuroscience. But it&#039;ll be&amp;amp;mdash;I&#039;m just getting started, so I&#039;m sure it&#039;ll evolve over time as well.&lt;br /&gt;

=== Salt Lamps &amp;lt;small&amp;gt;(24:31)&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt; ===&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;blockquote&amp;gt;Hi guys!&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;I&#039;ve been listening to the podcast for several months now and enjoy it immensely. Happy to hear you&#039;re gaining the popularity you deserve.&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;I received the most ridiculous present for Christmas this year and immediately thought of the skeptic&#039;s guide. My brother&#039;s girlfriend got the entire family Himalayan Salt Lamps. At first I thought it was just another funky looking light fixture. But upon reading the included pamphlet I was bombarded by the most pseudo-science I&#039;ve ever personally encountered in my entire life. I&#039;ve included scans for your enjoyment but my personal favorite how it &#039;can reorganize the epidermal layer of our skin&#039;. You can imagine my horror when I learned the girlfriend is actually the one who wrote the pamphlet and sells the lamps for $25 a piece. On the bright side, it&#039;s a decent light and I enjoy joking that it&#039;s one of the Sankara Stones from Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom.&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;Keep up the great work and good luck in the coming year.&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;Joe&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;Indiana&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;Review article of ionizers and asthma: www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/query.fcgi?db=pubmed&amp;amp;cmd=Retrieve&amp;amp;dopt=AbstractPlus&amp;amp;list_uids=12917939&amp;amp;query_hl=3&amp;amp;itool=pubmed_docsum&amp;lt;/blockquote&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
S: The next e-mail comes from Philippe Chartouni in Lebanon, and he writes:&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;blockquote&amp;gt;Dear All,&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;Newly arrived to your show, I quickly became addicted. I have one question that you may have addressed before. Is there any UFO story that is worth considering or pursuing? If such story exists, then there may be room for (skeptic) dreams that we sometimes need.&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;Thank you for this very much enriching and entertaining show.&amp;lt;/blockquote&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So he&#039;s basically saying he wants to know if he can hold out any hope that we&#039;re being visited by aliens.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
P: No.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
S: &#039;&#039;(chuckles)&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
E: Oh yeah; you can hold all the hope you want.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
P: By the way, there&#039;s UFOs constantly, right? All the time there&#039;s things in the sky that can&#039;t be identified. But&amp;amp;mdash;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
R: Well, yeah. Let&#039;s... let&#039;s define UFO. &amp;quot;Unidentified Flying Object&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
P: But what he&#039;s talking about is not just that. He means extraterrestrial craft. To that, there&#039;s&amp;amp;mdash;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
R: Which is not entirely out of the question. I mean, it could happen. But the fact is that we just haven&#039;t seen any definitive evidence thus far.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
S: There&#039;s not even any mildly compelling or interesting evidence, in my opinion.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
R: I mean, if you think of all the sophistication it would take for another alien being to contact us, why would they be abducting... you know, hicks in the country instead of trying to actually make real contact with us and communicate with us.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
P: And the limitations of interstellar are... significant.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
J: Yeah, but the fact is, it&#039;s statistically likely that aliens exist and therefore, you know, it is possible that we could be visited someday, so I would say the answer to the question is yes, there could be some evidence that comes up that would be worthwhile investigating. Of course.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
B: Yeah, but is there any UFO story existing&amp;amp;mdash;we&#039;re assuming it&#039;s an existing UFO story and the answer to that, I think, would be no.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
P: Not even remotely.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
S: Well, of course when you ask UFO proponents to give us their best evidence, they usually point to what we refer to as the three-foot stack, which is basically a very large volume of low-quality evidence. But if you ask for... say, &amp;quot;what&#039;s the best case? What&#039;s the best case or set of cases for the hypothesis that we&#039;re being visited by alien spacecraft?&amp;quot;, the classic ones that often get pointed out, for example, are the crashed saucer at Roswell, which has been thoroughly debunked; that clearly was {{w|Project Mogul}}, which was a balloon reflector used to spy on Soviet nuclear weapons testing. There were pictures of the crashed debris; it was, you know, balsa wood, aluminum foil and tape&amp;amp;mdash;and Scotch tape. But the story has evolved over the years and over the decades into the current mythology that we have now. There are also other stories more recently like the {{w|Phoenix Lights|lights over Phoenix}}, which were shown to be flares dropped by Air Force jets, the UFO over Mexico City was like this classic flying saucer dangling from a string. The {{w|Billy Meier}} evidence is all really pathetic, low-quality, childish hoaxes. I mean, literally, saucers swinging pendulum-style from a string and it gets worse from there. There isn&#039;t a single case that has withstood careful investigation and scrutiny. It&#039;s all very low-quality. In addition to the ones where there is some video or physical evidence, there are numerous sightings, but the sightings are all either points of light or blobs of light which cannot be meaningfully characterized. Maybe the person making the observation doesn&#039;t know what they&#039;re looking at and therefore it&#039;s unidentified, but no one is observing things that look like spaceships. Frequently, astronomical objects are misinterpreted as unidentified flying objects; Venus is quite common. Interestingly enough, things even as simple as the moon are often mistaken for UFOs.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
P: There&#039;s no perception; when you look up into the sky and you see something, there&#039;s no way to tell how far something is, how close it is, how fast it&#039;s moving... how slowly it&#039;s moving... there&#039;s nothing; there&#039;s no...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
E: But the moon?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
P: &amp;amp;mdash;point of reference.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
E: I mean, really&amp;amp;mdash;I really... I know that people mistake for alien craft, but&amp;amp;mdash;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
B: And Venus.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
E: &amp;amp;mdash;how is that possible? Yeah, but even more so... &#039;&#039;the moon&#039;&#039;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
R: One of our listeners made a... One of our listeners made a really good point. He said that if you... you know, sometimes you&#039;re watching a nature documentary, and they say, &amp;quot;look at this insect and see how cleverly he disguises himself as a plant.&amp;quot; But when you&#039;re looking at it, you&#039;re saying, &amp;quot;no! it&#039;s a bug. I can see it&#039;s a bug.&amp;quot; But if you were to just walk past it in the woods, you would have no idea it&#039;s there. So it&#039;s difficult when we talk about it and say &amp;quot;yeah, someone mistook the moon for a UFO&amp;quot;&amp;amp;mdash;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
J: Yeah, because it&#039;s such a recognizeable object.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
E: It just seems like the least likely candidate to be mistaken as a UFO. The absolute least.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
R: &#039;&#039;(laughs)&#039;&#039; It does seem very odd. But that&#039;s the thing; it seems like that from our viewpoint, but when you&#039;re in the moment, and when you&#039;ve had a few to drink and you&#039;re out and you&#039;re with friends and you look up in the sky, and... &#039;&#039;(laughs)&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
P: Well, if you&#039;re going to factor alcohol into these sightings, sure.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
R: &#039;&#039;(laughs)&#039;&#039; Well, not necessarily. But I&#039;m saying that there are a lot of situations where a person will look in the sky and see the moon, and&amp;amp;mdash;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
P: You&#039;d probably have to drink a whole bottle of wine to mistake the moon for... for...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
R: &#039;&#039;(laughs)&#039;&#039; Don&#039;t start. Don&#039;t start. &#039;&#039;(chuckles)&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
J: Rebecca, honestly. Come on, Rebecca. I hope I&#039;m not insulting any listeners when I say this, but: what type of baboon confuses &#039;&#039;the moon&#039;&#039; for a spaceship?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
P: Take it easy on our monkey cousins.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
R: No. OK, well, no; I will tell you that just this evening, just this evening, I was riding my bike along the river. I&#039;m in Boston; I was riding along the Charles River, and the moon was behind some clouds, and it looked really amazing over the river. It did not look like the moon. The clouds had kind of diffused it and spread the light out to the point where it looked really eerie and weird, and&amp;amp;mdash;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
J: I reiterate: &#039;&#039;(chuckles)&#039;&#039; What kind of baboon could possibly misperceive the moon for a&amp;amp;mdash;&#039;&#039;do-do-do-do&#039;&#039;&amp;amp;mdash;flying UFO? No.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;(laughter)&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
R: Hey, sit on your high horse if that makes you feel better, but we&#039;ve all had times looked at something and mistook it for something else. That&#039;s all I&#039;m saying.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
B: Yeah, but also, Jay, the other point is that a lot of times, people don&#039;t realize that the moon appears to follow you as you&#039;re traveling along, and that might be like, &amp;quot;whoa, but it followed me wherever I went&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
R: Yeah, I mean, there are a lot of strange things with the moon, and also the way the moon looks really large sometimes, and sometimes&amp;amp;mdash;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
B: On the horizon.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
R: &amp;amp;mdash;it looks very small; there are a lot of optical illusions with the moon. You know, something that&#039;s so obvious in the sky can be very odd.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
P: You would have to be a drunken ass or a mo-ron to mistake the moon for an alien craft! End of story.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
R: All right.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
P: Thank you.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
S: You guys are missing the point. First of all, the moon can look even more bizarre if it&#039;s late at night and the horns of a crescent moon are pointing in the direction that&#039;s not what you&#039;re used to looking at. And if it&#039;s through a haze, it can look like just a weirdly shaped blob of light. And then they are leaping from a blob of light to &amp;quot;I don&#039;t know what that blob of light is; maybe it&#039;s a spaceship.&amp;quot; Right? Most of these things&amp;amp;mdash;it&#039;s a point of light or it&#039;s a blob of light and they can&#039;t identify what it is or they think it&#039;s moving strangely because of their poor perspective. And then they leap from that to &amp;quot;it must be an alien spaceship&amp;quot;. No one&#039;s actually seeing a detailed... you know, ship hovering that anybody seeing it would clearly identify the details as that of a spaceship. Right?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
E: I think you have to go out of your way to abandon common sense to look up and say something in the sky that is possibly the moon that I look at every night. It&#039;s a light and that could be an alien spaceship. You really have to, I think, work hard to try to draw that conclusion, frankly.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
R: I don&#039;t think it&#039;s as big a jump as you think. That&#039;s all.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
S: The basic fallacy that people are committing is just failing to obey {{w|Occam&#039;s Razor}} and making the argument from ignorance. &amp;quot;I can&#039;t explain what that blob of light is, therefore it&#039;s an extraterrestrial craft.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
B: Well, they want to believe it. They want to believe it so much, it&#039;s so easy to make the leap.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
P: Sure. The writer of the letter wants to believe.&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;blockquote&amp;gt;Hi all, love the show. I just found this site and thought I&#039;d pass it along as it is very funny. I hope you haven&#039;t seen it before. Keep up the good work.&amp;lt;/blockquote&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The website is Intelligent Forces; I&#039;ll have the [http://www.intelligent-forces.com link] on the Notes page, and it&#039;s basically a spoof on Intelligent Design. The theory that an intelligence in the universe actually attracts and holds all things together is just as viable. So it&#039;s really just&amp;amp;mdash;I mean, it takes&amp;amp;mdash;the site... you have to read it a little bit before you realize that it&#039;s a spoof. It&#039;s not... it pretends to be serious and legitimate, but... it is quite humorous. So take a look at it; I&#039;ll give you the link.&lt;br /&gt;

I&#039;m working my way backwards through your episodes but have not yet encountered the topic of &#039;chelation&#039;.&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;My grandparents, who I&#039;ve always regarded (and still do) as a couple of the most intelligent people I know, have been undergoing regular chelation treatments for the past few years.&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;When they first told me about it a couple years ago I thought it was a little strange but figured they knew what they were doing. I didn&#039;t give it any thought until I became a skeptic a couple weeks ago (which caused me to find your podcast, sorry if you confused the cause and effect for a sec).&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;Getting regular chemical transfusions doesn&#039;t sound too safe to me, should I talk to them about it? Is it safe? Is it helpful?&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;Keep up the great work!&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;Jonathan Abrams&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;Ottawa, Canada&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;P.S. I recommend that you mention Richard Dawkins&#039; great new book The God Delusion. It&#039;s really helped me to come to terms with my latent atheism, and it has completely changed my life (your podcast has helped with adjusting too (I don&#039;t know any atheists personally).&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;Good review article of chelation therapy: www.quackwatch.org/01QuackeryRelatedTopics/chelation.html&amp;lt;/blockquote&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

== Randi Speaks &amp;lt;small&amp;gt;(44:53)&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt; ==&lt;br /&gt;
* The Uncompromising Observations of a Veteran Skeptic&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;Each week James Randi gives a skeptical commentary in his own unique style.&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;This week&#039;s topic: Optical Illusions&amp;lt;br/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
JR: Hello. This is James Randi. I was just speaking with {{w|Jerry Andrus}}, the illusionist and our very, very good friend who will be at TAM 5, as I&#039;m sure you all know. Jerry turns out these absolutely remarkable&amp;amp;mdash;mind-boggling is the only way to describe them&amp;amp;mdash;optical illusions. I&#039;ve seen many a strong scientist in tears trying to figure out what&#039;s happening to his sensory input. All as a result of Jerry Andrus&#039; evil influence. Jerry reminded me of an episode that happened some years ago when he was sent over to Japan to prepare a special there on his optical illusions. Now as I&#039;ve mentioned before, magicians have peculiar expertise. It can be very, very limited, but it&#039;s very strong in the direction that it takes. We know two things with great certainty: A) how people can be fooled; B) how they fool themselves.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Well, on this particular episode, Jerry had a meeting with the producers and directors at his home in Oregon, and they agreed to the contract and such and everything was all well-done and well-organized and well on its way. But then when he actually got over there and into the studio, things took a different turn. Jerry ran into the dreaded lighting director. Now, a lot of magic tricks and certainly optical illusions depend very much on the lighting. This lighting director was well-trained and obviously knew what he was doing, but when it came to Jerry&#039;s effects, he was out of his depth. Some of the effects that Jerry had shown the folks back in Oregon were just not going to work unless they listened to him rather than the lighting director, who was intent on following the book rules: &amp;quot;this is the way you light a scene of this kind.&amp;quot; Well, Jerry just let him go right ahead, because he didn&#039;t seem to want to listen, and after all, he had a lot of autonomy there; he was an important man to the production of this television special. He wasn&#039;t one who was likely to take advice. One of the major illusions that I won&#039;t get into the details of what it was got all set up; it was all ready to go and they tried it on camera. It was a total fiasco. Jerry pointed out that the lighting had to be diffuse; it couldn&#039;t cast shadows or the effect wouldn&#039;t work. But the lighting director argued with him. &amp;quot;No, that&#039;s the way we light scenes in Japan.&amp;quot; Jerry, gentle soul that he is, didn&#039;t want to argue with the man, but he simply took it upon himself to put a diffusing screen in there, and lo and behold, the illusion worked perfectly. Now this didn&#039;t please the lighting director at all, because he&#039;d been one-upped, so to speak, and you don&#039;t do that with an Asian population.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
However, when I did my TV special in Seoul, Korea some years back, I encountered the producer, whose name was Nam, and I told him in so many words, based on Jerry Andrus&#039; experience&amp;amp;mdash;his bad experience with lighting directors, that I should be listened to and I had good opinions. I knew how these things worked or didn&#039;t work. Well, Nam not only listened, he got a lot of input from me and in some occasions, as when he went to Indonesia to film one of the fakers over there who was using some high-voltage equipment to produce miracles, Nam informed me that I couldn&#039;t be included in the crew because this fellow had specifically forbidden me to show up on the site. I talked to Nam at length and told him what he should do and how he should go about investigating the matter. And he listened. Oh, did he listen. When he came back to Seoul and they showed me the footage he&#039;d obtained, I threw my arms around him and gave him a big hug. He certainly deserved it. Nam had listened to what I&#039;d told him. He&#039;d done some innovation of his own, and he recognized that the &#039;&#039;way&#039;&#039; of thinking, not the thoughts but the way of thinking that I had taught him was the way to go about it. Here in America, one of the exceptions to the rule, the general rule of people having expertise that wouldn&#039;t quite work was the late {{w|Ernie Kovacs}}. I did a couple of shows with Ernie and in &#039;&#039;every&#039;&#039; case, he simply told everyone, &amp;quot;listen to this man; he knows how the thing works.&amp;quot; Well, they did listen; Ernie was happy; I was happy, and apparently the audience was happy too. At least we didn&#039;t get any complaints. So, expertise is in the eye of the beholder, so to speak. No, I don&#039;t have the Ph.D., but when it comes to my expertise, my subject of expertise, I do know what I&#039;m talking about. This is James Randi.&lt;br /&gt;
