EDIT 2: LOL Look for what? The obit of a high school dropout who did card tricks? Copperfield was better, but far from the best. Ahh the BBC - sorry, I get my heavily biased news elsewhere. I don't watch TV - American or British, and never Canadian. Who in their right mind would watch a news station that wasted time on the likes of James Randi? I really hit a nerve didn't I? I think I'm on to something. Maybe you volunteer for The Skeptical Inquirer and they give rookies the YA Horoscopes beat to prove themselves. That was Randi's rag, wasn't it? You guys wearing black arm bands to honor the old fraud? Will you keep fighting intelligent argument in his memory? RIP Jim. You didn't deserve any better.
EDIT:>>Kind of a paranoid attitude to have.<
How much should I pay? LOL I didn't say I would pay them. I said I would apply for the job. Do you pay them? LOL You might. They might do it for love of illiteracy. The point is, the idea that there is one Chain Lightning who has been around for years is flat out false. Therefore, there is a reason this is done and it isn't a pursuit of truth - not with all the ignorance and lies it takes to maintain a presence. So, Example two: learn reading comprehension. I know there are several of them because of writing style differences. A long time ago there was a good one. He could write, and he had a good attitude about his work. He wasn't nasty or even insulting. Most interestingly, when pushed hard enough, he finally admitted he didn't know anything about astrology. He also admitted, after it was shown to him, that he never heard of the Gauquelin evidence. At the time I was pretty new to a lot of things and I never engaged him the way I would now or should have done then. Too bad. He was likable.
Re: Randi RIP I follow the news (I love mundane astrology) I missed Randi's death (Oct 20, 2020. He was 92). International news LMAO!!! He was Canadian so it was noted both in the US and neighboring Canada. Well I guess that is international, but I doubt too many people in Peru noticed. He wasn't as important as you might think. Great stage magician, that was about it. He was a high school dropout, and it showed. He was a real knucklehead when it came to astrology, but stage magic was his forte. Unfortunately he also had a Houdini complex. Harry Houdini is the stage magician's hero and Harry went around exposing fraudulent spiritualists in his day. However, and they don't admit this, he ended up becoming one, sort of. He said he would contact spiritualists after he died. To date he hasn't although they try every Halloween. Randi tried to do the same thing, but he wasn't very good at it. Logic was not his strong suit, but like I said, he was a high school dropout. Maybe Chain will try to contact Randi.

[Did you post this, Chain?]
Which one? There are several of them dating back at least 10 years and whoever they are (I've long suspected a James Randi group) they also have several accounts. They use the same tired rants and same lies regardless of the question. The only difference is in writing style. That has really gone down hill over the past few years with the most recent version being barely literate and/or very young.
Randi, who by now is older than dirt, hates astrology and made a damn fool of himself over the years making all sorts of idiotic comments about astrology on TV. He even once said astrology was invented by Claudius Ptolemy, which is a real hoot.
The purpose is to get astrology off of YA and every other place they find it, which is fascistic to its core. Worrying about what others enjoy or do in a free society is childish, and trying to prevent it is subversive.
What they apparently do is have two or three using this name and are given a list of clichés to recite regardless of the question. That they make no sense at all doesn't bother them. When users could vote for, what was then called "Best Answer" the group voted for Chain and usually won. That is the reason for the buildup of his "score." Since that practice has stopped Ol' Chain gets very few and others are creeping up. There was one who passed him, but I suspect he bitched and got her kicked off and all her best answers went with her. Don't recall her screen name. After a few years, other writers take over. I wish I knew how to get in touch with them. I would apply for the job. At least the criticism would be intelligent.
