Readers will recall that Randi issued a challenge to some audio
publishing/marketing folk to do a test in support of the claims that
various audio tweeks,ie. stones etc., can be heard. That was some weeks

piece in which some "views" are expressed about him and the challenge.
To recap, he offers a 1,000,000 US dallar prize to anyone who can, in this
case, demonstrate being able to hear such tweeks. Mr. Atkins, of
Stereophile, made a point in this group that Randi had not contacted his
publication and that the question of the "stones" etc. had been addressed
in previous issues. The current status of the question can be seen he

Maybe I am naieve, but if there was a million dollar prize out there
that I could grab, I would not be waiting around to be contacted about
it. Imagine, if somebody else got the prize first.

Art Dudley's response in the Nov Stereophile is childish in the
extreme. Apparently he can think of nothing to say beyond making fun
of the fact that Randi changed his name. I'm ashamed of Art for

Funny, there is no mention of Randi attempting to contact Stereophile in your
link.

The reference was to interaction in this group previously. A check on
googlegroups will find the discussion.
