Great going Max on setting the record straight about the late Marcello Truzzi, PH. d.
Marcello was a fence balance'r and not sitter as Randi claimed and talked about. I say this as Marcello was fair and balanced in his views of the paranormal. |

Absolutely agree Riley. But I think there was much more to the Truzzi/Randi friction.

I certainly feel that never meeting Truzzi while here in Florida was a huge missed opportunity. I'm learning much more about him every day. I'd like to thank everyone for pointing to someone who has been right before my eyes the whole time.

I only spoke to Marchello once, just to thank him for his support and encouragement when I was putting together my Geller bibliography. A genuine loss when he passed.

In my opinion Randi chose that time to bash Truzzi because 1. He had passed, and 2 that he was at the Magic Castle and did not expect Max to chime into Truzzi's defense as he was the host of the Randi lecture/.talk. The look in Randi's eyes when Max did it was priceless.. |

True, but I think it goes all the way back to Marcello's resignation from CSICOP where he was the orginal editor or it's publication, "The Zetetic." That came shortly after the sTarbaby incident.

OK Bob ... Who else am I missing? In order to avoid this problem again, who do you think I should meet and learn from in the Florida area? Many beers on the line!!!!
