I just remembered to check how well the poster from The Amaz!ng Meeting 4 did on Ebay.
It sold for over $900! Not bad. It’s nice to know that money goes toward an organization dedicated– and I mean dedicated — to teaching people to think critically.
About Bad Astronomy
If you went to BadAstronomy.com and found yourself here, never fear: the BA Blog has moved to its new home at Discover Blogs. The original BA site (with the Moon Hoax debunking and all that) is still online, too.
Phil Plait, the creator of Bad Astronomy, is an astronomer, lecturer, and author. After ten years working on Hubble Space Telescope and six more working on astronomy education, he struck out on his own as a writer. He has written two books, dozens of magazine articles, and 12 bazillion blog articles. He is a skeptic, and fights misuses of science as well as praising the wonder of real science.

Before you go overboard for this guy (Randi), you might want to take a look at what a fellow astronomer and skeptic thought of Randi’s CSICOP organization and some of their tactics -

Phew, that link Dave listed re the Randi/KZA/Gardiner/Rawlins publishing affair, was some read. Gardiner I knew as a youngster reading Scientific American, and Randi for his world wide appearances debunking the paranormal. Though I could not understand why a popular local TV host threw him off his live show. This was probably 20 years ago. Never heard of the others, maybe just as well!

They should have also sold a limited number of prints for us skeptics that aren’t rolling in the money.
