A Report on the 5th Annual Skeptics Trivia Extravaganza
Monday May 18 2009 witnessed the most competitive ASVTE yet, with a spread of only six points between the two teams that tied for first position and the two teams that tied for last position. For the Record, the winning team was Christopher Short’s ILLUMINATI in a tie breaker over DARK MATTER. (Where’s Tom Hanks when you need him?) However , it should be noted that an exit poll supported the view that the wrong team had won.
During the course of the evening, a Tarot deck was put to good use; we located Area 51 by a map-dowsing procedure; we determined The Best Psychic in the Room; and we evaluated an on-line Psychic Reading service and a Reiki Masters clinic. The organisers would like to acknowledge the invaluable assistance of Mr Darwin K. Bear.
