Pear Cable Freaks Out: Pear Cable Withdraws from James Randi's $1M Challenge
Gizmodo: "According to the James Randi foundation, Pear Cable's (chickens!) CEO Adam Blake (chicken!) has withdrawn his help to Michael Fremer, the Stereophile Magazine writer who accepted Randi's $1,000,000 challenge, and was ready to prove that he can blindly detect the difference between $7,250 Pear (chickens!) Anjou cables and their Monster Cable equivalent"
Who saw this one coming? The fact is that the guy didn't even submit a real application to Randi's Million Dollar Challenge.
ReplyDeleteAnd his justification for why the cables were better was absolute crap.
