United States District Court District of Minnesota
CASE 0:07-cv-01296-JRT-FLN Document 1 Filed 02/23/07 Page 1 of 4 United States District Court District of Minnesota Christopher Roller (Plaintiff) vs. The James Randi Educational Civil Action No. Foundation, Inc. (JREF) c/o Magician James Randi (Defendant) Complaint I'm thoroughly confused about James Randi. James educates people. I would like James to educate me. James is a magician. The "Amazing Randi". I truly believe Randi is amazing. I believe James Randi has godly powers. I could be wrong. I've been wrong before, but I had a hunch about David Copperfield, and it turned out I was right. Now James doesn't perform many magic shows anymore, but I think he's making money via products made from godly powers. Again, I could be wrong. You see, I now have a patent on godly powers - Pat#20070035812. http://www. objectforce.com/php/MyTrumanShow__/Legal/Patent/Patent.html. The patent gives me exclusive right to the ethical use and financial gain in the use of godly powers on planet Earth. I believe James has been infringing on that patent effective 29July2005 in accordance with U.S.C 35 § 271. Not just for financial gain, but also because I believe he has knowledge of immoral behavior through the use of godly powers. CASE 0:07-cv-01296-JRT-FLN Document 1 Filed 02/23/07 Page 2 of 4 Again I could be wrong. If I'm wrong I will drop the suit immediately. But it's seems like a stubborn game played by lawyers to dismiss the case before I get a chance to ask any questions. -

IN that this article touches upon debatable points and, in some parts, traverses the borderland between science and, metaphysics, the arguments may not be acceptable to all readers. No apology is offered for its submission. It is put forward in no controversial spirit, but, rather, planned to stimulate thought upon subjects which we, as members of "a scientific corps, are bound. to think about and not infrequently to express an opinion. A few weeks ago I was staying in the family of one of our officers. They had a child with whom I was soon on confidential terms. The main outcome of that intimacy was that I was made to read constantly aloud from the child's favourite book. That book was called" The Chance World," a book I had not seen since I myself Protected by copyright. was a child and had long since forgot ton. It described a world in which everything happened by chance. The sun might rise or it might not: it might appear at any hour or the moon might rise in its stead. Even the children might be born with one head or half a dozen, and those heads might or might not be on their shoulders but arranged in all sorts of queer situations. If a person jumped up in the air there was no certainty as to whether he would come down again. -

The Holzer Files,’ Returns with More Harrowing Tales from the Archives of America’S First Ghost Hunter
For Immediate Release: HIT TRAVEL CHANNEL SERIES, ‘THE HOLZER FILES,’ RETURNS WITH MORE HARROWING TALES FROM THE ARCHIVES OF AMERICA’S FIRST GHOST HUNTER Season Two Premieres on Thursday, October 29 at 11 p.m. ET/PT with a Special Halloween Week Launch Left to Right: Psychic medium Cindy Kaza, paranormal investigator Dave Schrader and equipment technician Shane Pittman NEW YORK (October 6, 2020) – After a groundbreaking freshman run, “The Holzer Files” returns with all-new investigations into Hans Holzer’s paranormal mysteries, launching with a special Halloween week premiere on Thursday, October 29 at 11 p.m. ET/PT. A dedicated paranormal team – led by paranormal investigator Dave Schrader, psychic medium Cindy Kaza and equipment technician Shane Pittman – revisits Hans Holzer’s most captivating cases. With the help of Holzer’s daughter, Alexandra Holzer, and researcher Gabe Roth, the team picks up where Holzer left off to re-examine the terrifying hauntings that he dedicated his life to researching. “The Holzer Files” is a cryptic mystery, bound by threads of truth, the voices of the past and the exploration of modern paranormal pioneers. Viewers will experience a chilling chase, fueled by Holzer’s rediscovered archival files and haunting cinematography. The second season, comprised of 13 brand new one-hour episodes, follows the team on the haunted trail of legendary cases – from an elegant mansion in New York City, home to one of the world’s most infamous hauntings to the historic Maryland tavern that hid John Wilkes Booth after he shot Abraham Lincoln. Recognized as the “father of the paranormal,” Hans Holzer’s legendary four-decade exploration into disturbing hauntings like the Amityville Horror house, helped spawn legions of supernatural enthusiasts, more than 120 books and even inspired Dan Aykroyd and Harold Ramis to write “Ghostbusters.” In each episode, the team culls through thousands of Holzer’s recently discovered documents, letters, photographs and chilling audio and visual recordings dating back to the 1950s.
