View Full Version : Critical Thinker Wrist Band

This may not be the appropriate place to ask this question, but since I recieved the wrist band at TAM4, I couldn't think of a better place to post it.
You see, I had been wearing my "Critical Thinker" wrist band everyday since TAM4 and finally, a few days ago, it tragically broke. :( So after much wailng and beating my chest in agony, I calmed down and now I ask, where would I be able to get another one? Should I e-mail the JREF itself or just ask around the forum?
Any suggestions would be appreciated.

SPQR,
Check with JREF. They might have some extra ones. LInda should be back from her vacation Monday, and will probably be swamped with work, so you may want to wait until Thursday or Friday before emailing her. Otherwise it might be lost in the avalanche that's waiting for her.

There are critical thinker wrist bands? And no one told me?

LibraryLady,
Sorry, they were given out by JREF at TAM and I'm surprised no one posted anything about them here.

You can buy them in the JREF shop, or at least you could last time I looked.
Of course, I didn't get one at TAM, nor a t-shirt. Isn't that tragic? :(

You mean there's people who actually wear those? Who knew?

Are they magnetic?

I don't. There isn't enough room for that and my Q-Ray bracelet. And I need the latter to control my arthritis pain.

Are they magnetic?No, they're like the Lance Armstrong wristbands. They don't cure pain. If you stretch it and let it snap, it will cause a small amount of pain. :)

You still can. (http://www.randi.org/shopping/index.html) I bought a couple extra to give to friends and cow-orkers.

Thanks, xenxabar. :D
I haven't had a chance to cruise the forum in a while, what with me moving into college and everything.

Somebody should report Randi to Randi. If the JREF has wristbands that make you think critically, they should be eligible for the $1000000 prize.

Well I wore me Critical Thinker wrist band during the time I spent on the Amazing Cruise.
And I can tell y'all that it doesn't work as a anti-falling charm. And it does bugger all against fractures.
But then again it asn't supposed to do any of that ;)

SPQR, I've got one you can have.
If you feel comfortable with it, shoot a PM to me with a mailing address and I'd be happy to send it out to you.

Not as much as you might think. I found the collar of the t-shirt to be much too tight, and never wear mine. Not sure if anyone else had that problem, though.

I think that's just because you are such a thicknecked ruffian ex-wrestler.
...no wait, I was thinking of Tkingdoll. Man that girl can do a triple half gainer off the post and bodyslam better than anyone else I have seen.
Actually I found the same problem with the neck. I just grabbed hold and stretched that sucker out, then ran it through the dryer a few times.
Of course, now it's too big...

Washing (http://forums.randi.org/showthread.php?t=51943) and drying the TAM4 shirt is a risk though ...

Speaking of official JREF shirts, has anyone acquired any of the other shirts available from the store? If so how do the sizes measure up with other shirts of the same size (bigger, smaller, about the same)?

I just compared one of JREF's "question" t-shirts to a Hanes t-shirt, "L" vs. "Large", and they match. I'd assume the rest of the sizes match too.
