Just wondering before I try sending an e-mail or making a phone call. I don't see him listed on the Staff page, but then being the A/V guy maybe he never was. There have been a number of staff changes lately so it's ahrd to tell who is and isn't.
He did a fantastic job cleaning up a noisy video of me interviewing Mr. Randi during the Galapagos cruise.

I don't think he was ever listed. He was at TAM 8, IIRC. As far as I know, he's still there. I don't know that he ever was a full time employee. He does other stuff.

Thanks Scrut. I'll go ahead and send him an email then.

Rich is gone. He may still be doing some volunteer work for Randi, but he's no longer an employee, as of a month or two ago.

Someone should maybe tell him it's over...

He wasn't at TAM 8, but he did do the live streaming for TAM 7, as well as the DVDs.

Ah Ha. That may explain why I've not heard back from him. Will try another avenue for my query. Delighted to hear from you, Linda. And hope you are enjoying retirement.

Linda · 4th October 2010, 09:53 PM

I am indeed. Next month we're off to Paris, and a cruise down the Dalmatian coast.
