RRS Radio stream will be sporadic over next few days

JIST OF THIS POST: EXPECT THE STICKAM ROOM TO BE DOWN OFTEN OVER THE NEXT FEW DAYS. WE MIGHT EVEN MISS OUR FRIDAY NIGHT BROADCAST.

DETAILS:
I have finally taken the plunge and spent quite a bit of money on enhancing the performance of the several computers we have here to run our show and everything else we do. As many of you know, I've had an issue since I started hosting our stickam stream 24/7 (or as close as I could come). I was unable to edit audio and host the stream at the same time. Because of this I have about 10 weeks of material on my desktop that isn't being touched because if I do so, I have to shut down the stream (or allow you to listen to my editing). Rooks computer (an ancient dog right now) in our office will soon double as the computer for the stream and my computer will be freed up for more editing. Both computers are getting major performance upgrades. I'll post the data I'm compiling from tests designed to show how well a computer is performing, when my enhancements are complete. I might even post a list of all the upgrades and let you nerds flame away. Sticking out tongue

Open letter to Michael Shermer in response to his letter...

Michael Shermer recently wrote an article for Sciam which covers the same issues he spoke about while on our show.

Here is the full original article:

These two blogs offer an opinion that I align myself with...

Totally cool atheist chick on the militant/appeasers...

Canada speaks up, Moore is right about Sicko... Canada Healthcare Better

Have you seen Michael Moores new movie SICKO? It's been the topic of conversation in our chat room this week. Kelly, Rook, and Sapient agree that our health care should be overhauled and that we should socialize more of it than we already do. Please visit us in the chatroom to discuss the issue. We recorded over 4 hours of material with Jake, and other assorted call in guests on the issue of universal health care for all Americans. The material will be available to subscribers in a newly created private forum for them soon. For those that dissent from the Michael Moore perspective in Sicko, take solace in the fact that our co-host "Yellow#5" (Mike) disagrees with us for the most part. We had a quite lively discussion and for the next week we will be focusing on issues related to Sicko.

Help us create the next big project...

Comment here instead of youtube, and upload a video to respond to ours if you can.

Rational Response Squad Academy begins!

The Rational Response Squad has officially started its leap into a new frontier: The Rational Response Squad Academy.

A project the RRS heads have been working on for a long time, the idea is to have free classes given by experts in all sorts of fields. From physics, biology and chemistry, to history and bible courses, even psychology and logic classes. These courses are designed to be on college level. For the time being all of these courses will be free of charge, and open to everyone. We are able to spend this time giving back as a result of your financial assistance. If you are able to subscribe, please do so. If we get overcrowded classes, we may need to limit it to only subscribers. Classes will be held in a stickam.com video room.

ATTN New Theist Members

Would you like an opportunity to challenge the RRS on our radio show? If so, drop us a line in this thread and let us know who you are and why you would like to speak to us. Because of our show format, please let us know what issues you would like to address and we will get back to you with scheduling and any other relevent information. We would like civil conversation, but be prepared to get back whatever you put into the conversation.

 We are open to almost any format other than "formal debate."  If you want to ask us personal questions, or evolution questions, or you want us to have a back and forth exchange challenging each other, or some alternative proposition, just let us know.  You must be prepared to accept a phone call from Brian, Rook, and Kelly within the next two weeks.  Our schedules are very open from 1pm est-3am est.  We will not give out your number or personal information and will prefer to refer to you as your name on our forum (if you agree).  The proposed conversation would last 5-45 minutes depending on how well the conversation is going.  We make no promises that we'll be able to air your phone call with us.  We do however promise not to edit the show in such a way as to change the meaning or context of anything you say in our conversation.
