From here on, Kil is out of this competition as a player, as he has instead agreed to help by suggesting names for the "faces". I have already received a huge list from him, for which am very grateful.
Kil was ahead of the pack up to now, but now the competition's wide open!
If you know this face, please post the name below.

I recuse myself, even though I didn't suggest this one.
Oh wait! I see Mooner already recused me.

Uncertainty may make you uncomfortable. Certainty makes you ridiculous.
Why not question something for a change?

| Yup, just for the fullest possible sense that there's no cheating, I figured you should get the boot right away. Especially as you are a notorious and infamous cheat, and are no longer permitted on the casino floor during TAM.
There will be several more that that I made before getting your suggestions, though a couple of those also appear in your large list. (And one of those, I clipped his face from a photo of you and him!) Best all around to put you out of our misery right away, Kil. |

Hint #1: This person may be best known for debunking a famous psychic. |

| Congratulations, Mab, it is indeed Robert S. Lancaster! Lancaster has long been a thorn in the side of mega-psychic and despicable con-artist, Silvia Browne, with his "Stop Sylvia Browne" Website.
In 2008, Lancaster suffered a serious stroke, requiring many months before he was even able to communicate. Per Wikipedia: On July 11, 2009, Lancaster received the first annual Citizen Skeptic Award from the James Randi Educational Foundation at The Amazing Meeting 7 in Las Vegas, Nevada for his work as a skeptic.[16] He had recovered sufficiently from his stroke to receive the award in person (see photo).

I'm going to add that Robert's first site was StopKaz.com. |

Thanks, 'Mooner!
When was your stroke, and what residual effects o you still experience?
Receiving that award was a surreal experience. I had just spent eleven months in various hospitals, nursing homes and physical rehab centers, speaking only to medical staff and occasional visitors. To go from that to giving a speech on stage before more than a thousnd people and being handed an award by James Randi himself (a long-time hero of mine) was indescribable. |
