He undoubtably thinks you're all mad but it's up to you to prove
otherwise. He will organise an experiment and you have to agree that
it's within your powers before he will go ahead with it.
This is what is called "pre-biasing the audience." I suspect that the
very *definition* of Randi's supposed lack of integrity is the fact
that he thinks people who believe this shit are all mad.

According to what I've read in his book, /*Flim Flam*/, Randi probably
thinks you and Fred Lenz are more than "mad", you're bonkers and should
be certified as such. You did a good job of convincing Sally and Ajax
that you witnessed The Zen Master Rama levitate, but you can't fool The
Amazing Randi, even with his professional integrity. Go figure.
