All of this is demonstrably Bullshit.
It is curious that you have Randi in the list - it his he more than
most that has shown all this stuff to be a collection of conjuring
tricks and weak minded nonsense. The best person I have seen to
demonstrate "mentalism" is Derren Brown. He can read minds, levitate
tables walk on glass, make impossible predictions - the whole bang-
shoot, though he says NONE of it has the slightest thing to do with
ESP - its just great psychology; no magic, just illusion.
There is however a serious and tragic need to believe and even HIS
audiences go away thinking they have seen magic.
