Smoke and Mirrors

The Spiritualist Group on Facebook posted an article about James Randi and the $1 million prize. If you're not familiar, he is a well-known skeptic/cynic (depending on your point of view) who offers a prize for those who can prove psychic phenomena to his satisfaction. According to the post, biologist Dr Rupert Sheldrake has demonstrated psychic abilities of dogs, and the video explains why he doesn't have the  prize. My view is that it probably has to do with Randi being a magician. Such people are good with smoke and mirrors. I so-detest fakes, liars, cynics, and those who are out to trick you, no matter which side of the "psychic phenomena is real" fence they happen to be on.
