I remember him. He used to make appearances on the old tv show "That's Incredible." I don't remember his name either, but I do remember when Randi debunked him on national television. As I recall he poured styrofoam packing peanuts all around the telephone book to verify that the guy wasn't blowing the pages. Needless to say, the fraud then claimed that the pieces produced too much "static interference" for his telekinesis to work.

Daniel's right; it was James Hydrick. He ended up in jail. I can't recall why, but fraud would be my guess (he started a school to teach people to develop their psychic/telekinetic powers).

Oh but Randi has.
(NotMe) Next week should be great fun. I will post a topic on it. But not yet I am currently awaiting a reply from Uri on Randi's actions. Well you guys have a good night I gotta go grill dinner and maybe I will sleep tonight. It's been three nights and has alomst become painfull. Strange how being tired can become such a painfull longing. Good night Jack H.O.A_X |
