According to a batshit scary woman who may or may not realize it but who is trying desperately to revive the absolutely horrible "facilitated communication" scam.

Scary stupid people can go to Hahvahd and get degrees, too.

From the article, it looks like they were almost all single-digit numbers. An observant kid could listen to the sound of the number being drawn and know what it was.

Sylvia Browne just KNEW that girl was dead, too. And John Edward and the Long Island Madam speak to your dead grandparents.

James Randi has a million bucks waiting for him if he's telepathic.

My prediction? He won't be getting a million bucks from James Randi.

No, because I bet when actual scientists look into it they discover that the mom is a con artist.

Why not just go straight to James Randi and collect $1MM if the telepathy part was legit?

Not yet, so we should give up?

Our brains are incredibly powerful. I do not doubt that we have limited understang of its capabilities.

Not to mention, the so called "expert" miscalculated the odds of getting 3 out of 5 correct. She said it was 1/729 when that would be the probability of 3 out of 3.

The true probability is > 1%, and that's assuming no cues that he could have picked up on, whether accidental or otherwise.

So you think our brains have Bluetooth or radio transceivers?

Only dumb people are willing to accept claims that rely upon magic to work, not that there aren't a lot of dumb people.
