Since they cancelled Penn Jillette’s awesome radio show, I’ve been suffering from skeptic withdrawal. So I’ve returned to an old standby: James Randi.

He’s given up the idea of taking all comers for his million dollar challenge to focus on big-name psychics and pseudoscientists.  One of his current targets is Slyvia Browne, the beclawed uber-psychic who told Shawn Hornbeck’s folks that their son was dead. 

Here, Randi notes that Sylvia really missed with another vision:

It would be difficult to find another equally bad example of a divination. Everything about it was wrong. Browne brought grief and pain to Lynda’s family, leading them to expect a good outcome to their problem.  But what totally damns Browne’s pretensions to psychic power is the fact that David Repasky, the murderer of Lynda McClelland, the mother of these children, was sitting there in the audience right in front of Browne when she came up with this callous declaration on the Montel Williams Show, Browne didn’t even know – or “sense” – that fact!

Shoulda seen that comi…on never mind.
