Sometimes you own the libs. Sometimes, the libs own you.


Not that it's really possible to 'debunk' such a broad negative, but this is as good a try as you'll see. One of my favourite Derren Brown experiments: he gets a group of students together and produces detailed psychic readings/personality descriptions for each, based on their birthdate, a single personal effect and a drawn outline of their hand. See for yourself the results, and the twist at the end.

Start it at 14:56.

Agreed, I don't think psychic powers exist. The paranormal exists entirely on the basis of coincidence.

When it's not a scam, anyway.

You can't view it?

It's not personal. It's just war.
