   In hard times the weak minded will look to all kinds of mysticism.

   I should check out this online psychic thing. May even be more lucrative than playing poker with a bunch of college kids away from home for the first time, who think it's a game of chance...

   the idiot who use ANY kind of psychic deserves to be swindled out of every dime they have.

   Psychic baiting

   We had an electronics convention in the same hotel as a Psychic Convention one year, and a group of us went up to their registration desk and stood in line. When our turn came, the "psychic" asked us for our names. We replied with a name and "But you already know that, and you knew we were coming." Her search for the registration materials assigned to us was of course fruitless.
   Alas, she didn't get the joke.

   One thing I don't understand ...

   ... why do they need conventional communication channels like the Internet, phones, face-to-face visits and so on? I mean, they're psychics, right?
