On Tuesday, Sept 22, Penn and Teller will be guests on "Psychic Detectives" show on cable channel Court TV.

I just recieved the email from the webmaster at www.pennandteller.com

Hopefully, they actually get enough time to debunk the crap.
 
Yea, I actually meant to say Wednesday, not Tuesday. Maybe the psychics are interfering with my mind to make me type the wrong things.
 
Yes. Most likely that will be the case. Although Teller has spoken on "Bullsh*t!" just not on camera.
 
Do you know the time? There are a few "Psychic Detectives" listed and I want to set my PVR to record this.
 
ok...I TiVod all the Psychic Detectives last night. Didn't see Penn and Teller (fortunately I was able to fast forward through each episode in 3 or 4 minutes...were they cut out? wrong day?
 
I hope they take on some of the straight-up assertions made in relation to what I watched last night (about 15 minutes before the nausea set in). I was dumbfounded. The credulity of the narration is absolute. The statements declaring the validity and certainty of psychic contributions to police work are absolute. There isn't the slightest provisionalism or any counterbalance to the claims of psychics being the primary causal factor in nailing a bad guy the police would have otherwise missed....

Penn, Teller.....HELP!
 
I missed the show last night. Has this Noreen chick been on Psychic Detectives?

At the behest of Jackie Peterson, Scott's mother, Renier conducted two remote viewing sessions using articles of clothing that belonged to the pregnant woman.

Think of all the skeptical fun that could have been had at this NYC mall. Too bad I live on the opposite coast.
 
I'm very disappointed that P&T were not on Psych Out. It would have been the perfect ending to that horrible show.

Gotta say, though, it was hilalrious so see Renier and Baron completely disagree on the Scott Peterson case.
Renier is convinced he's guilty, Baron says he's innocent.

But they are both right!!!
 
I'm pissed, My freaking junk mail filter filtered out the email from Court TV. I kept waiting for them to send me my password.

(clarification: Me = pissed = angry NOT me = pissed = drunk = british)
 
damn it, now I can't get on the site at all!!!
whenever I try to reply to a post it says I'm either not logged in / don't have the athority to post / or don't have an activated account. I don't have an activated account because my junk mail filter eliminated the message from them I needed to rely to. I can't start a new account because the web site keeps saying I'm already a member. It only gives me the option of updating the profile on the account I can't access.

Perhaps this is all because under my Intrests catagory I wrote skeptic

P.S. is "It's Chewy" one of the Jref? If so I think he's taking it a little too far,
Hey Renata, ever heard of Weight Watchers?
You are FAT!

Any chance of converting that to a PC format?

thanks, but I just managed to get on. I found the original letter buried among all the other crap my junk mail filter had taken out. I hadn't seen it the first time I looked and thought it had been deleted. If I waited another day it would have been

You had the same reaction I did. Just horrible, ignorant stuff.

This poor woman had lost her teenage son in a car accident. She didn't want to believe that an accident could have killer her child so she asked Carla Baron to look into it. Baron says that two teenage boys were responsible. Of course, the mother eats this up. Nancy Grace couldn't belive how amazing this was.

Of course, there have been no arrests, no additional evidence, no names mentioned, just "reports" of "alleged" confessions of two teenage boys that they were involved. They say that the police have "reopened" the investigation. Of course, that could be for any number of reasons, including covering their butts.

Horrible.
 
Is it me, or are the believers at CTV staying away from their psychic board? I guess they are afraid to have their beliefs challenged.
