First of all, this is what James Randi wrote regarding the Million Dollar Prize:
We reported to you that on Larry King Live recently, Sylvia Browne expressed her doubt about the existence and availability of the JREF million-dollar prize, and declared that she was avoiding the test because of that suspicion. We told you that in prompt response we'd sent her the documented, notarized, evidence to alleviate her fears. Now we're informed by the US Postal Service that our packet of documents, Certified Mail item #7003 0500 0002 3034 8133, which was accepted from us at the Fort Lauderdale post office at 11:23 a.m. on Monday, May 19th, 2003, was then delivered to Sylvia Browne from the post office in Campbell, California, at 12:08 p.m. on Thursday, May 22nd, and was refused by Sylvia that same day. It was returned to the JREF office on May 28th. An inquiry to the USPS informed us:
Your item was refused by the addressee at 12:12 pm on May 22, 2003 in CAMPBELL, CA 95008 and is being returned to the sender. Status is updated every evening. Please check again later.
Here's my proposal, folks. The company I work for goes to Campbell. A lot. Maybe Sylvia has this deep, abiding dread of people in Postal Service uniforms. (Just a guess. I'm not a shrink, or a psychic, so I don't know.) That's fine.
If I get scheduled to go to Campbell, how about if I let JREF know in advance. If possible, I'll drop the material right on their doorstep, AND GET A RECEIPT. As near as I can tell, it should only take a few moments out of my day, and we can have the whole thing cleared up for Ms. Browne, so she can take the challenge, and walk away with her million dollars. (Yeah, RIGHT!)
Of course, if she'd prefer, I know a good process server. We could do it that way, as well. Your call, Amazing One.
