"Psychic" Sally Morgan Sues Critics for £150,000 After Refusing $1 Million to Prove Her Powers to James Randi Educational Foundation
I wonder why?

[murraymints]

mmmm...went to see her once..not impressed...

[pusskin]

Have you a link to this story Sinderella?

[Zhukov]

Don"t know how she has got away with it for so long...?

[jno]

what's she suing for, exactly?

[DTCwordfan]

She saw them coming...

[murraymints]

dt..or maybe not...but then who am I to cast aspersions..?

[sinderella]

I knew you were going to ask me that before you did!

What ever will be will be will be the futures not ours to see ect ect

[sinderella]

For printing an article suggesting that she and other self-proclaimed psychics might be using trickery rather than mystical powers when they appear to talk to the dead

[murraymints]

Have also seen Derek Acorah...sceptical but at least he had charm !!!

[chaptazbru]

Derren Brown who is an illusionist and a magician has proven time and time again how it's done.

[murraymints]

Although...away from these stage folks, have had a few inexplicable things happen to me....

[chaptazbru]

Actually murraymints so have I, but don't tell anyone !

[jno]

that's very risky: the Mail will put forward its evidence in court, and how's she going to answer it? This is pretty much what Oscar Wilde did, and see where it got him.

[Mrsspagnoli57]

Sally Morgan, Derren Brown, Uri Geller, Doris Stokes, David Copperfield.........con men/women of the world unite....

[Maydup]

^^ Entertainers that's all Mrs.

[Zhukov]

Don"t think you can accuse Derren Brown of being a con-man,Mrsspag..He is perfectly open and honest about what he does...But,yes the rest are Charlatans!

[ummmm]

Agree with Zhukov....Derren Brown is not a con. He doesn't 'pretend' to talk to dead people. He doesn't cash in on peoples desperate grief.

[Rodge2]

Has anyone ever gone to one of these people and been impressed?

[wizzard]

Yes Rodge2 I have. Saw a guy called Peter Crawford in a club in the Teesside area.

Told me a lot of things that I hadn't told to anyone else. Even stood on stage midway through the 'message', pointed straight at me (he'd already made a 'connection' by then) and gave my mother's name correctly. There were people in the audience who know me and came up to me afterwards (he spoke with me for 40 minutes) and said they wouldn't have believed it if it hadn't have been me he was talking to. I changed two pictures in the lounge and put pics of my mother and father's wedding in the frames. He told me I'd done it and that my mother didn't like the pictures. That there is an oval picture frame in front of my computer and she wants her pic in that. That I used to massage her feet - she had leg ulcers and it helped with the lymph drainage and healing.

He asked 'who used to feed the horses' - my dad did, but he died 17 years ago. We had a field next to the house with a couple of horses, he used to drop a bucket of water over the fence on a rope and feed them slices of bread.

Told me about the location of the house I live in - end terrace. Asked who had the black bedroom. Mine was the BACK bedroom but he emphasised BLACK the colour. Or a very dark colour. I'd painted the walls brown when I was a kid.

There was much more. Yes I believe in them. Take it with a pinch of salt, don't believe every word and keep a portion of scepticism, but some mediums are genuine.

I'm sceptical of these people and have an open mind if I attend a show. Even Stephen Holbrook has pulled things out that no one else would know.
