Every parapsychological "phenomenon" has been reproduced perfectly by
James (the Amazing) Randi who says what he does is pure trickery. Given
two explantions for seeming occult phenomena, one involving non-physical
causes and the other by a magicians tricks, which explanation would a
reasonable person prefer. Ocam's Razor wins again.

There is not a single "parapsychological" phemomenon that has been
empircally proven. Not one. People who believe in that stuff are either
fools or mystics.
