One Million Dollar Reward - Really!

OK- I'm not kidding. Sure, you can make $25 million finding Osama Bin Laden, but let's face it: he's pretty well hidden and even if you did find him, exposing him for the reward might be a little...risky. And after taxes...

Now here's a way to make a cool million, with no risks greater than the charity telemarketers getting ahold of your phone number.

All you need is a little talent. Can you move objects with your thoughts (telekinesis), remote view, read minds, predict the future, talk to the dead? If you can do anything like this and prove it, then accept the James Randi Educational Foundation One Million Dollar Paranormal Challenge (http://www.randi.org/research/index.html). It's fun to believe and a true scientist is willing to study a phenomenon to see if it can stand up to objective scrutiny; yet, to date, despite all of the claims out there, no one has won the money. If you can demonstrate some kind of supernatural ability and you win the million dollars, how about throwing 10% my way as a finder's fee. Wait...I'm having a premonition: I don't think that I will ever see that fee!
