ARTICLES:
I have published over 200 articles in professional journals on perception, pattern
recognition, creativity, problem-solving and critiques of the paranormal.
I consider all my
publications as dealing with aspects of my major interest in human error and deception.
I
have also published articles in magic journals and have won awards for inventing new
conjuring effects.
Public Talks and Media Presentations
During this period I have given talks to public schools, civic groups, and other
organizations.
I also have appeared on several television and radio programs.
I serve as a
resource to the media on various topics related to the paranormal, deception, mysticism, the
occult, and human error.
In this connection
I have appeared on all the major networks, on
Cable Network News, the Larry King Live show, Italian Television, Canadian Television,
BBC television, and Nova.
I see these appearances as part of my program to help educate the
public about how human cognition both enables us to cope with problems and makes us
susceptible to illusion and deception.
Mv experience and Credentials Relevant to Alleged Psychic Phenomena
Since 1953, 1 have been called upon by various governmental agencies to investigate
or evaluate paranormal claims.
Some examples would be the evaluation of a lady who
allegedly could read with her finger tips, the evaluation of the claim by a group of engineers
that they could teach psychics to gather information from photographs; the assessment of
parapsychological research by American and foreign investigators; and the observation of
metal bending and other alleged miracles by Uri Geller.
I have also served as consultant and
expert witness in court cases involving psychics or related paranormal claims.
I have

appeared on several radio and television programs in the United States, Great Britain, Canada
and Italy to comment upon paranormal claims and to demonstrate how alleged paranormal
phenomena can be duplicated by simple trickery and psychological manipulation.
I earned my way through college performing mentalism and reading palms.
I have
demonstrated psychic readings on several television and radio shows,
I have done research
and written articles on why people can falsely believe that their psychic readings were
accurate and depended upon occult information.
I have been invited to the Euroskeptics
conference in Ostende, Belgium to conduct a workshop on psychic readings at the end of
September, 1994.
