Various tests I've proposed to people claiming superpowers over the years:
1. Dowsers: I've buried a bottle of water somewhere in my garden. Find it.
2. Astral projectors: Tell me the title of the book on my night table.
3. Psychic mediums: What did my maternal grandfather do for a living and/or how did he die?
4. Prophecy: Where am I going tomorrow and what is the purpose of my going there?
In every case, no one even agreed to the tests, even though each one was within the scope of what the respondents claimed they could do. All I ever got were variations of, 'That's not how it works' or 'Your energy is too negative for me to be able to give you the answer.'
Sounds an awful lot like, 'I'm a fraud.'
