There is a science teaching outlet named Edmund Scientific which is starting to go off the rails. Back in 2009, they started to sell all manner of goofy things: ghost detectors (which are actually just electromagnetic field meters) and even DVDs on remote viewing. And all...

I have a "kit" that tests if you have ESP or not. And Mr.Randi put it together! It comes with directions, and doesn't even hint at his true beliefs! I think it's really cool, as if you follow his directions you will find that there is nothing to it.
