Robert Wanrooy, Belgian Healer

[KRAMER]

This guy's claim came in today, mailed from Belgium, last week.
Talk about bad timing.
========================================

Dear Prof. Randi,
I already have written you 4-5 times but you never answered. Does the Million Dollar Challenge really exist? Because I'd be pleased to enter the paranormal challenge.
All I need is one signed picture from Christopher Reeve
(The Superman) and six months to make you able to see that "paranormal long distance healing" is really helping.
Would you give me an answer this time?

=========================================

What a shame.

Sperm????!!!!

I wrote to this applicant advising him of Christopher Reeve's death.

In reply, it seems that Mr. Wanrooey is tossing his claim out the window, along with his sanity.

You decide.

This "claim" arrived on a letterhead that reads MEDI-SPERM, in a huge package that included polaroids of his wall (covered with lots of other polaroids of what apear to be babies), and xeroxed copies of young couples holding infants. There is also a picture of himself holding a newborn child with the following caption:

"As proud as if I were the father".

I almost couldn't believe my eyes.

=============================================

Dear Mr. Kramer,
Yes, indeed I have also heard about the death of Christopher Reeve, unfortunately, but do not shame on me as 4 messages have been left to your foundation these last months on which I have never received any reply.
As you are undoubtedly aware, one of the serious problems in the world is the unwanted childlessness of parents as a consequence of the bad condition of men's sperm, and with my application I have made 85 married couples happy with their own little baby.
After years of experience I have found in Homeopathy an effective cure and it is very easy to prove:
-you take three or four men with bad sperm and you give them 3x4 little tablets daily during 4/5 weeks.
I am sending you some med-sperm tablets.
As far as I know I am the only one on the planet, millions of men have this problem, it is forbidden in Europe, only by doctors, who on their turn have roundabout and long programmes.
Have you a distributor or importer at yours to help your 16 millions of men facing this problem?

-Robert Wanrooey

=============================================

The man is out of his tiny little mind. What a megalomaniac !!!

I have summarily rejected this claim and advised him to seek psychiatric help.

 

[KRAMER]

Uh-Oh...

This just in from The Mad Sperm Professor...

==============================================

Dear Mr. JREF M. Kramer,

Your insolent and impolite letter of Nov. 10 is in my possession.

First of all I do not swallow these serious insults.

Our lawyer will check in Lauderdale via the American-Embassy/F.B.I., whether your foundation is not a false pretence.

Is the 1 million dollar an existing item? Are you uncorrect people? Further examination in your state will prove.

Yours Faithfully, ROBERT WANROEEY
...for and on behalf of the 17 million American men facing sperm-problems.

=============================================

Oy Vay.

Suffice to say that JREF will offer no response to threats.
