One of the most annoying parts of the “world of woo” is people who claim to have psychic powers. Although none has ever actually shown evidence of this ability under strict observation, it’s a multi-million dollar business, with some in the field becoming quite prominent. Chip Coffey may not be one of the biggest players, but he’s had his 15 minutes of fame with A&E’s “Psychic Kids” program and a few other television appearances.
