Letter from journalist Garry Bushell to Michael Roll

This letter was written after James Randi's PSYCHIC INVESTIGATOR series was broadcast on television in the UK.

In his letter, Garry Bushell writes:

"I don't pretend to know anything about sub-atomic physics, but I am intrigued by your arguments & believe you should be allowed to state your case publically, even if it is then knocked down."

On August 8, Garry Bushell had published an article in The Sun. In this article, Mr Bushell writes:

"None of it was remotely as interesting as the subjects Randi hasn't tackled yet - like crystal ball merchants or tarot card readers. Or more tellingly those scientists who claim there is a rational case for belief in life after death. Why have their arguments been kept off TV? I hear that comments from astro-physicist Sam Nicholls were cut from the show on mediums. Why?"
