It claims to be "research" that is "utilizing 'the scientific method'." (About the Foundation*-*James Randi Educational Foundation)

That's not where the problem lies! The problem is that a lot of skeptics have the attitude that unless somebody wins the challenge, all scientific evidence of psi is useless!
