The problem is that dowsers, psychic detectives and remote viewers can't actually do what they say they can do.

Despite Hogan's absolute conviction in his own abilities he can't tell me what book is on the far right of the top shelf of my bookshelf.

Hogan is a classic example of the vast discrepancy between the strength of people's belief in "psi" and the objective evidence to support it.
