Just get James Randi to test her. I just finished reading Flim Flam (I know...a little late, but I'm only 19 years old, its a good thing that us younglins are even interested in such great topics), I especially liked his little bit about testing yet another wacko who thought she had x-ray vision. Seriously, have Randi offer her his million dollar challenge. Publicly. Man. Just get James Randi to test her.

Getting deluged with comments usually means that someone has submitted your article to one of the social networking tools out there or you have hit a topic of the week. I wouldn't take it personally. After all, that's why Blog Carnivals were created, in order to encourage reading of other people's work and bouncing ideas off each other. Even vocal supporters of Natalya are probably still barreling along on the same old forum board threads and high-ranking posts on Google. If they're not already producing their own podcasts or just drifted onto assuming that she's 'real' and now supporting some other venture that proves paranormal practices.

I'm surprised myself that you haven't been deluged with comments: Natalya Demkina has some very vocal supporters, and (for some reason) her case has become one of the favorite rallying points for critics of CSICOP (now CSI). A weighty and fascinating post.
