I'm not sure why, but John Edward, the psychic featured on the SciFi channel's "Crossing Over with John Edward" is someone who I can't watch without experiencing intense feelings of disgust. So I was not surprised at all when his publicity people announced last week that Edward would attempt to contact the dead victims of the World Trade Center attack. In fact, I'm definitely not psychic, but back in September I told my wife that Edward would inevitably try to pull just such a stunt.

Less than 24 hours later, however, the show's distributors called off the planned show citing what it called "a reaction that none of us expected."

Huh? I thought this guy was supposed to be a psychic. You should have seen it coming, John.
