(2) if a true psychic does appear in Randi's reality, he or she will not, in James Randi's reality, be perceived to be a true psychic.
Another way of saying it is that if a person proved to James Randi that psychics exist, then LoA couldn't be true, because he's specifically creating psychics to be fake.

In other words, the fact that he has not seen any proof IS the proof that LOA exists. It's hard to explain, but it makes sense to me.

It's kind of like God appearing in front of you and saying "God Doesn't Exist."
