[Amadeus]

Just watch her sometimes. She gives her self huge margins of error to bounce in and out of. Like the first video I posted about the fireman. The grieving wife said he was never found. Sylvia said that he is in a huge body of water. 70 percent of the Earth is covered by water, so the odds are in her favor. Then the lady says that it was during 911 Twin Towers. Then Sylvia says that they used water to put the fires out. I mean, how could you go wrong?
When people ask her what profession they should go into. Sylvia looks at their clothing, posture, etc. to make the guess. If they have tatoos she'll tell them to go into art. If it is an African American woman with glasses, she'll tell them to do something in social services (not my stereotype, hers).
When she talks about people's dead love ones she make obvious physical descriptions. If the audience member is short and chunky, Sylvia will tell that person that someone short with a round face is near by them. Well, no duh. Sylvia tells them that their passed away love one "loves them". Well no crap. That is simple genetics and common sense.

As far as Syliva's "wealth". She is not the most honest person. She was convicted in 1992 of taking money from a couple to use for her own Psychic business even though she told them that the money was going to operational cost of a gold mining business. She was convicted of fraud and grand larceny.

(On a side note, I guess to reply to Erin's assumption that I am "angry", honestly I would say that there may be a bit of anger. No, I'm not angry that she has money or is famous. What angers me is that she is praying upon people who have lost loved ones. Yes, sometimes these people seek Sylvia's help, but sometimes the Montel show calls them up and asked them on the show. If you had a loved one that was missing, would you go? I would. If there was a slim chance that she could be right. Then to tell a a family that their child, mother, or father is DEAD, when they actually might be alive is wrong. Then to tell someone that their daughter is sold into slavery in Japan when they are actually a corpse here in the US, is just plain wrong. Sylvia knows that she is not 100 percent accurate or even close, so why the heck does she state it as fact? No, grieving families don't have to take her to heart, but in my opinion it is just cruel and taking advantage for publicity sake....................................but she sells books and has lots of money, so that is all that matters.)
