1. Edwards claims to be able to speak to the dead.
2. There are several simple tests which could validate his ability beyond any shadow of doubt.
3. Edwards refuses to take these tests.
4. Edwards instead participates in studies of the blindingly obvious which tell us nothing about whether his abilities come from being able to speak with the dead.
5. This gives his apologists, such as yourself, the ability to claim Edwards has been in "studies" when in fact his real claim.. the fact he says he can talk to the dead.. has never been tested at all.
6. Thus, Edwards provides a way for his apologists to claim scientific validity while at the same time avoiding any real test of his ability to communicate directly with the deceased.

The only place I ever heard about his double-blind test was on the MSNBC special. I have never heard him go around talking about it. He doesn't tout it as an accomplishment or anything. I just happened to catch it.
