Psychic Friends Network expansion

Wow! Could this be the same PFN that declared bankruptcy in the late 90#8242;s? The one Dionne Warwick was the TV spokesperson for? The joke at the time was that with all of those psychics, none of them predicted the trouble they were in.

The Skeptic Friends Network lifted their name, partly as a joke. The bankruptcy occurred a few months after we came into existence, which made us very happy. I’m a bit blown away that they are still around and apparently doing just fine.

Go figure.

Wikipedia says that Vivica A. Fox was (is?) going to be the next Dionne Warwick.

Hey! What's with SFN now throwing those numbers in when I post? It happens usually when I do a quote, but in the OP above it just did it. No quote.

#8242 is ascii code for «, or the double angle quotation mark used in some languages. I dunno how or why this would show up when you attempted to do an apostrophe.

Someone with Wikipedia edit rights should include in that article, that Psychic Friends Network was the inspiration for choice of naming Skeptic Friends Network. (With a link to... MERDE! We don't have a wiki-page?)
