GRAY:
Let's look at the upside. We can all feel free to start expensive
astrology services. I, for one, will proceed as soon as my new cult,
designed to prey on impressionable, attractive, wealthy females gets
established.
After all, for every ten ignorant suckers, there's a scammer
ready to pounce.

"Let's look at the upside."

How about the upside that everyone and their mother on TV and in print
(the
main services anyway) as far as I have seen, seem to be as dumbfounded as
we
and are making fun of it! The fact is that CSICOP could never reach as
many
people as this is and will be able to reach more as a result! Just
possibly,
the astrologers have won this battle (in their own minds) but will lose
the
war in the mind of the public.
