No, it does not.

I try, but you don't seem to listen.

It is perfectly possible to create a mutually agreed protocol to test
your psychic powers without a single mention of lotto numbers.

What do you mean - "without criteria"? A question is a question. A
psychic should be able to give answers to questions, not suggest
questions that might have been asked.

I keep demanding knowledge that can be verified. That is how
scientific investigation works. It asks questions and looks for
answers.

Then you haven't seen many psychics. Nobody has asked anyone to answer
"every single possible question", just some questions with non-obvious
answers where the accuracy of the answers can be checked. What you
propose cannot be falsified, therefore it cannot be tested.

As my "ideal test" is nothing like that I can't really shift it away.

I would have thought that someone with a name like Cooper would look

Surely a computerised fucking machine like you can find alternative

Is this "Eve" aware of your obsession and stalking? And surely, as a
female, she would be a baroness.
