We wish that TIME, in Leon Jaroff's article about the program [BEHAVIOR, March 5], had done the same for the magazine's readers. Jaroff's piece was a mix of erroneous observations and baseless theories. Your readers should know the following: No information is given to John Edward about the members of the audience with whom he talks.
