Sticks, as a skeptic you should not let this go unanswered. I'd suggest a letter to the paper expressing your doubts, and proposing that she agree to be tested for the JREF Challenge.

Write to her as well. Explain this great opportunity to prove, once and for all, the scientific validity of astrology, put a stop to Randi's naysaying, and just incidentally put a million bucks in her pocket. If she can do half of what she says, it'll be a piece of cake. My psychic powers predict she'll respond with one or more of the following:
1. The million doesn't exist.
2. Randi uses his own psychic powers to send out "negative energy" and defeat the claimants.
3. She doesn't need the money, and besides it's contaminated with skeptical vibes.
