Once I read the reviews of "Dont Rest Your Head" I really loved the idea of mashing up the exaustion and madness rules with the EP psi rules.
In his new blog here:

Jack gives a good overview as how to do it. I will say the madness power seems to need a little more mechanics or some more suggestions of abilities.
I really like the idea of making Psi more dangerous to use, right now the rules for psi seems to make it a little too attractive to a few of my players who suffer from slight munchkinosis.
I loved the old "scanner movies" (even scanner cop!) and the idea of insane psions who might end up as insane bag lady psions never gets old to me, still I wouldent have a problem with a higher level of psi that allows tk, pyro tk ala fire starter, etc in exchange for a little more risk of death or madness.
all in all great idea and looking forward to parts II or III etc.
