Mind controls matter - telekenesis proven.

Post by Tab. » Wed Nov 26, 2003 12:46 am

tel·e·ki·ne·sis
n.
The movement of objects by scientifically inexplicable means, as by the exercise of an occult power.
And it's just been sitting there.. at Princeton

Not very mundane news, I'd imagine.

See, I'd been thinking about making this game before I got in the accident, and now I have time.



I take it you came to that conclusion after reading a short summary on some website that linked to the actual report.

Why? :| I've read the whole site and a few of the pdf papers. I've had the site bookmarked for awhile.

1. Oh, so you were reading through Princeton science journals and found this? Or was it through googling?
2. Operator bias
3. Barelly more consistent than chance (even if I flipped a coin 2,000,000 one couldn't expect heads 1,000,000)
4. Much of the expirementation is done in which the user has no understanding of the mechanics of the random generation. To actually have influence over the result, it would require influence over the desired mechanism, which would require understanding of how it works. Since the production is "random" and the result is desired then if anything, this would be better evidence for a multiverse system where time doesn't actually exist.

1. Can't honestly remember how I came upon the link, had it in favorites since the 7th.
2. eh?
3. If you read the papers, the machine's outputs were random until put under direct influence of the operators. That's not really the same as coin flipping and probabilities. Plus these are thousands and thousands of tests, the results would have evened out if the case were chance.
4. Not necessarily, say the mind was capable of exterting a force or alteration. Like breathing, except it's your mind, the air is a sea of ether, and your breath is some form of electricity.. or something like that. Breathing on a mini windmill will still mess up it's spin, even if you don't know that the propellers make it turn etc.

Yet you still don't know whether to breath in or out to get the desired result. I'm going with the multiverse and choice affecting the result that is seen, not the random processing.
