Random quote of the day:
“If the research indicates some small psi effect today, and rockets take off according to the laws of Newtonian physics today, if we simply admit this telepathy research into the cannon—won’t a rocket still take off tomorrow?….We won’t necessarily have to rewrite the laws of physics, but more likely amend them. Isn’t this usual skeptical argument, that acknowledging telepathy will force us to rewrite the laws of physics, simply a kind of reverse superstition? A kind of hysteria?”
