Perfect examples of what I have mentioned Arioch. I agree that Things should make sense scientifically. We can agree on that.
However many scientific breakthroughs/inventions/tools are met with initial scepticism.

I would argue that this is supposed to be a parapsychology forum, and as such people should be able to discuss these things in attempts to notice commonalities, or even ponder at the how/why.
I enjoy poking fun at you troll types here because I can stay away from sciforums for months at a time, and whenever I log back in I am sure to see Crunchycat and more just waiting for someone to mention a new topic in parapsychology.
I have been involved in psychic research and I claim that what I have witnessed and seen defies logic. It is a continuing search for the logic behind unprobably high psychic hits that draws me to these forums.
It is a shame that we will get one observation followed by 10 woohoo trolls.

I would think that an open and intelligent mind would be better off (pretending even) that a situation in the thread was possible and then think of how it could be so. There are no "Bad ideas" in brainstorming, and I have rolled my eyes at some parapsychology threads also. I just don't comment on them if I cannot contribute.
I have seen telepathy work (and someone will highlight this and say "SHOW PROOF!"). It really is not that hard to do. I bet you can get your spouse to bring you a taco on the way home from work or whatever it is you would like.
The ONLY way telepathy has not been proven to exist is that we must still define it as probabilities. We must say "The global consciousness experiment now shows billion to one odds that people can influence machines"
If you were some type of sceptic, and you were say offering a million dollar reward for proof of something would you accept a billion to one that the odds of it happening were above chance as proof?
Yes! Many double blind psychic experiments have astronomically high rates above chance. There are also many frauds, spoonbenders, and snake oil salesmen out there so the science can get lost in the mix.
I operate a parapsychology website and am also a science fiction writer. I invented a method of retrieving ideas from our subconsciousness based upon numbers, shapes, and concepts hidden in subliminal pictures. You must choose between random shapes hidden with auto-stereogram, etc..
This is the perfect way to hide subliminal answers as long as you do not focus on them as you should if you were trying to see a dinosaur auto-stereogram.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autostereogram
This is the ONLY method ever invented to get ideas from the subconscious that is not reliant upon ideomotor reflexes. I took them out of the equation.
It is also the only method developed in the past few centuries to retrieve subconscious info. Other methods you may be familiar with quija boards, pendulums, automatic writing, scrying, etc.
I am not saying pendulums give us off worldly answers, but they can sometimes be used to know what our subconscious is thinking.
I actually feel sorry for people who have not witnessed what I have seen in my days. The whole prospect of life after death and the hope of such things becomes almost a certainty when facing some of the more plausible explanations for telepathy out there.
When I say plausible explanations I would like to narrow that and say I now seem to believe almost exactly what the medium Jane Roberts said when she channelled Seth. Whether she channelled Seth or not I do not care, but the writings and books make the most sense to me.
IF you are a believer in psychic phenom, then i highly recommend SETH.
Here is a teaser.

Anyways.. I believe telepathy is a science that has not been verifiable above billions to one chance, and as such is fair game to ridicule from the trolls. It is just wishful thinking that this forum could be the one place to discuss the science of it.
