  2. Even CSICOPs Sometimes Wonder At the time of writing there are three claims in the ESP field which, in my opinion, deserve serious study: (1) that by thought alone humans can (barely) affect random number generators in computers; (2) that people under mild sensory deprivation can receive thoughts or images "projected" at them; and (3) that young children sometimes report the details of a previous life, which upon checking turn out to be accurate and which they could not have known about in any other way than reincarnation. I pick these claims not because I think they're likely to be valid (I don't), but as examples of contentions which might be true. The last three have at least some, although still dubious, experimental support, Of course, I could be wrong. -- Carl Sagan. The Demon-Haunted World: Science as a Candle in the Dark, p. 302.

  3. The Crazy Concept Could it be possible that human consciousness or intent could, in some weird way, influence the output of hardware random event generators based on quantum mechanical processes such as radioactive decay and tunnelling? Beats me! Let’s go and find out!

  4. A Parapsychology SuperCollider Status to date: 40 active sites in Europe, North and South America, India, Asia, Africa, Australia, New Zealand, and the South Pacific; adding about 1 site per month. Performing 11.5 million random event measurements per day; this dwarfs all  experiments combined prior to project inception. Collected raw data are available in near real time; anybody can download and perform their own analysis or verify that done by Project members.

  5. A Global Network Client programs for Linux (Intel or PPC), Solaris, IRIX, etc., Windows NT/2000. Source code available for porting. Persistent Internet connection or dial-up supported. Central server at Princeton.edu; other servers can be added which mirror the data set.

  6. Overall Results So Far Results for official, published in advance predictions to date: p = 0.0000090 (N = 70) High-expectation events (so published in advance): p = 0.0000025 (N = 27)

  22. The RetroPsychoKinesis ProjectStatus to Date http://www.fourmilab.ch/rpkp/

  23. The RetroPsychoKinesis ProjectOverview • Web/Java-based Schmidt-like retrocausal PK experiments • Pre-recorded data generated by HotBits radioactive random sequence generator • Anybody with Web access can run practice or for-the- record experiments: 7293 participants to date • Three different Java visual feedback programs • Results permanently logged: participants can view their own results and a summary of results of others • Complete data transparency: investigators can retrieve results in raw form for their own analyses http://www.fourmilab.ch/rpkp/

  24. The RetroPsychoKinesis ProjectResults Summary Experiments opened to public January 1997. Project statistics (as of 2001-04-11): Experiments to date: 87,361, z = 0.7073, p = 0.240 Unobserved control runs: 28,596, z = 0.4265, p = 0.335 Best Scoring Subjects ( 1000 runs) Experiments zp 1003 2.11 0.017 1648 1.45 0.073 6241 1.27 0.103 Complete statistics available on the Web, updated daily. http://www.fourmilab.ch/rpkp/
