or, “Why Isn’t There A Science of X?”or, “Alchemy is to Chemistry as Astrology is to…?”“If people don’t believe us after all the results we’ve produced, then they never will.”“It’s time for a new era, for someone to figure out what the implications of our results are for human culture, for future study, and — if the findings are correct — what they say about our basic scientific attitude.”– Robert G. Jahn“We have been very open with our data.
