The occasional telepathic flash I get from others always involves emotional impacts, not calm rational thoughts. But experiments to measure "telepathy" usually seem to involve things like Zener cards, those cards with five symbols on them like a circle, cross etc.
Has anyone ever done a controlled experiment involving feelings? For example, sender and receiver in different rooms. One "test" done for a few seconds starting every minute. Twenty tests in all in a series. The test consists of the sender feeling or not feeling something strongly, and the receiver has to either mark yes or no. The strong feeling might be produced by sticking a pin in the person's arm; or showing them a picture of something unpleasant; or whatever the experimenter can think of as long as it produces a genuine strong feeling and not the rational concept of a strong feeling but not one actually experienced. Twenty in a series might be too long, with the sender's dread of the next item overshadowing the results.
Might be interesting.

Never mind.
Hey Paul,
I couldn't play today but wanted to offer my views regarding yesterday's experiment.
I noticied that my attention became fixated on the "arithmetic "instead of what I should have been doing.Your statement that there would be 40 "feeling" cards caused my mind to uncontrollably seek an arithmetically acceptable outcome.I knew beforehand that there would be 40 cards of these 5 different"feelings."
Note how you're exceptional, TP, along with a very few others, and no-one else is willing to stick their neck out. Afraid of getting shown up maybe. I don't see the problem.
To tell ya the truth, Paul....I...got....um.....lost in your explanation of how to play...and I also haven't really had the time to concentrate and re-read the instructions right now until the time allotted that I previously posted, so....
And btw: I actually have the deck of ESP Cards, and I'd love to play this game using those...where I will have the card and be the 'Sender'.....so if anyone wants to do this, let me know and either tonight or tomorrow or even Friday evening, I am available to play!
OK. I added the instructions to the bottom of the page at www.paulsrabbit.com/telepathy.htm and I'll make up a Zener cards page you can use if you want.

Minute.
I've actually done that test before, it's pretty cool!
