Miguel, CSIcop know what they are doing .... it is the 'raising the bar' stunt
Ben Radford says '...Now, in terms of the best cases, part of the problem is that – and I get this all the time – people will say, “Here’s the best case. Look into this.” So, I look into it, or Joe Nickell or someone else will look into it, and we solve the case, and someone says, “Oh no, this is the best case over here.”
The skeptics asks fo the best case (just like he asked Alex) ... but it is a fallacy, there is no scientific law saying psi effect must be strong and perfectly accurate to be considered real .... in fact brain is a filter theory *expects* psi to be commonly weak.
I doubt anyone approaches CSIcop and says 'Here is the best case look into this' ... it a nonsense claim by Ben, they ask for it .... it would take years of research to find the 'best case'.
