Totally agree, nothing is to silly or bizarre to be tested by scientific methods, the problem is once an established viewpoint is accepted scientists stop looking properly in other directions (due to their philosophy it cannot exist) and anyone who claims evidence otherwise is dismissed as a crank

I wonder how many of the physicists mentioned in this article would have a hard time imagining that psi-phenomena were worth considering... Anyway, it is strange that the notion of freaky brains are openly discussed, while modern psi experiments are left in the dark
True, David Deutsch, one of the leading many worlds theorists, thinks the telepathy is bunk ....
