No we are not - we simply want the normal process of science to swing into action and explore some of these observations to exhaustion!
I don't want to believe in anything if it is not true - hell, that is why I stopped being a Christian while I was an undergraduate - but I hate the way in which an attitude of perpetual scepticism substitutes for more (and slightly better funded) experiments.
BTW, I am just reading "The Mind and the Brain - Neuroplasticity and the power of mental force" by Jeffrey M Schwartz and Sharon Begley. They are strong supporters of Stapp's ideas, and relate them to various ways of treating OCD and similar disorders.
It is interesting to read how sceptically the idea of neuroplasticity was treated - for many, many years. One postgraduate student had his PhD delayed for some time out of spite because he had uncovered evidence for neuroplasticity. The whole saga is incredibly reminiscent of the fight over Ψ.
