Perhaps we shouldn't expect sciences of the mind like psychology, parapsychology, etc. to produce the same endlessly replicable results as in the physical sciences like physics, chemistry etc. (Assuming these are, the experiments are seldom blind) Medicine is in trouble if we demand success in short trials.

only a repeatable experiment can establish Psi. I have an overall positive view of Psi but I won't be convinced until we have a phenomena that can be demonstrated on demand.
