Chris,

The add-on to the experiment you are suggesting has already been done by Dr. Gary Scwartz. It's nothing new, and in my opinion, nothing relevant.

Though my experiment may contain some entertainment value, it is truly intended as a "skeptic-proof" public experiment. Get it.

I doubt you have produced many events, designed focus groups or been involved with any experiential marketing, but I have. It takes a lot to get people to volunteer.

My experiment was designed to be portable, spontaneous, and yes, entertaining. It would be a miracle to show up randomly in a public space, convince 40 people to be read by two mediums for 10 minutes each, and then wait for the results. Remember, the people chosen from the streets have other things going on.

I have already designed another experiment that is intended for researchers in a lab environment, but the i2i experiment is not it.
