Even CSICOPs Sometimes WonderAt the time of writing there are three claims in the ESP field which, in my opinion, deserve serious study: (1) that by thought alone humans can (barely) affect random number generators in computers; (2) that people under mild sensory deprivation can receive thoughts or images "projected" at them; and (3) that young children sometimes report the details of a previous life, which upon checking turn out to be accurate and which they could not have known about in any other way than reincarnation. I pick these claims not because I think they're likely to be valid (I don't), but as examples of contentions which might be true. The last three have at least some, although still dubious, experimental support, Of course, I could be wrong. -- Carl Sagan. The Demon-Haunted World:
Science as a Candle in the Dark, p. 302.

The Crazy Concept
Could it be possible that human consciousness or intent could, in some weird way, influence the output of hardware random event generators based on quantum mechanical processes such as radioactive decay and tunnelling?
Beats me! Let’s go and find out!

A Parapsychology SuperCollider
Status to date:40 active sites in Europe, North and South
America,India, Asia, Africa, Australia, New Zealand, andthe South Pacific; adding about 1 site per month.
Performing 11.5 million random eventmeasurements per day; this dwarfs all experiments combined prior to project inception.
Collected raw data are available in near real time;anybody can download and perform their ownanalysis or verify that done by Project members.

A Global Network
Client programs for Linux (Intel or PPC), Solaris, IRIX, etc., Windows NT/2000. Source code available for porting.
Persistent Internet connection or dial-up supported.
Central server at Princeton.edu; other servers can be added which mirror the data set.
