Project Camelot Interviews David Icke

he must have had something like a prefrontal lobe disruption, an effect of this is that you think you feel a presence of somebody/thing nearby.
but more striking is that it can end up making you see greater meanings in seemingly insignificant things, sometimes all the way to hallucinations.
many of the most bizarre religious leaders/speakers have had this too.

he appears quite normal otherwise, but some slight malfunction/hemorraging back in the late 1980s seems to have had this mild but lasting effect.
i'm wondering if alex jones has something similar, but then there's some obvious differences..

what's surprising though is that they're very articulate and seemingly intelligent in other ways
(similar to how some scientists might happen to believe some contradictory religious babble).
partitioning of the so-called mind, from reason and logic.

Reasonable explanations win 'every' time.
In an experiment such as this, if it was conducted perfectly, then it's tiny ques that our minds pick up on, even unconsciously.
40% is just the kind of stat you might expect from people trying to 'figure out' the answer, rather than just giving a random answer.

from the wiki on sheldrake :
'The non-randomness of test sequences could thus lead to implicit or explicit pattern learning when feedback is provided. When the patterns being guessed mirror naturally occurring guessing patterns. the results could go above or below chance levels even without feedback. Thus significant results could occur purely from non-random guessing.[30] Non-randomization is one of seven flaws in parapsychological research identified by Marks.'
(add confirmation bias and experimenter bias to the list of problems).

Angry Biting Dog

the cops reaction at her ridiculous talk makes me think it's real, she's just mental, and sh ethinks that the reason the dog goes for crotch is some kinda penis envy or something. the warden seems spot on about it being more mental because of the way the owner is.
