I'm a long term PA guy. I started professional work in the field in 1980 when I moved to Princeton from Vermont, to join the PEAR lab which was just gearing up. I coordinated research there for the next 22 years, developing a number of mind-machine experiments. Many of these used random event generators and asked people to make the system produce more high or more low numbers. In the early '90s I finally began using long-imagined, continuous running REGs (RNGs) which allowed a variety of new experiments. Most prominent of those were Field REG applications, to see whether we could register effects of group consciousness. Then, in the late '90s this grew to have a global reach in the EGG Project, formally called the Global Consciousness Project. I retired from PEAR in 2002, but continue to run the GCP. Naturally I continue my engagement with the Parapsychological Association, where I currently serve on the Board.
If folks want more information about me, a good place to look is http://noosphere.princeton.edu
I also invite people to take a look at another site I run, which treats skeptic/proponent information regarding psi and psi research. It has a few good bits, and will profit from your good ideas. https://sites.google.com/site/skepticalconcepts/
Register with the Parapsychological Association website to participate in the discussion, or sign in if you already have an account.
The Parapsychological Association is an international professional organization of scientists and scholars engaged in the study of psi (or 'psychic') experiences, such as telepathy, clairvoyance, psychokinesis, psychic healing, and precognition. The primary objective of the PA is to achieve a scientific understanding of these experiences.
First established in 1957, the PA has been an affiliated organization of the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS) since 1969. The PA is a non-profit, non-adjudicating organization that endorses no ideologies or beliefs other than the value of rigorous scientific and scholarly inquiry.
