Rupert Sheldrake has designed a test to see if you?re psychic. If you take this test, he and his colleague, Pamela Smart (who owns a psychic dog) would like to know the results.

First, find 5 people who feel they are psychic. The experiment should last an hour, during a time when no one is expecting other calls.

The coordinator then selects 2 of the 4 potential callers at random, by throwing a dice and assigning people numbers 1 through 4. If the same number comes up more than once, that person will make both calls. The 5th person will receive the calls.

Aimee Morgana in New York has a psychic parrot named N?Kisi, who has passed the kind of psi tests given to remote viewers. Aimee can sit in one room looking at images, and the parrot can name them, using words in N’Kisi’s vocabulary of 555 words.

Dr. Rupert Sheldrake has tested the parrot with 70 images, and the parrot named the images correctly 32 times. “You?d only expect 5.2 hits like this to occur by chance,” he said. “This is staggering.”

The parrot has also been tested by a reporter for the London Sunday Mail reporter, who said that N?Kisi knew that she had been talking about a friend?s dead pet, when she said to her, “Remember the cat?”

A statement from Whitley Strieber:

I have just talked on the phone to Art and he is extremely happy about his return to the air. He said, “I’m gonna be a little rusty, but I’m excited.” So that marvelous voice from the high desert is soon to be heard again, bringing to the deep night the special magic that is only and exclusively Art Bell’s.

On New Year?s Eve, Norway?s new high speed express trains suddenly quit running. The computers on the trains did not recognize the date, despite being reprogrammed late last year in anticipation of the “Millennium Bug.”

“We didn?t think of trying out the date 31/12/00,” said Ronny Solberg of Adtranz, the company that manufactures the trains. They solved the problem temporarily by resetting the train computers to December 1, 2000. “Now we have one month to find out what went wrong so we can fix the problem for good,” Solberg said.

The Y2K bug has belatedly bitten in the U.S. as well. Cash registers in the 2,500 7-Eleven stores in Dallas refused to take credit cards because they read this year?s date as 1901 instead of 2001.
