The newest pet fad in suburban Paris is the Barbary Ape, an endangered species that is imported illegally from North Africa. They start out as a sweet, cuddly pet, but grow up into powerful, aggressive adults, with murderous teeth and claws.

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?”
