A paranormal prediction for the next year.

[John Clark]

One year ago I sent the following post to the list, I did not change one word. One year from now I intend to send this same message yet again.

I just sent the following message to the Extropian list, as there has been

 

some discussion of psi on this list too I thought I'd sent it here also.

Happy New Year all.

I predict that a paper reporting positive psi results will NOT appear in

 

Nature or Science in the next year. This may seem an outrageous

 

prediction, after all psi is hardly a rare phenomena, millions of

 

people with no training have managed to observe it, or claim they have.

 

And I am sure the good people at Nature and Science would want to

 

say something about this very important and obvious part of our natural

 

world if they could, but I predict they will be unable to find anything

 

interesting to say about it.

 

You might think my prediction is crazy, like saying a waitress with an

 

eight's grade education in Duluth Minnesota can regularly observe the

 

Higgs boson with no difficulty but the highly trained Physicists at CERN

 

in Switzerland cannot. Nevertheless I am confident my prediction is true

 

because my ghostly spirit guide Mohammad Duntoldme spoke to me

 

about it in a dream.

 

PS: I am also confident I can make this very same prediction one year from

 

today.

I agree, but people are easily fooled:

"Over the last week, a passage from a book by self-proclaimed psychic
Sylvia Browne has gone viral on social media because of its supposed
prediction of the coronavirus.

"In around 2020, a severe pneumonia-like illness will spread throughout
the globe, attacking the lungs and the bronchial tubes and resisting all
known treatments," reads the first part of the passage, posted to
Twitter by celebrities including Kim Kardashian.

Now, it seems many people are giving credence to the existence of
"psychics," or at least one psychic — Browne — whose 2008 book, "End of
Days," has shot up toward the top of the best-sellers in the "Christian
books and Bibles" category on Amazon, likely because of recent
attention.

Browne, who died in 2013, wasn't infallible when it came to predictions
— in fact, very far from it.

In a 2004 episode of The Montel Williams Show, where she appeared as a
regular contributor to answer questions from audience members (who were
often dealing with emotional trauma), she told the mother of Amanda
Berry that her daughter had died; Berry was kidnapped by Ariel Castro
and later found alive. Browne remained quiet in the aftermath, though
Williams eventually apologized.

Among predictions in dozens of her other books and on her website, she
also predicted that a cure for the common cold would exist and aliens
would have revealed themselves by now, in addition to providing false
information on several missing individuals.

Browne was not a psychic; she was a cold-reader, which means she guessed
a lot. She'd use a person's physical appearance to make guesses. Instead
of providing psychic insight, however, she often made mistakes.

Her passage, which reads that a possible "pneumonia-like" disease would
vanish quickly is also quite flawed, if this was, in fact, intended to
describe the coronavirus.

The point of this? If you make enough guesses, even those who are so
often wrong might eventually get something a little right — but not
because they're psychic."
