    Presentiment-type experiments and a question

    This is general question meant for anyone who has a good knowledge of presentiment experiments. I'm posting here because this section seems to get the most traction. Does anyone know if, as part of any presentiment experiments, a researcher was provided with the raw physical response data...

    Alex's view of Atheism

    This has been bugging me for a while, but hearing Alex in his last podcast has me honestly questioning if perhaps skeptiko is more parody disguised as a serious podcast. The levels of hyperbole are through the roof. Here are some points I'd love for Alex to clarify, and I should see no problem...

    What color is this dress?

    This is making the rounds on the internet today, and apparently there are large debates about it. I won't go into why as it may affect your perception. The simple question is what do you perceive to be the colors of this dress?

    James Randi, the documentary?

    I gotta be honest. No idea Fonzie knew about him.

    Consciousness and the brain as a filter - Some questions

    I would like opinions on the questions below. This is just a starting point, and I'd like to pursue some other lines of inquiry after I get a sense of where people are coming from. If you don't feel like answering the questions with some directness that's fine, but I would very much appreciate...

    Do you think Alex could score an interview with Uri Geller?

    It would seem he has enough clout with the podcast and his past guests that he could do it. Then maybe he could spring some of the hard hitting questions on him point blank. Like "Yes or no, is what you do real?". Considering Geller has proven his abilities beyond the shadow of a doubt to...

    Watch this @$$hat put the final nail in the coffin for TED

    I have not minced words when discussing my disdain for magicians who use faux science/psychological explanations for otherwise simple parlor tricks. But this is taking it to another level. Watch here as David Kwong and TED come together to make a mockery of truth.

    A question about the GCP

    I'm looking for a concise explanation as to why we are not able to look at incoming data at GCP and predict major events based on the same kind of data that showed up during other similar events. Or perhaps they've done this already? I have very little understanding of statistics, and as a...

    Join the informal EYES experiment here on the forum

    Hey everyone. David Bailey started a thread on gathering information about an individual by solely looking at a picture of that person's eyes, as detailed in this post here. I thought it would be fun to do an informal experiment to see what type of information any forum members can glean by...

    A man in my neighborhood has gone missing

    I was wondering if there is anyone on the forum who can offer some kind of insight on where he is, or recommend anyone that can possibly help. Thanks. It also just dawned on me that this may not be the right part of the forum for this, but this area seems to get the most views. PMs are...

    SRI Experiments with Uri Geller as video evidence

    The SRI tests are referenced frequently enough as solid evidence of paranormal ability that I wanted to create a thread to discuss it. This is an offshoot from a recent thread on the old Skeptiko forum, so I thought I'd give it a shot on the new forum and see how goes. The video can be seen...
