'The scientific community has been put on notice "that there is something worthy of their attention and scrutiny" in the possibilities of extra-sensory perception. With those words the respected British journal Nature called on scientists to join - or refute - millions of non-scientists who believe human consciousness has more capabilities for real perception than the five senses.'
New York Times editorial

The nearest I have come to influencing living things is making seeds germinate, which I have done twice on television recently . . . As with so many things I have done, the original idea was not mine. It came from the astronaut Edgar Mitchell, shortly after we first met in 1972. We were sitting and chatting with Dr Wilbur Franklin, when Mitchell suddenly produced a seed and asked me if I could make it germinate while he held it in his own hand. I just stared at his hand and concentrated on making the seed sprout. When it did, Mitchell and Franklin were delighted, but I was not. In fact, the experience scared me stiff . . .
