“We are investigating the psychic “powers of man”, which for so many years conventional science has relegated to the junkpile of superstition. Using the most reliable means possible, we must find out whether or not the powers we call psychic are evidence of a transcendant self that is not entirely mortal. Among the many tasks that confront us is that of determining scientifically whether there is any such thing as a human soul.” —Mechanix Illustrated (December 1953)

Psychic Warfare from 1981 - 2008 (thirtyseven @ Brainsturbator) Rational materialism objects that the human body doesn’t produce enough energy to account for these effects, but this is thinking on the wrong level of scale. As humans on the surface of a spinning planet being exposed to solar and interstellar radiation, we are constantly swimming in energy fields. It would be a subtle but powerful biological trick to harness this energy.
