This is interesting. I had to chuckle at the idea of them using phone AND email. Just the other day, I sent an email and oddly, I thought my phone would ring shortly after I sent the email. My thought was that I would receive a call from the person I sent the email to. The phone did in fact ring, but it was a wrong number.

Thanks kore7 and djiezes for setting the record straight. I wonder if the article's line about Sheldrake getting funded by Trinity College is true, and if so, why they would fund such a crackpot.

Willhelm, I'm surprised to see you, of all people, get taken in by a Reuters article.
Taken in.. If you are right, yes I was taken in. Just thought it was interesting, didn't do a "background check".
