USE THE FORCE, LUKE.
Maybe one of the reasons you came to this board is the fact that your mind is not open to new ideas.Originally posted by LikerOfWomen
This is really, really stupid.
It had me really interested until he started prattling on about thought waves. They don't exist any more than fire-breathing dragons and the tooth fairy. This is crazy-person-with-a-tinfoil-hat stuff through and through.
I'm a very open-minded person, but there's a big difference between being open-minded and being a sucker for a gimmicky superstition.
The fact that so many people would seriously consider these ideas shows me how horribly our educational system has failed to provide people with an understanding of critical thinking, standards of evidence, and the scientific method.

A curious subject, you might be intrested in learning about
KINESICS.. the power of silent command! using body language for controle over people!!
PROXIMICS..using area and personal space for power over others.. the structure of silent command!!
body language has become, to say the least, an amazing subject..
watching the sub-concious behaviour can be an edjucating experience..
It was actually Nikola Tesla who invented the radio, a fact that has been almost forgotten by historians. Nikola had seven patents for the radio but Marconi added on a few things and beat Tesla to the punch in sending a transatlantic message. Hence, Marconi is commonly credited as "inventing" radio. Tesla sued in court and years later the US Supreme Court invalidated Marconi. Tesla invented the radio. But, this is straying off-topic.xanderbaz:
Marconi (the guy who invented the radio, if I'm wrong please correct me)
You may want to read Miracle on Probability Street --Bonhomme:
How many of you have picked up the phone to call a certain individual without either of you having any particular reason to expect a call from the other, and had that person be on the line, having called you at the same time?
Or have you heard from someone you've been out of touch with for a while after you've been thinking of them a lot more than usual, just "out of the blue"?
Funny thing is, I remembered this fact a few seconds after I finished writing my post, but was too lazy to fix my error. I first thought of Marconi because Napoleon Hill mentions him as the founder of radio in his "Think and Grow Rich" book, which is by the way an excellent read.Originally posted by Deep Dish

Think about it this way: think of all the times you think about someone and they never call.Bonhomme
Transmission of some sort of "thought waves" is the most reasonable explanation I can come up with, and that's my current hypothesis until some better explanation comes up. And "mere coincidence" is too highly improbable in this particular case to be it.
