Cosmin:
Your "gut feeling" that the exchange with your girl friend on facebook was telepathy - is an example of raw belief in telepathy, not rigor. You believed that your facebook exchange was a sample of unification of you and your girl friend's sub-consciousnesses. (I did get what you meant by unification, but generalized it.)

How much raw faith does it take to totally ignore your own first rule (/1) Such precise sharable details. ) /in favor of raw believing that that exchange was telepathy? How could she fail to mention Italy, and how is "castles" representative of Italy? And almost every city I've visited in Europe, even small ones, sometimes have street parties. Doesn't uniqueness count?  That's where the precognition hotlines failed. Of the 10's of thousands of events "predicted" - not one was uniquely separable from the millions of events not submitted to such hotlines.

If you would bother to examine a few of the many thousands of studies on ESP (books, articles, etc.) - you would see that many of them are done with extreme rigor and preciseness, correctly using statistics to eliminate random chance and "lucky guesses." You brought up, in your list of "proofs" - many, many studies. Follow them through, even a little bit. Look for rigor. Many report failures. A great example of a super thorough study/project I mentioned elsewhere on this thread. Called "Operation Stargate," it was very well-funded by the US Government, was called and lasted more than a year. Research it. I've talked with people that participated in it. (My father asked me to.) It crashed and burned.

After such a long post, you only showed that you failed to understand what unification is. The details are precise in the sense that sub-consciousnesses unified. Then, on top of that unification, different new qualia have been emerged on the 2 different consciousnesses. The fact that the final result is not 100% identical doesn't disprove telepathy, but rather shows that telepathy happens at the sub-consciousnesses level, and not at the highest level of consciousness. See ? This is the difference between a real scientists and a random "skeptic". A scientists try to understand a phenomenon for what it is, while a "skeptic" dismisses everything he doesn't like.

    Endless experiments of what you suggest about
    unification/telepathy/precognition/etc. together/separate/etc. has
    been tested and tested and tested, under all sorts of
    circumstances under all conditions thinkable. My father was a
    lifelong believer things like telepathy and failure to confirm his
    beliefs didn't deter him from believing, even though he was a
    good-thinking electronic engineer with >12 patents (you can look
    him up in USPTO.gov , Meyer Marks, before year 1975).
    _
    Phenomenology infers that there is a phenomenon_, and in the case
    of telepathy and precognition, no phenomena can be demonstrated,
    whether "unified" with emotion/communication etc., when
    falsifiable experiments show every claim to be a "lookalike," such
    as conjuring (magician's tricks), fakers like Uri Geller, random
    chance, liars, clever opportunity seekers, coincidences, or flat
    misinterpretations, etc. The total failure of precognition
    hotlines demonstrate that precognition is unlikely to be a
    phenomenon - with a score of zero hits in probably millions of
    submissions over maybe 20 years.

    There are "treasure chests" of experiments, extremely thoroughly
    investigated and documented by thousands of investigators for
    centuries, including your suggested "unification." Look up the
    files in the archives of randi.org <http://randi.org> , Dr
    Shermer's Skeptical Inquirer, Joseph Nichol's work, CSICOP (now
    CSI, Committee for skeptical Inquiry) and a dozen more, most
    discoverable with web searching. Randi has an excellent library in
    Florida that should be accessible for research.

    Cosmin, your example of your girlfriend and you "connecting" thru
    facebook fails your own criteria, point 1:/    1) Such precise
    sharable details./
    The only way to reconcile the failure to be specific - is to
    "believe anyway."
    Cheers! Howard Marks
