Yes, Cleve Backster proved this back in the late 60's. Thoughts can influence experiments significantly. Also what is believed by the majority of people to a large extent forms the reality of what is possible.
I think the buckyball thing is very telling. (I am talking about the buckminister fullerines). They had never been seen, and a chemist published that they should be one of the most stable forms of carbon. But much searching turned up nothing. After many chemists and many experiments, they finally produced a little of it via a vapor deposition method in a vacuum at high tempartures. Well funny thing is that after publishing these results, then all the chemists suddenly believed that this rare form of carbon existed, it suddenly started showing up everywhere. Plain old soot contains lots of it, but before the chemists believed it existed, soot always tested negative for it. It is as if nature completely overlooked this molecule as possible, and once it realized it should be in the mix for soot, started making it. But it is even weirder than that, old soot, which initially contained none of it, started having it as well once the chemists all believed it should be there. Reality can really be weird sometimes.
