One more time: The interests of psychology are in skeptical open-minded
inquiry, in the rigor of the scientific method -- not in the agenda of the
Committee for the Scientific Investigation of Claims of the Paranormal --
more appropriate would be the Committee Against the Scientific Investigation
of Claims of the Paranormal. For fun how about some nonCSICOP reading --
Gardner Murphy's The Challenge of Psychical Research, or something by Irv
Child or Gertrude Schmeidler or Richard Broughton -- or Jung, Adler, or . .
