You know, John, if I were an amazing Randi type, aside from the fact that I wouldn't be caught dead posting to vortex-l, I would propose my own control experiment rather than asking you what you considered to be an acceptable control experiment.
If I were the Amazing Randi, my control experiment would be something like show a bunch of people random images and ask them if they "felt anything". I would then proceed to lead a monkey beat upon you satisfying the egos of a bunch of "skeptics" that they had the strength of numbers on their side. So how about showing me the respect that I showed you by asking you what YOU would consider to be an acceptable control experiment?
