First of all, although I myself support psi topics I expect a moderator to move this to the correct paranormal sections as psi is currently not accepted as science.
Telepathy at a distance however has been subject of many experiments, and it does not seem to be a factor. Even time seems to not be a factor which is unusually strange.
Sir Hubert Wilkins was the well known aviator and Arctic and Antarctic explorer who has taken part in ten Polar expeditions, commanding six of them; he holds the Military Cross of the British Empire and has been honored by leading scientific societies throughout the world. It is also obvious from his name that he was knighted by the Queen. Mr. Harold M. Sherman is a successful author ( OVER 50 BOOKS,and a very popular fiction adventure series )and scenario writer. Both have long been interested in the possibilities of telepathy as a human faculty which might be developed in qualified persons and employed for human welfare.
In 1921, Harold worked as a reporter for The Marion Chronicle in Indiana. He moved to New York City in 1924 to write several popular boys' sports and adventure books (notably the Tahara series) and to produce two plays on Broadway.
The Sherman family spent the 1950s and early 1960s in Hollywood, writing for television and lecturing on his most recent work.
They are both long dead but it was books written by Harold Sherman that first peaked my interest in ESP as a teenager with a book entitled, "How to make ESP work for you.
A book was written as these two men contracted to attempt long distance telepathy while Sir Hubert Wilkins was on an arctic mission to recover Russian Pilots, and Harold Sherman was in New York City. This was in the Winter of 1937-38 and radio contact was not a great option most of the time back then. I also possess this book, and the impressions received were more often than not extremely accurate.
I SPEAK IN "PROBABILITIES" WHEN I MENTION TELEPATHY, but when you actually do it or witness how an exact situation can be described in such vivid detail it really leaves no room for doubt. I calculate probabilities, but they are far from the most convincing factors.
There was official "Blinds" in place, but these men were very reputable, and of 5 months of communicating 3 times per week they had 70% of readings were extremely accurate.
Watch this video from 6:30 on to see Harold Sherman (MY HERO) speak about it.

This is more on Sir Wilkins, and what a arctic flight involved back then.

Distance, Time, and no known shielding could prevent thoughts from being percieved by the receiver according to Harold Sherman.
Although dated. I recommend anybody with interest to grab books from this long dead author. The sending messages during REM seems like it originated with him, and his stories seem believable, and many are backed by third party involvement as he mentions in the video (his readings were sent to reputable officials).
You could read a lot more on that experiment without purchasing the book likely, by simply googling the names together.
EXPERIMENTS LIKE THIS ONE FOLLOWING ARE VERY, VERY, VERY EASY TO DO AND SHOULD BE EXPERIENCED (Just Saying).
I successfully replicated an experiment outlined by Harold Sherman on my very first try when I was 17 years old. I broadcast the message "(Friends name here), (My name here) misses you very much, get in touch." which brought a written letter to my door in 5 days from an old friend in another country whom I had not heard of in approx 5-6 months.
A sentence in the letter stated,"Last night I had a dream about you that prompted me to write.". I saved that letter for many years.
Yes I highly recommend psychic books by that man, but he authored many books of various types, like..

Someone else who used this method...
Doctor Sigmund Freud believed that he was able to communicate remotely with his fiancée Martha by thought alone when he was in Paris (Jones, 1957, vol. 3). Later, he attempted to conduct experiments of this kind, which is reflected in his correspondence with Ferenczi in 1910 and with his daughter Anna in 1925.
Sigmund Freud once wrote," [This data] ...puts an end to any possible remaining doubt about thought transference. Henceforward the new knowledge was to be taken for granted"
http://books.google.ca/books?id=uJs...v=onepage&q=Ferenczi in 1910 telepathy&f=true
Read the above link from page 99 on and see how Doctor Sigmund Freud once commented about psychic phenomenon (psi).
He said,"If I were at the beginning rather than at the end of a scientific career, as I am today, I might choose just this area of research in spite of all its difficulties."
THE MAN KNOWN TO BE THE FOUNDER OF PSYCHOANALYSIS WHICH IS THE FOUNDATION OF MODERN DAY PSYCHIATRY TELLS PEOPLE IF HE COULD GO BACK AND DO IT ALL AGAIN HE WOULD STUDY TELEPATHY (PSI) INSTEAD. THIS IS KNOWN FACT.
Carl Jung his friend was convinced mind affected matter and coined a new term "synchronicity", and believed in signs and omens.

How many years have you studied dreams and telepathy?
So Woo was great with Sigmund Freud a man who spent a lifetime studying dreams and telepathy. I use the word woo sarcastically here.

If you say,
"He is a control freak"
or
"he is so anal"
or use words like Ego, or Id.
you are speaking Freudian.
IMAGINE FOR A SECOND: Imagine you repeatedly do your own psychic experiments that are very convincing and meet your own standards. Imagine how that would open your mind. Could you then imagine a global consciousness? An Afterlife? Even a god? For these reasons I implore everyone to please, please, please, read these books and try these experiments repeatedly until you can do it successfully all the time. I am not asking you support what I am saying here. Even if you do it in secret it will be the best thing to open your mind EVER.
You can think I am gullible, but I swear on my mothers life (She's alive I'm only 45) I am being truthful about my psychic experiments I outlined as being inspired by Harold Sherman. I swear I have seen enough weird stories that belief can never be an issue. I really wish some of you will be inspired to actually try telepathy with half as much effort as you put into condemning it.
IT IS EASY>>>>>
One day we will all face death. Reading this material and doing these experiments could make you actually believe you have something to look forward to and could save you the misery of expecting a blank demise. TRY IT !!!
@ Dinosaur,
I have answered my STRONG beliefs (BECAUSE THEY ARE REAL), but have not addressed the medium of how the signals are sent. I honesty do not know. The idea that there is an underlying collective consciousness is a favorite explanation for it, but it is only a W.A.G. (Not S.W.A.G.). I do hope you will read those books however as you seem to have an interest.
Electrical energy has been noted from the brain, but nothing connected with psychic phenomenon as they seem very weak.
Everyone has this ability. Sending and Receiving require NO practice. Sigmund Freuds friend used to practice guessing strangers names on the bus and later asking them.
I think anyone wanting to can tune into a thought. I think the thoughts are somehow material in nature and we can tune into their frequencies.
P.S. Okay. I had my say. No skeptic stuff I have not heard already though, so maybe you can simply copy and paste the usual rhetoric. I had no involvement with this not being in paranormal threads. I do feel sorry for those who have not experienced this stuff, but it is your own fault as it is very easy to do.
