The writer of this paper recently emulated an experiment which Timothy Good himself had carried out. On January 18th, 2009 he visited a restaurant in Hong Kong with his family and a woman business associate. In the corner was a local Chinese girl sitting with two olive skinned people, a man and a woman.... Their features were more chiseled than normal and were extremely striking and beautiful. In jest the writer said to his son Jake, “Watch, I bet they are ETs, I will ask her mentally to touch her nose”. She did so and all the family giggled at the coincidence.
The writer decided to repeat the challenge and Jake requested him to mentally ask the girl to run her fingers through her hair.
Within ten seconds she did just that. The family group became very quiet, perhaps even nervous. The writer’s wife then asked that they try to mentally ask her to drop the little blue pack of tissues (that restaurants hand out), on the ground. They all experimented with this mental request and waited more than 10 minutes. Nothing happened and a sense of relief surrounded the table. Rather disappointed the writer called for the bill and when they left the restaurant he looked back one more time. Both strangers were staring at him with a very warm smile. The writer looked at the table; the tissues were still there, but when he looked at the ground, there was another blue pack lying on the floor. The emotions threw everyone into a state of bewilderment. The writer realized that their last action was one of plausible deniability, a message in itself to leave them in peace, free of any unnecessary attention.
'The writer' is Neil Gould, apparently not a stranger to ufology (although I haven't looked up his name on a search engine yet). I shared this story on another forum where it wasn't that well received. For me there are elements which I recognise. Tim Good tried the same experiment decades ago with surprising results, so did David Hughes-Narborough (listed a couple of posts below). I'm sure there are a lot more people who went out, made (telepathic) requests and got exactly what they asked. Mainstream ufology treats (I should say avoids) this particular phenomenon like the plague. My guess is, is that this goes well beyond the comfort zone of most investigators and people who find ufology interesting. In a bad mood (and I have a few of those these days) I want to say to those people who deny this kind of experience; 'go out in the open and try it out yourself, you cowardly armchair critic'. But I realise that experiences like these are not for everyone. Most people who criticise and deny such experiences simply aren't ready for it and that's what they subconsciously spew out on forums and in real life. I guess that's the burden people carry who have experienced more.
