So firstly, thinking just about precognition, as it turns out, just last year a researcher called Daryl Bem conducted a piece of research where he found evidence of precognitive powers in undergraduate students, and this was published in a peer-reviewed academic journal and most of the people who read this just said, "Okay, well, fair enough, but I think that's a fluke, that's a freak, because I know that if I did a study where I found no evidence that undergraduate students had precognitive powers, it probably wouldn't get published in a journal.
Tænk først på forudsigelser, og som det viser sig, så udførte en forsker kaldet Daryl Bem sidste år et stykke forskning, hvor han fandt evidens for synske evner hos studerende og fik det publiceret i et peer-reviewed akademisk tidsskrift og de fleste som læste det sagde bare: "Okay, godt nok jeg tror det er et lykketræf, et særsyn, fordi jeg ved at hvis jeg udførte det studie, ville jeg ikke finde nogen evidens for at studerende har synske evner og det vil sandsynligvis ikke blive publiceret i noget tidsskrift.
