Something of this snarl will become clearer as I narrate through some of the events ahead -which, if painful, has to be done in the contexts of the real story of remote viewing. You see, when the intelligence community DID become interested in certain bio-mind phenomena, that community did NOT become interested in parapsychology or parapsychologists. Why that was so needs to be understood -- and above I have just laid the initial ground work for that understanding.

So I began a backflow of protest into the gossip lines emanating from Buell-central and Zelda-central. "I am not a psychic!" I was to lose that protest entirely -- mostly because of the avalanche of confusions perpetuated by those whose knowledge and vision is limited by a rather narrow and simplistic nomenclature. Everyone knows what a psychic is, right?
