CHRIS GREENE, Canadian Telepathist

[Anti_Hypeman]

This guy is going to go to court and ask them to verify his psychic powers? Wow I hope he posts an update afterwards. If the lawyer is convinced of his powers will his child support skyrocket? Its usually not a good idea to prove that you have the potential to effortlessly earn millions at a child suport hearing.

I was mentally working out a whole test protocol for him, but then I said "Why bother?"

I think I'd have to call about 4:1 odds that he sends KRAMER an update something along the lines of "It seems some people aren't in-tune enough to hear my very loud thought projections, or maybe florescent lights interfere with them, I'll work it out and get those affidavits to you soon!"

With a reply from KRAMER: "You do that."

I think it's more likely that the law clerks will humor him, but being law clerks, they might think twice about signing a notarized statement. Should be interesting.

I live in the Toronto, Ontario area, and I know someone named Chris Greene. Man, oh Man, oh Man...please let it be someone else.

[Rasmus]

Don't you all be so negative!

It should be comparatively easy to design a protocl for this claim; with little cost involved beyond whatever it takes to get a library card.

For the prelims, even one book would do, provided it was thick enough to allow for random texts to be selected from it several times in a row.

(Can I donate a copy of the hithchiker's guide to the galaxy? can i can i can i?)

We will never hear of this person again. If we do then pity Kramer.

I don't know. Maybe I'm a bit too optimistic, but he could turn out to be another Achau Nguyen.

So whats the straight dope on him?
Don't leave me hanging in suspenders!

He already stipulated "in English" in one of his e-mails.

Which is fair, I think. You can't expect a telepath to telepathically understand a language he doesn't speak in the first place, unless you're talking about being assimilated into a hive-mind in which all communication takes the form of thought-concepts which transcend language...

I was going to start a thread about this guy if nobody else had.

I'm frankly surprised somebody would design a test that so completely dependent on the pyschic reception of OTHER people. Usually it's the other way around. If this guy loses, he can just claim the other people recieved it but lied, or their negative thoughts blocked it. When I first read it, I thought it was a joke/scam involving email. But then I just woke up. :o

Isn't the notion that other people can read your thoughts one of the classic signs of schizophrenia?

But he'll find out after he asks the lawyers for help. Either he'll get his affidavits, or he'll get help. Probably the best solution.

Typically, JREF will allow an applicant to bring a "reciever", someone the applicant has worked with before and is reasonably sure of. If the applicant ends up bringing someone that lies or blocks the ability, it's not the fault of JREF or the observers.

My thoughts exactly. (Maybe you read my thoughts, no?) The problem is that it's very hard to give someone a straight answer. ("No, I heard nothing, I suspect you need psychiatric help.") This is not the best way to have the truth broken to you.

The Chris Green[e] I know (I'm unsure if he spells his name with the final 'e') is merely a friend of a former employer of mine. By virtue of an incredible coincidence, I actually ran into him yesterday. He is not the same Chris Greene as the applicant here. Sorry, no dirt for you today.

In fact, the test protocol will insist that the applicant provide his own receiver. See the Paul Carey thread for an explanation.

Verbatim i have the same powers, and i can assure you, whatever disorder we have, he's probably going to win

Well, PsiGuy, don't let him beat you to the prize! We haven't heard from him in a while, and probably never will again - get your application in and claim that million for yourself!

Just as Blackwell suggests, get that application in. I for one look forward to seeing a demonstration of your powers.
