Hi. Please find enclosed your copy of the Proceedings of the Annual Meeting of the
Parapsychological Association. I have also included a corrected version of my paper.
(There were some screw-ups in the tables in the Proceedings that have been fixed.)
All in all, it was a very good meeting. A private funder is going to place $50 M in the field
through an Institute in Nevada and UNLV; good funding is happening in Germany at the
Freiburgh Institute as well.
It seem that your agency's interest and the in-progress review is well known, and much to
my surprise, I found no adverse reactions. If the final analysis is positive with regard to
stating there is an anomaly worth looking at, I suppose the "field" recognizes what impact
that my have.
Jack told me that you and he have worked out the issues about potential conflict of interest,
and he tells me he has identified some individuals, who are still on active duty with the
government, who are willing to talk about the utility factor-first hand.
_ would you consider allowing me the option of adding a commentary to your final
report before it is released? After all, this review is of mostly my work for the last 10
years, and I think that a comment from me might be useful for the final record.
