In particular, the remote viewing experiments that were presented so positively have been very carefully criticised. The findings of PSI experimenters to date has yet to provide convincing evidence, biased presentations such as the recent NOVA program do no service to either the supporters of PSI or the critics. If there is something to PSI it will be found only when the mechanisms for self delusion are clearly understood and eliminated from the studies.
