Yeah, if a majority of sanely-conducted replications of that study succeed, I'll reassess and take psi much more seriously. But so far the Bem saga is almost exactly what I would expect to see, given psi being fake.

Makes sense. If I find any replicated studies in big journals I'll let you know; I only remembered the Bem one because it was pretty recent.

Thanks, I'd appreciate that. I'd also love to hear about other kinds of evidence that are approximately as convincing as replicated big journal studies. I don't expect that evidence to exist or else I'd have updated already, but if it does that information is valuable.
