Such events are not nearly as rare as you assume.  Just last Sunday while
coming back from a trip to Big Bend Nat. Park I suddenly found myself thinking
about a computer programmer friend crashing a diskette and losing valuable
work shortly after noon.  Past experience had taught me to recognize these
unusual changes in mental thoughts as being ESP related.  Sure enough, the
person had been working on the weekend (a rare event in itself) and had
accidently erase a complete diskette on his Grid at that time.

Coincidence?  If this only happened once sure.  But every couple of months
I have the same thing kind of thing happen.  No way that's coincidence.
