Websurfer,
Thank you for the link, this is a very fascinating website. It's going to take me a while to absorb it.
Have you ever read the sci-fi novella "Re-Birth" by John Wyndham? It discusses a lot of the things I brought up in my post & that are discussed on the site you linked. Especially this: "Re-Birth" is about a small group of young telepaths who form a psychic link with each other & start a little community. To turns out that the home-base for the big community of telepaths is in: New Zealand--which is, if the web address is any indication, is where that site is located out of. In fact, the more I read the site, the more this is just like that novella. Which is not to say that I think this is just some group basing itself on a sci-fi story--no, when I read "Re-Birth" I recognized it as a very future-thinking, perhaps even intentionally or unintentionally psychic projection. Very interesting--thanks again!
Very much indeed.

My questions to the board are:
1) Do you think this a relatively new phenomenon, or have there been throughout history reports of people having extraordinary abilities like the ones I described?
According to Etymology; Psychokinesis, in Greek, literally means the movement of the mind, soul, spirit, or breath. While Telekinesis deals with the distance known spirit, mind, etc.. moves. Also, known existents was coined in 1914 by a man named Henry Holt. It was written in the book known as, On the Cosmic Relations. Used in 1934 by J.B. Rhine to see if a person could influence, this, "roll of the dice." Here's a Link
2) If this is not a new phenomenon, would you say that there seems to be a sharp increase in the amount of people who can do this in the modern era, or even in the last 25 years?
Do you have proof in any of these powers ? If so, where?
3) Does the Powers That Be take this seriously at all? I know that in Russia & China there have been extensive studies & training of these people. Why not in the West? Or is it going on and we don't know it?
Everything should be taken seriously. Well, question everything is a good way to put it.
4) Should people with these abilities stick together & form online/realtime support groups/communities, or is it better to remain scattered & not attract attention? Or should people with these abilities be "outing" themselves on public boards at all? Or am I being paranoid? Or am I not being paranoid?
Same of mind, same of heart. We're all connected. You can say, like a family. Maybe others need this type of influence in their life because as they were a child, had no acceptance from others. They felt alone and miserable. Then when something like happens, they begin to question the entire core foundation on how they were raised. Doesn't sound very happy, right? Alas, we are at the mere 25! More is to come! Keep questioning everything!
I think in the next 25 years these questions and this topic is going to be a very big issue in the world.

Telepathy, telekinesis, whatever, it all exists. Studies show that humans only use about 10% of their brain's capacity (although some people don't agree with that). That means that we have yet to evolve our brains. People just don't believe in telepathy, etc. because there's very limited evidence, although there IS evidence. Imagine, for a second, a person who is blind. They wouldn't have the slightest clue as to what anything would look like, they would compare the colour red to the sound of a guitar or any other sound.
So, people who don't have telepathy would have no idea what it would be like, and since almost everyone on Earth doesn't have telepathy, they simply go with the majority and say it's impossible. I'm not saying to go and change your mind if you don't believe in telepathy, believe in whatever you want. Just remember with enough time, nothing is impossible.

You don't have to be lieve me not at all. I only do to believe what I see.
But a question for you. I always wondered in psychic clinics, they didn't hear voices. After drugs they did. Is it possible to go so deep in your subconcionsness That you hear stuff That belongs to other lower or high er frequentys? You think drugs can cause that?
Just want your opinion on that

I knew a guy in high school who could somehow get people to not notice him. I'm not saying he was physically invisible, just highly unnoticable. I'm serious. I saw him do it on many occasions. I don't know how. He said it was just the way you project yourself in a crowd.
I guess his super-hero name would be, [color=999999]Not-There Man.
