Final Recommendation/Conclusion (from the document):
As an admitted neophyte in this area of endeavor, I categorize the field as a kind of religion, i.e., you either have "faith" that it indeed is something real, albeit fleeting and unique, or you "disbelieve" and attribute all positive results to either chicanery or pure chance.' Practicioners in the field, including those funded under government contracts, would argue with these observations, perhaps vehemently; some would argue further that the phenomenology has been verified beyond question already. This reviewer disagrees; albeit, these observations are not intended to discard the possibility of such phenomena.
That is Ed May's site. Ed was the project manager for many years.
Every year some new politician would show up and question the funding.
They knew if they showed the politician how it worked they would go back to DC thinking it was just some trick. So each new politician they taught them the protocol and let the politician do it themselves. They got funding for another year.
