I'll probably be flamed, but here goes anyways: in my life's experience as a highly rational high-level engineer, I've run across too much first hand to rule out things like ESP or clairvoyance.

Matter of fact, I'd have to rule them in, and if a guy like me is ruling them in, there must be a scientifically explainable phenomenon.

I'm not saying this physicist is doing a good job of investigating phenomena traditionally considered "paranormal", but eventually someone will come up with rational, provable theories explaining just how these things sometimes come about.

Brains are complex electro-chemical mechanisms that are not fully understood. The world of physics has a lot to understand about the world. Eventually they very might link up in surprising ways....

You forgot the Q.E.D.

I think the mistake is to say physics has hit rock bottom: more correctly i'd say it has hit a brick wall, an impasse. The future of physics, the really wild theories that will be the bedrock of science say 200 years from now, are IMHO hiding in some of what most people would consider the bizarre stuff.

An example is Roger Penrose's ideas, or Hameroff of the U of Arizona's theories on who the brain works... very elegant theory that ties in a lot of really esoteric stuff!

Deja vu is pretty well documented even if little understood.

I've had first hand experience with predicting dice throws.
It doesn't occur on demand, but when it comes up it has been perfectly accurate on several occasions. If only I had been in Reno at the time...
