The machine apparently sensed the September 11th attacks on the World Trade Centre four hours before they happened, and appeared to forewarn of the Asian Tsunami. They pegged my bu||$hit meter.

This is somewhat akin to the RetroPsychoKinesis project.

I tried it a few times, I’m pretty good at changing the past!
Unfortunately I have not been able to change last Friday’s lottery numbers yet...

I am probably one of the few in the thread who took the time to consider your comment and I do follow what you're saying. Just finished Kip Thorne's book "Black Holes and Time Warps" and found it interesting how he speculated that zero point energy (particles springing up from quantum fields in various quantum states) can mediate what can and can not occur within wormholes. In other words, quantum fluctuations would prevent a time traveler from ever encountering the classical time travel paradoxes. Since those paradoxes would throw a bucket of supercooled water on the whole idea, time travel through wormholes is still a "go".
Regarding the eggs, I think there is a real phenomenon there, not that we could ever put it to any useful purpose. Nature seems to limit those opportunities.

In any large series of random events, there will always be clusters of data that appear to be non random. Somehow, the word cluster, in a non-statistical sense, comes to mind.

Actually, quite sophisticated statistical analysis has ruled out random effects, clustering or otherwise, by more digits than you’d want to count.

I find it amazing most of those animals sensed that the tsunami was going to happen 24 hours before it happened and moved inland to safety.... a good case in point that animals are smarter than humans.......
I saw one show were these people were on some kind of street car/bus and the first wave hit and stayed in the street car/bus and didn't bother to run to safety and their mother was killed when the 2nd wave hit.

The only reports I find interesting is that it ( as they say it does ) spiked ( for 9/11 ) 4 hours before it happened, and 24 hours ( and the animals moved inland ) before the tsunami hit.

Anyone who has lived at least four score & ten has witnessed the reality of Universal Mind in action every time a new crop of babies arrive. All the boys are named Bill and all the girls are named Kathy. Prospective parents sit down to pore over name books and aganize over the choices, seeking to find a name that is “different”, and ultimately about 25% of them end up with the same name. Of course Muslims don’t have this problem.

Yup, they already know the answer ~ some version of all the rootwords in "Mohamed" will do.
That's about 99% of 'em, right?

I wonder if it predicted Clinton blowing up the Chinese embassy,
or that aspirin factory. Or the ** in the oval office closet?

The same happened with the Asian Tsunami. Twenty four hours before the tragedy unfolded, the characteristic shift in the pattern of numbers began. Curiously, it was at around this time that animals in the path of the tsunami began fleeing for their lives. I sense a disturbance in The Force....BTW the Mega Millions is up to $270 million, can I get some predictions from this machine?

It has been noticed that when new ‘discoveries’ are made, new ‘things’ are invented, (for example: the Radio, use of radio waves), that there is not just one source (person).
Most new inventions are usually being worked on by many different people, all over the planet.
The first one to patent it and sell it to market, is usually the one credited with ‘discovery’.
It’s like these new ‘ideas’ are the result of some external force. (like cosmic waves from the center of the galaxy).

The "striking" results he claimed on his random number generator studies amounted to infinitesimal variations on the order of maybe 2 or 3 anomalies out of 10,000 digits. Hardly statistical significance.Ok, let's flip a coin: On any given flip, what are the chances that it will be heads? 50/50, correct. On the next flip, what are the chances it will be tails? 50/50 again, correct. And so on and so on. Each flip of the coin is a singular event. Events that occurred before any given flip cannot influence any subsequent flip, can they? No, again correct. So, let's assume that we flipped a coin 50 times and it came up heads 40 times and tails 10 times. On the next flip, what are the chances it will be tails? 50/50, again correct.
What I am illustrating is that you are correct in saying that any set of statistical anomalies in a series of random events is "hardly [of] statistical significance".
