[FITZ]

I don't know about telepathy but I know there have been times I started thinking about a family member I hadn't spoken with for some time and decided to call them but sitting down to make the call, and instead the phone rang and it was the same person I was about to call. I guess there are logical explanations for that kind of thing ---maybe some forgotten trigger like the date of some kind of anniversary --in the unconscious mind. Language is very useful of course but I think all of us think and reason without words. One thing I think is interesting is if you take a computer programming class or something else that requires reason ---and you decide to sleep on a problem, suddenly at night the solution comes to you ---and it happened in some part of your brain but didn't require conscious waking thought.

I was 35 when I first learned to speak and write the english language, I am 65 now. Prior to learning your language, I communicated exclusively by way of telepathy.

Telepathy is not the ability to "read" someones mind, it is the ability to communicate mental thoughts and to receive mental thoughts silently and with complete understanding.

Under the radar, I have been tested many times by the type of people identified in your referenced article but they were under the impression that a telepath has the ability to read someones mind. That is not how it works. Telepathy is just like speaking but you use your mind, not your mouth. It takes two people to communicate telepathecally, one to send and one to receive.

When I am in large crowds, I receive messages from some people, but I am sure that they are unaware that they are transmitting their thoughts. Much of what I have received has been gibberish but occasionally I receive coherent thought. Fitz, I believe that what you have experienced may have been telepathy. I would encourage you to work with whomever you may have these experiences.

Someday, in the future, all mankind will be telepathic and the world will never be the same. But if you want to see real changes to man's society, wait till they discover time travel.
