She gave many examples about her own experiences (impossible to verify). To re- enforce her remarks, she made reference to a Stanford University study that "proved" that people had this ability. She gave accuracy ratings (from the study) of 95-100 percent. She also stated that the study also found that a group of "regular" people scored between 85-100 percent. I decided to per- sue the matter further and asked her where she read about the study and when it was done. She replied it was in a book she read (oh, but she forgot the title). Is there anyone who can either verify this data? I'd really like to here about the Stanford study (if it was actually done), it's findings, and most importantly, where it was published. Many thanks.
