I don't have time to read 3000 papers.  Would someone who has done so
please tell us what the definitive, reproducible experiment demonstrating
some "PSI" phenomenon is?  Something like the Milliken oil-drop experiment
or the Michelson-Morley experiment in physics would be fine.  There must 
be thousands of them.  Just tell us how to conduct ONE. (I think Randi 
describes one in one of his books and encourages people to try it, but 
we all know that won't work because of Randi's bad vibes.)  ONE 
reproducible experiment is all it takes.  What is it?
