A good NDE is a self-reported NDE

Personally NDERF has never been something I pay much attention to because AFAICTell it is just submissions on the web without verification?

T.A.S.T.E actually knows who is submitting, from what I can tell, even if they keep the scientist's name anonymous. So that one I think is more interesting.

The very fact that these imperfect data collection schemes are necessary, frustrates me intensely. At least those running these schemes are doing their best to preserve some fascinating data about the nature of reality.

BTW, yes Sbu makes statements which seem to separate his ideas from those of simple materialists, and yet somehow, he just doesn't seem to get what you and Nbtruthman and myself get!

@sbu I think if you wrote at greater length about these issue it really might help. Quips about the quality of Sam Parnia's results don't seem close to that.
