Here I propose the theory that, if it exists at all, psi is a spontaneous experience not amenable to laboratory research. I believe this theory is fully consistent with the scientific evidence which indicates a total failure to replicate any laboratory finding.That doesn't sound right. Think of Dean Radin's work - replicated by a number of other groups, and the ganzfeld experiments. Obviously there is an underlying random component to the results (as there is on the accumulation of results in a double-slit experiment done one at a time) but by any reasonable definition, these are repeatable experiments!
