This is a truly excellent piece, Brendan. Given your stellar track record when venturing into such "paranormal" domains, I expected nothing less.

Hiya Sol. I kinda lost track of you, but I did enjoy Cali the Destroyer.

Fascinating assemblage of research. Thankyou for your thoroughness. For my own part I experiment often while driving at rush hour and definitely notice that the odds are very high that a person who I stare at , while stopped, whether in a car or on the sidewalk invariably looks back within seconds. Busted!

Great read. It immediately reminded me of the old grammar school trick of staring at the ear of a head in the desk ahead of me until he/she scratched that particular spot. Never failed. Also, I am reminded of the sensitivity of the galvanic response read on a Scientology E-Meter when a person was asked pointed questions. Additionally, there was almost always eye to eye contact between the practitioner and the subject. The meter was super sensitive.

Yup. People rip Scientology but it changed my life for the better. As a "Class VI Auditor" and a "Clear" OT3, I saw both sides of the Meter. That was in the late 70's and early 80's. Good times!

This article also alludes to Stuart Wilde's ideas on the Morph and the speckled ambiance. See his book 'The Art of Redemption'

“Quiet introverts may possess, or have developed, a higher sensitivity to the consciousness or at least the attention of others.”

Ironically it was my shyness which attracted me to show business. When I’m on stage I feel like I’m in control and as an entertainer I’m watcher of the audience from my position on stage. I reverse the process. I never knew why until I read your article now. Thank you, my understanding is better now! 🤗
