And it seems like that's the biggest problem with "supernatural" research right there. If a scientist does this testing and says they've discovered a new chemical, or new rule governing physics, it would be properly studied by other scientists. But with ESP, people wind up just righting it off more often than not. Not that I'm saying that you should just take their word for it, but but it through the neccesary tests because that's how science works, NOT because it goes against your current belief system.
