We haven't heard back from Dave and Cheryl, but I think we have it covered. Sorry to hear that you had a last minute change but we totally understand. If you can make it we'd love to have you there!

Last post by PPI Marlene - October 18, 2016, 11:25:04 AMHi Team: Do you have enough people for tomorrow's presentation? I'm supposed to be at my new place for the worker but if you don't, I can reschedule him. Just let me know. This came up unexpectedly and don't want the team to be short-handed. Thanks!

Science In the News / Re: Entopic Phenomenon
Last post by PPI Karl - October 11, 2016, 02:24:07 PMGreat vid. Very interesting. I'd love for us to do a mini-lesson video on how conditions of the eye can create paranormal-like phenomena.
In addition to floaters, I've had laser surgery for retinal tears in both of my eyes, and the scar tissue captures flashes that I have to be mindful of when I'm in a dark space. Additionally, I've "suffered" from ocular (or optical) migraines (they're not actually painful) for almost ten years now, and until I understood what they were, I truly, genuinely believed them to be some sort of paranormal phenomenon at first. I think that when people don't have any frame of reference to interpret these otherwise subjective experiences happening within their eyes, their go-to response (coupled with the primate brain's subconscious tendency to scan continuously for predatory "danger") is to conclude, understandably, that something supernatural is happening to them. It's probably why, over the years, most of the subjective claims we've taken from clients who "witnessed" apparitions and shadows never panned out in the objectively collected data. It's all in their heads, but just not in the way that turn of phrase usually comes across. (This could also be why they're reluctant to bring up these reports to their own opthalmalogists!)
Here's another interesting YouTube vid about ocular migraines you might find interesting:
