Just watched a segment on Daily Planet on discover channel that talked about a Global Consciousness. Really interesting stuff to ponder if we are all somehow connected more so that what we see every day.
The Global Consciousness project goes like this:
They have 37 small "electronic random event generators" around the world plugged into computers that generate random numbers 24/7. The data is recorded and sent to Princeton where it is recorded. What they have found is that the numbers are skewed when certain events happen. For example, on Princess Dianna’s funeral, or any new year’s eve or any event like that, strange things happen that don't seem random.
This was especially evident on Sept. 11.
