Well the OP suggested that I look up the loon, so I did, and this "remote viewing" phrase kept popping up so I just Googled it and Ah-ha, there it was!

If getting out the house would lead to my exposure to more of these nuts, I would prefer to be confined to my office!

Remote Viewing...

Remote viewing (RV) is the purported ability to gather information about a distant or unseen target using paranormal means or extra-sensory perception. Typically a remote viewer is expected to give information about an object that is hidden from physical view and separated at some distance.[1][2][3] The term was introduced by parapsychologists Russell Targ and Harold Puthoff in 1974.[4]
Remote viewing was popularized in the 1990s, following the declassification of documents related to the Stargate Project, a $20 million research program sponsored by the U.S. Federal Government to determine any potential military application of psychic phenomena. The program was terminated in 1995, citing a lack of documented evidence that the program had any value to the intelligence community.[5]
One of the early experiments was lauded by proponents as having improved the methodology of remote viewing testing and as raising future experimental standards, but also criticized as leaking information to the participants by inadvertently leaving clues.[6] Some later experiments had negative results when these clues were eliminated.[7]
Remote viewing, like other forms of extra-sensory perception, is generally considered as pseudoscience [8] due to the lack of replicable results, and of a positive theory that explains the outcomes of experiments.[9][10][11]

Remote viewing - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Oh, it's worse than that!

Alongside that monumental waste of the taxpayers money was a program developed to see if the effects of an atomic bomb could be transfered to someplace else. The idea was to set off a bomb in a safe, secure location (such as White Sands), and "send" the destructive effects to, say, Moscow. It would preclude the necessity for a delivery vehicle.

I believe I once heard the good Major comment that he'd been involved in that too.

"Evasiveness" is easy to create. Did you notice how evasive Glenn Beck has been about that teenage girl that he raped and murdered in 1990?

President Obama has handled the whole birther issue masterfully. I wouldn't have him change a thing.

Only idiots are perplexed by his response.

The last time I listened to Coast to Coast AM, they were taking calls from people who purported to be from other dimensions. It's a fun listen but it's loon central.

President Obama is a US citizen. We just don't know how he became one.

I am now convinced that 0bama was in fact never actually born. Rather, he was made in a lab by a joint effort of Dow Chemical, the Rand Corp and CBS under the direction of the Trilateral Commission. He has been programmed to bring down the American people and hand us over to the New World Order.

I'm sorry but this is hysterical. He won, get over it. You or anyone who wants to defeat Obama in 2012 will do much better focusing on the issues. What a shame and embarrassment birthers are to our country.

Just because somebody was born in Kenya doesn't make them an illegal immigrant. I have friends who were born in other countries who are legal citizens here and are probably more American than a lot of posters in this forum.
