It&#x27;s pointless to argue, but here&#x27;s another anecdote for the files...<p>One day, out of the blue, I had a vivid daydream.  James Brown lay dead on the floor and three Gospel singers were wailing over him in the old way, mourning and crying out.  That was December 24th, 2006, and I can be so certain because the next day was the day James Brown died.<p>It so happens that I am a huge James Brown fan.  It would have been very hard for me to deal with his passing but some <i>grace</i> granted me a tiny kindness and eased my sorrow.<p>Now, these are incontrovertible <i>facts</i>, however subjective, and admitting such doesn&#x27;t mean we must now believe in astrology or anything like that.  But how could you expect to reproduce something like this in a lab?   Nevertheless an attitude that dismisses such extremely common incidents seems to me to be unscientific.
