RemoteViewing

I came across a web site that for $98 Dollars will sell you six cassette tapes to teach "remote viewing". For those who don't know, remote viewing is a technique to access subconscious and universal mind information in space and time so that present, past, and future events are revealed. Although this sounds like it came out of a Harry Potter film, the techniques are supposedly used by spy agencies of various countries.

I am convinced that by paying close attention to our perceptions and by using our power of deduction we can have a greater awareness of our surroundings and could even make some insightful predictions. However, remote viewing seems to be a fancy way of doing thought experiments, or brainstorming about something that you know nothing about. Any "findings" produced through remote viewing without observations or background knowledge cannot be much better than wild guesses.
