Telepathy half the world away

Nope. Has not been proven because the experiments are constructed in a manner which fails to sufficiently define the effect[/u]. That is, the effect is so ambiguous that we can not rule out selection or cherry picking. The great thing about science is that it throws out bullshit experiments which do not serve to promote knowledge advancement.

You act as an authority on the subject. That kind of attitude is consistent with skeptics without experience.

Stating that being able to consistently skew repeatable, mathematical results as not being proof (and instead labelling them in a derogatory manner) especially considering your high intelligence, seemed more argumentative than considered. The tests were conducted using strict protocols, just as any other scientific experiment. Is science not based on repeatable, controllable results?

Why do you think that testing the effect of ESP us both "bullshit" and in no way helpful to evolution?

Never said that about *testing* and that's a rather silly interpretation if I may say so. Your hangups on the subject are evident. Actual knowledge advancement is adequately accommodated by scientific protocol. The interpretation of evidence submitted so far has not been particularly compelling nor enlightening on the subject - the evidence is just not available *period*. This is a simple matter of fact if you ever bothered to study the subject. There is a rather huge gulf of value between in the application of rational, unbiased evaluation involved in scientific study and mere anecdotes. It's no coincidence that knowledge advancement always requires actual effort, not flighty notions and personal wishes.
