In the course of their ten ‘out-of-body perceptual state’ experiments, ASPR attempted to locate hidden items on their premises, using clairvoyant perception. They succeeded.

[…] the United States? Is the very existence of the CIA and its related agencies compatible with our democracy? Secret intelligence services have long been assumed to be hidden players wherever the Great Game of international politics is played. And so they are.

[…] we focus on what is being suppressed by these successive alterations, we arrive at a working hypothesis of what actually may have happened and has since been hidden.
