As me and DaMod stated earlier in the thread:
DOUBT and FEAR.
I see your shield is way up.

Ok, if you are that sure, why don't you try a real experiment? Make sure that there is no possibillity for any external influence, whatsoever. Maybe buy one of these souvenir glass balls, with the snow in. They are totally sealed and you can try to raise the snow in the water. Or go to a glass manufacturer and ask for a ball of glass with a psi wheel in, i am sure they can do it. Then isolate the ball against heat and film the whole thing, that should convince most people.
But me, personally, i'd be pretty convinced when you move a pen inside a sealed box. Just make sure that noone can cry FRAUD, like when there may be a string attached to the pen. Just close all the loopholes.
But i doubt that you can do this. Seriously, people heavily rely on wishful thinking and do really bad observations.
On the other hand, when you don't appreciate sceptics input, i won't rain your parade, as the other guy said.
peace n beauty

Hummm coney, I don't really think i am qualified to comment upon that, but....
for me thinking (lightly, as if I was dancing.. does that make sense?) the word "spin" and "faster" and sorta looking at it worked.... not sure if I made thought the word, or imagined the wheel going faster.... but I kinda looked at one side of the wheel and it went faster. I guess... it kinda came from the back of my head, now that I am thinking about it.... I thought "spin" but also had the idea of the motion from be back/center of my head.
But in all honesty for me this morning I just sorta... shut my eyes and relaxed and "felt"... kinda visualized/imagined/felt the energy leaving my hands. I didn't think about getting the thing to spin; it just did. Rather fast and smoothly, too.... I was rather surprised at the ease I needed to spin it... just a minute or so relaxed and it was POW spinning.
So much for the "it ain't real" comments. just try for yourself ^.^

Long story short, I closed my eyes and then relaxed... and IT SPUN AROUND AND AROUND AND AROUND. Did that a few times, and then got smart and slowly opened my eyes, and it still spun (I wasn't shocked), so then I thought, "speed up" and it did. Then I realized I was very hungry and got up to get some breakfast.
HOW COOL IS THAT????? THANK YOU VERY MUCH, DAMOD!!!

Yes. Healthy skepticism is great. Thing is, when you add complexity
to any experiment you CHANGE the whole thing... so, therefore, what
we acchieved on the past setup experiment works and now, with new
parameters barely works or dont work immediately.

I think your heater is on and that makes it move. When you put your hand near it, the additional heat moves it faster. No offence
Check if the wheel does not move for at least 20 min

I can move psi wheel without hands from over a meter away, BUT it's much easier and spins more if I put my hands closer.
Do you guys think this is a state of mind? OR that extra energy comes from the hand making it easier?

If you think energy from you is doing this, where is your limit? Could be
now a meter away? If you continue with this mindset, when things
STOPS working, you will "blame" the energy and say thats the max you
can do...
