Schizophrenia is genetic too. Might be a brain stutter, like deja vu.

You understand deja vu? Link here en.wikipedia.org...
My idea is that in cases like this & deja vu, even though you receive the actual voice input later, your mind misfires & implants the false memory that you have already heard your friend's words before your friend spoke.
The only way you can disprove that this misfiring is happening, is to actually write it down physically in a diary, timestamp it & then check back when the event occurs.
Otherwise it is very much like deja vu & your brain is deceiving you. Unfortunately, I know of no way to stop your own brain misfiring.

I'm just trying to say, its nothing like that, I actually know what the person is about to say before he/she actually says it. It sounds silly, and I'm not trying to trick myself into doing it, but it happens all the time, I know the facts on Deja Vu and how its not real, they've proofed it wrong, but this is much diffrent.

Well the only way you can prove your ability is to write down the thoughts beforehand, timestamp it and then verify it afterwards. Otherwise my scenario is the only plausible cause.
Because in my scenario, there is no way for yourself to spot what is wrong with the situation at all. You won't even be aware of "tricking" yourself because the brain misfires & labels your recent memory of what your friends have said as being a prior memory.

My questions to the board are:
1) Do you think this a relatively new phenomenon, or have there been throughout history reports of people having extraordinary abilities like the ones I described?
2) If this is not a new phenomenon, would you say that there seems to be a sharp increase in the amount of people who can do this in the modern era, or even in the last 25 years?
3) Does the Powers That Be take this seriously at all? I know that in Russia & China there have been extensive studies & training of these people. Why not in the West? Or is it going on and we don't know it?
4) Should people with these abilities stick together & form online/realtime support groups/communities, or is it better to remain scattered & not attract attention? Or should people with these abilities be "outing" themselves on public boards at all? Or am I being paranoid? Or am I not being paranoid?
I think in the next 25 years these questions and this topic is going to be a very big issue in the world.
