Because I don't want the publicity. :-)

Ok, I'll accept that one...

P.S. any idea what the winning lottery numbers are going to be? I will be more than happy to split the winnings with you so you won't have to get up in front of the cameras. :-D

[nopardons]

LOL...I have no idea. What abilities I have,don't include that kind of thing.

[TAquinas]

"OK, what is a remote viewing periscope~"

I think it's a highly sophisticated scientific equipment used to view into the future and invented by, guess what, Sentinelese scientists.

[TAquinas]

"I know this sounds crazy, but I wonder."

Stop wondering; it is crazy.

[killjoy]

LOL...I have no idea. What abilities I have,don't include that kind of thing.

Damn... well when your superhero powers get better, let me know.

[nopardons]

I don't have "superhero powers" at all,just more abilities than you do. Now,if you need someone to match colors for you,or figure out how to cook something you ate and don't know how to make...then I'm your girl. :-)

And I have never heard of anyone with ESP or other kinds of ability, win a LOTTERY.

[killjoy]

Now,if you need someone to match colors for you

Are you good with color correcting scanned slides in Photoshop? If so, send me mail. :-D

[nopardons]

What...you want me to work for nothing? It sounds as if you have a gigantic pile of messed of pictures. LOL

[Smokin' Joe]

I think these abilities may be present in most folks, or even latent, just supressed.

I couldn't taste food without a mouthful until I went a week without it. Then, I dreamed of food, in color, and tasted it all... Waking up wasn't so pleasant.

I might have developed the smell ability, but other factors interfered, and it is just as well.

[nopardons]

But can you taste food now,when you think of it;when you want to?

What about hearing someone's voice,on recall and matching colors without a swatch? :-)

[Veto!]

bio-feedback stuff. I've never done that either, as I am not comfortable at the thought of letting go.

Hmmmm. but you're quite knowledgeable.

I was on assignment, writing for a magazine about biofeedback, and interviewed some physicians who were using it with patients. One offered to hook me up, saying of course I'd need training before I could get any results. Hah! I aced it from the start, then had a lot of fun with subsequent docs. Anyway, I don't think I was letting go; on the contrary, I was very specifically telling those machines exactly what to do. The mind lead, the body followed,, the machine took note. I'm usually a type-A too, but enjoy experimenting with Powers of Mind.

[Smokin' Joe]

Voices, sometimes (it depends on whose voice), sometimes vividly.

I definitely cannot do the color matching. My wife assures me that I see colors differently from her.

[Smokin' Joe]

Food! Yes! I couldn't before I went without food for a week, but by the end of the week, I could recall flavors very well. IMHO, this made me aware of the ability.

[nopardons]

We all have different abilities. :-)

[Smokin' Joe]

That is one of the things which makes life fun.

[nopardons]

And interesting.

Reading winds, waves may have saved ancient tribes on remote Indian islands

PORT BLAIR, India (AP) - Two days after a tsunami thrashed the island where his ancestors have lived for tens of thousands of years, a lone tribesman stood naked on the beach and looked up at a hovering coast guard helicopter.

He then took out his bow and shot an arrow toward the rescue chopper.

It was a signal the Sentinelese have sent out to the world for millennia: They want to be left alone. Isolated from the rest of the world, the tribesmen needed to learn nature's sights, sounds and smells to survive.

Government officials and anthropologists believe that ancient knowledge of the movement of wind, sea and birds may have saved the five indigenous tribes on the Indian archipelago of Andaman and Nicobar islands from the tsunami that hit the Asian coastline Dec. 26.

"They can smell the wind. They can gauge the depth of the sea with the sound of their oars. They have a sixth sense which we don't possess," said Ashish Roy, a local environmentalist and lawyer who has called on the courts to protect the tribes by preventing their contact with the outside world.

The tribes live the most ancient, nomadic lifestyle known to man, frozen in their Paleolithic past. Many produce fire by rubbing stones, fish and hunt with bow and arrow and live in leaf and straw community huts. And they don't take kindly to intrusions.

Anil Thapliyal, a commander in the Indian coast guard, said he spotted the lone tribesman on the island of Sentinel, a 60-square-kilometre key, on Dec. 28.

"There was a naked Sentinelese man," Thapliyal told The Associated Press. "He came out and shot an arrow at the helicopter."

According to varying estimates, there are only about 400 to 1,000 members alive today from the Great Andamanese, Onges, Jarawas, Sentinelese and Shompens. Some anthropological DNA studies indicate the generations may have spanned back 70,000 years. They originated in Africa and migrated to India through Indonesia, anthropologists say.

It appears that many tribesman fled the shores well before the waves hit the coast, where they would typically be fishing at this time of year.

After the tsunami, local officials spotted 41 Great Andamanese, out of 43 in a 2001 Indian census, who had fled the submerged portion of their Strait Island. They also reported seeing 73 Onges, out of 98 in the census, who fled to highland forests in Dugong Creek on the Little Andaman island, or Hut Bay, a government anthropologist said.

However, the fate of the three other tribes won't be known until officials complete a survey of the remote islands this week, he said. The government reconnaissance mission will also assess how the ecosystem - most crucially, the water sources - has been damaged.

Taking surveys of these people is dangerous work.

The more than 500 islands across a 8,300-square-kilometre chain in the southern reaches of the Bay of Bengal appear at first glance to be a tropical paradise. But even one of the earliest visitors, Marco Polo, called the atols "the land of the head hunters." Roman geographer Claudius Ptolemaeus called the Andamans the "islands of the cannibals."

You jump to conclusions and assume far too much. None of it though admits an existence of a spirit which speaks volumes.
