Psychics determined to find Bin Laden

I would have thought his whereabouts would have been freely indulged by hundreds of public-spirited psychs by now...

Isn't this silence lovely?

I knew you would respond with this exact response. I sealed it in an envelope I mailed to myself 3 weeks a go....only Im haven't received it yet.
 
From the article:
Newly declassified documents revealed that the MoD conducted an experiment to see if volunteers could 'see' objects hidden inside an envelope.

Well, there's the problem right there. Osama Bin Laden probably isn't hiding in an envolope.

In order to know that he is not in an envelope, you must have information as to his whereabouts.

Please put your orange jumpsuit on and wait quietly for the police to arrive to question you further. Try and not carry out any suspicious acts that may result in them needing to shoot you several times in the head (sitting down, picking up a newspaper - you know the sort of thing).
 
From the article:

And Mr Pope said: "I don't think this was a waste of public money. Many people will say so, but I think it is marvellous that the Government is prepared to think outside the box.

"And this is as outside the box as it gets."

Mr. Pope, please do this and seal it up... preferably without any air holes. :boxedin:
 
There is a point here - what's the currently posted award for locating OBL? $20 million? Why is it taking them so long? Why aren't all those patriotic American psychics busy finding the man for the good of their country? Not only would they get $20 mill (my guesstimate), they'd be able to ride the gravy train for the rest of their lives, get famous, get respect - and all without having to take the Randi Challenge!
What's keeping them? In this case the "Oh I don't need/want/work-for money" excuse won't wash - it's their patriotic duty.
 
they are thinking outside of a box because the box is a terror target on a color terror target.

What ever happaned to the colored terror alerts? Can we get a psychic to find them or what?

Good question. Now, what could be the possible answer to that question? Hm...
 
I realise they found nothing of value in their "research", but for the love of god, haven't they heard of The Men Who Stare at Goats? I thought the US gov was daft for trying this 50 years ago.

Let's replace our dissenting senior officers with psychics. I can see it now...

Does this have something to do with the color of bin Laden's aura? Maybe he needs an aura cleansing.
 
Hey, what's so difficult here? Even with my limited psychic ability I can tell you that Bin Laden is near some rocks. Check out those rocks- you'll find him.

One wonders why they aren't trying to prognosticate the next big terrorist attack?

Wait, maybe they are.

Hmmm. I suppose this is evidence the West has done a good job preventing it? :boggled:
 
Another triumph...

Jeez, the Germans tried the same thing back in World War II. They rounded up a bunch of "psychics" and told them to predict what was going to happen in the war. They realized they had a good deal going, so they issued very vague predictions and asked for more money and time.

Then in May 1941, Hess flew to England, and in his letter to Hitler saying he was going out of town for a little while, Hess said that a psychic had advised him to fly to England to make peace.

Hitler ordered all of Germany's psychics and astrologers rounded up and jailed. The Gestapo got right on it, and collared the lot. Josef Goebbels wrote in his diary that not one single psychic arrested had a premonition that they were going down. All the psychics were taken by surprise. "A poor advertisement for their profession!" Goebbels wrote.

For once he said something truthful.

70 years later, and the British MI guys can't figure that out.

Well, the psychics may not have located Osama, but I'll bet they all had interesting theories on Jennifer Aniston's next boyfriend and career move.
 
The MoD tried to recruit 12 'known' psychics who advertised their abilities on the Internet, but when they all refused they were forced to use 'novice' volunteers.

Gee. I wonder why.
