SG1 I Dear
I am writing to request that you return to us the original tape
casettes of the Price-crane experiment.
SG11 In our original agreement with =we were to archive all of the
original data in our files so that it would continue to be available
for further research., and we were to supply =with duplicates. In SG11
the case of these Price tapes, however, we were in a time bind and
therefore submitted our originals. If you need copies for your files,
I am certainly willing to take responsibility to duplicate them for you.
The reason I wish to get them back, beyond having complete data in our
archives, is that we believe we have developed a set of linguistic
indicators which permit us to begin to discriminate as to what is
correct and what is incorrect in remote viewing transcripts. We are
now in the process of checking our hypothesis by passing old trans-
cripts through our discrimination sieve, and we are especially anxious
to reexamine our best transcripts from the past.
I believe there is nothin igular in our request, as you can
SG11 determine by talking withELrand we sorely need the data to help us
evaluate our new discrimination procedures.
With best regards,
