   Also, even if it is all a hallucination or dream, that's not to say that   
   it couldn't conceivably be a hallucination or dream incorporating some   
   sort of psychic perception such as precognition.  This would seem to be   
   the first paranormal possibility to consider, if sufficient evidence   
   comes along to warrant going beyond mundane explanations.  It would be   
   interesting to see if an experient who got a lot of verifiable "hits"   
   stopped getting them if he stopped being informed as to whether or not he   
   had been successful.
