      This is obviously an offshoot of PEAR. while officially called the Global
      Consciousness Project, it is also known as the EGG project which 
      apparently stands for "Electrogaiagram".

      CIA-Initiated Remote Viewing
      At Stanford Research Institute
      In July 1995 the CIA declassified, and approved for release, documents 
      revealing its sponsorship in the 1970s of a program at Stanford Research 
      Institute in Menlo Park, CA, to determine whether such phenomena as remote 
      viewing "might have any utility for intelligence collection" [1]. Thus 
      began disclosure to the public of a two-decade-plus involvement of the 
      intelligence community in the investigation of so-called parapsychological 
      or psi phenomena. Presented here by the program's Founder and first 
      Director (1972 - 1985) is the early history of the program, including 
      discussion of some of the first, now declassified, results that drove 
      early interest. 


      PEAR'S *initial* link to SRI
      See linking page to PEAR's initial meeting with the SRI staff in 1977 from 
      which the framework for their own continued studies was constructed. "That 
      winter, I happened to be on leave at Stanford, where more interest is 
      shown in this field than at most universities. Carol was able to join me 
      there for a few weeks, and together we talked with faculty and staff, and 
      worked with a small research group at the nearby SRI International 
      laboratory." Dr. Jahn

      More confirmed connections between Esalen & SRI and .......


      After acknowledging that RV experiments were performed at Esalen and that 
      "Russell Targ's group at SRI International was supported by CIA and 
      defense contracts for most of its existence", Dean Radin comments on the 
      first Esalen meetings on this subject more than twenty years ago.


      ".. we know that feedback is not necessary to do remote viewing. They did 
      experiments with Marilyn and Hella in the Big House where they would 
      describe pictures shown on a slide projector in a sealed-up bedroom that 
      neither they nor the experimenters would ever know what they were. This 
      was triple-blind study: the eventual judge would only get four slides and 
      a description, in a randomized order, and asked to chronicle hits. The 
      researchers and subjects only got back the statistics, which were quite 
      good, 4 out of 6 matched for first place. Another experiment suggested by 
      an Esalen meeting involved six targets, one of which had a 50% probability 
      of being shown (#1-5) versus the other five with only 10% probability each 
      (#6, #7, etc.). Would the presence of a highly-likely target interfere 
      with describing a low-probability target when it was chosen? The answer 
      was negative. Psychically, what you see is what you get and is not 
      affected by what is probable. (Dean Radin, though, did an experiment on 
      his computer with precisely the opposite results, showing that the 
      precognition was heavily biased towards the more probable future rather 
      than the actual). Finally, the silver futures experiment also came out of 
      Esalen meetings. Ed May & Stephan Schwartz first conceived of the 
      associative remote viewing, but Keith Harary & Russell performed the 
      experiment."
