So what is the hypothesis for close relatedness? How does that affect telepathy? Even if people are close, the study involves unbiased simple memory tasks. The relatedness shouldn't play a part in LSD induced telepathy.

I understand the feeling of telepathy JD initially posted about. But I don't think this study will be definitive, due to one reason: they were having a conversation. My thinking is that the neurological cascade that occurs within the minds of close people are very similar, since they are both engaged in a shared conversation. I guess what I'm saying is that telepathy isn't real, just a word to describe that feeling. Just my 2c.

Regardless, if you guys are serious about this study, I can also help out with the data. Off the top of my head, I can think of 3 pairs of very close people who would be more than willing to partake. All we have to do is standardise everything; the memory tasks need to be the same, the dosage of LSD needs to be the same, and the experiment needs to be conducted at roughly the same time, i.e. when the subjects are peaking.
