I sincerely appreciate the insight provided by Malchat and Jim-Callahan. At this point I think I need to refine my thinking along the lines of plot and purpose. Once that is done then I can go onto methodology, which for me, will be the most difficult part.

I don't think method will be as difficult as you think once you have refined your thinking.
If you need help please do not hesitate to PM me or contact me via my website. -Jim

Here I am...
Last week in this thread I mentioned a little online or over-the phone experiment using a watch that I perform for prospective clients, that doesn’t use internet technology as its method. Several people wrote in saying they’d be interested in having me try this online at the Café. When I perform this for clients, it’s fairly straightforward: I sent them an email. The body of the email tells them to set their wrist-watch to a random time, following a certain protocol (more on that later), and once they’ve done that, I send them a second email. The second email predicts the Hour (not the minutes) at which they’ve randomly set their watch. This gets a very strong reaction. It can also be done over the telephone, in real time, without the use of emails. As I said, there is no electronic manipulation or internet trickery involved. For our purposes here, I thought that, since I don’t want to be doing this dozens of times, I’ll take the first several people who respond now, and try to use as many of you as possible. You’ll post at various times throughout each experiment, letting Café members see the process and the results. We’ll take each experiment individually. If the participants are from different time zones, I’m happy to accommodate you and we can try to schedule the experiments to work with your schedules as much as possible. The following is the protocol that each experiment will take, just so that you all know what to expect, and so you know that I’m not changing things as we go along… The Experiment Each of us has an internal clock that is precise beyond imagining. My own internal clock allows me, just before I go to sleep, to merely think of a time that I'd like to wake up, and invariably, without the aid of an alarm clock, I do. This experiment is an attempt to synchronize the internal clocks of another person. To affect your subconscious so that I can, in turn, control your behaviour. If I'm successful, I will be able to predict the hour that the participants will set their watches to in the privacy of their own homes or offices. Each experiment will use two volunteers. One will be the subject of the experiment, the other will be the Official Judge. The judge is the person who will keep my Prediction and who will reveal it at the end of the experiment. They will also rule upon the experiment’s success or failure, and will post the results on the Café. Each experiment will consist of four steps: Step One In order to get a baseline reading of the individual's "internal clock", I’ll ask the participant to have with them a working wrist watch or even a pocket watch. This watch must have an hour hand and a minute hand. I will ask each subject to close their eyes and imagine that it is Christmas Day (or Hanukkah, or whatever holiday you prefer). In your mind, you open a small present, and find inside a gold wristwatch. I will ask you what time is showing on your imaginary watch. Once you post this imaginary time on the Café you are to set your real watch at that exact time, and we will move on to Step Two. Step Two I will now send my Prediction to the trusted person who is chosen to Officiate, the person who will act as judge as to the success or failure of the experiment. Upon receiving the prediction, they are to print a hard copy onto paper, so that there is no question of electronic manipulation. Once they have done that, they will post on the Café that all is in order, and that the subject of the experiment should begin Step Three. Step Three The participating subject, alone in a room, will take their wristwatch or pocket watch that has previously been set to the time on their imaginary Christmas watch, and pull out the stem, assuring themselves that the stem is out and the hands will turn if they turn the stem. Reset the real watch’s hands to your imaginary watch's time again, and turn your real watch face down in your hands. This next part sounds absurd, I know, but it is absolutely vital to the success of the experiment. Out loud, and not just in their minds, you must start singing the Chorus of the song: Jingle Bells. I know! It sounds crazy, but humour me. For those who don't know the lyrics of the Chorus, it goes: "Jingle Bells, Jingle Bells, Jingle all the way, Oh what fun it is to ride In a one-horse open sleigh, Oh! Jingle Bells, Jingle Bells, Jingle all the way, Oh what fun it is to ride In a one-horse open sleigh!" As you begin singing out loud, you must, at the precise time that you sing the very first note, begin to wind the stem of the watch. You can choose whether you want to turn the stem forwards or backwards, but once you have started in one direction, you cannot change your mind and start going in the other direction half way through. You are, however, invited to turn the stem at whatever pace is comfortable to you, be that fast or slow. It's your choice. But you must sing the song as you do it. When you reach the last word of the song, you are to immediately stop winding. You will then look at the time at which you've stopped, write it down, and alert the Café that you are ready to continue to Step Four. Step Four The Offical will now post on the Café. Each time, it can be the choice of the Official as to whether he announces my Prediction first, or the participant announces their stopped-at time first. In any case, without any input or questions asked by me, both My Prediction and the time will be announced on the Café. I'm hoping that I will have correctly predicted the Hour (not the minutes) at which the Participant has chosen to stop. The officials will keep a running tally of my correct hits (or the misses, should they occur), with the actual stop times posted alongside my predictions. I’m ready. Do we have volunteers? - entity

Anyone else? I'll do this a maximum of 5 times. That means we need about 10 volunteers.

I'd prefer not to do anything by pm, lest skeptical minds think I'm cooking things up with you. Everyone involved should state clearly their impartiality.

Sorry Jim. Your impartiality has already been compromised by your earlier prediction that I won't succeed. I'm afraid I can't trust you to follow the protocol and report the results honestly.
Anyone else? -entity Posted: Nov 20, 2006 1:18pm Icy has pm'd me to say he wants to participate. Please post publicly, don't pm me. - entity

My wife is out tonight. I think I can safely sing pre-season Jingle Bells without losing any cool points.
And for the official record, nothing was cooked up by PM - I'm as clueless as the rest of the participants.

Then you prove the prediction correct.
