I have been a scientist, really!  Observations of natural facts, leading to testable hypotheses and theories: The Scientific Method! It has given us our modern world. But, I have had enough uncanny experiences to convince me there is more than we can see, a hidden dimension. I refer to these experiences as “Woo-Woo!” One of my favorite literary passages is Hamlet down in the grave with “Poor Yorick’s” skull, speaking up to Horatio,

“There are more things in heaven and earth, Horatio, than are dreamt of in your philosophy”.

It was 1967. A group of us were on South Beach in Miami. I suddenly felt a presence, I cannot describe in words the feeling, but my brain interpreted it thus:

“Someone is here”.

I don’t know why but I just kept looking north along the beach. You know what someone looks like when they are far away, small, indistinct, unrecognizable. They grow in size in your vision as they get closer. There is this person in a red boxer bathing suit, no shirt, no shoes. My eyes fixed on him. As he came within earshot I called out,

“You’re Timothy Leary, aren’t you?”

“I am!”

He was. He joined us. I do not remember how long he sat talking with us. Woo-Woo!
