Rupert Sheldrake, a well known and prestigious scientist (check out wikipedia) did a double-blind in which people were asked whether or not they were being stared at from behind. Apparently the results were 60% true - well above the 50% associated with chance. Does anyone know if this has been addressed by the scientific community?
Thanks!

Crackpot he may be, but have they ever addressed his results?

It's never been proven. He's out of the scientific mainstream a.k.a. eccentric crackpot
Editted: Do we need to disprove the Flat Earth Society's beliefs?
