A webpage that reads your mind?
I just found this neat webpage that can "read your mind". Just follow the directions found on the page.
http://sprott.physics.wisc.edu/pickover/esp.html
I found out how it works after five or six runs - can you figure it out? If you do, please don't post any hints or answers here.
:i got it: |

It took me about 20 seconds, but like MPSmith, I think I've seen it before.

Well, it's also the computer scientist in me that refused to believe what I was seeing. :lol:

Nope. I can say what I did, but you said not to give ideas away...

Every time I chose "a card" it never came back with the one I said out loud.

Through the "magic powers of ESP," your card is "removed" from the results; the card you selected is not supposed to be there in the end.

I remember that site from a while ago...
What really worries me is that some people are "frightened" or "scared" because they think it's real... :roll:
