Lotto is one of the best real-life psi experiments in the world. If the
right guesses do not exceed the random level, it is really in vain to
advertise for precognition and PK as parapsychologists do. There is often
very strong motivation to win, public drawing of lots to enhance PK, rather
good randomization method and huge amounts of recorded guesses.

The results of this widespread experimentation are easy to analyze: count
only all the guesses and the guesses in different winning categories and
calculate easy statistics. Very cheap and powerful research. Why can we not
read these results weekly in newspapers and later scientific reviews in
parapsychological journals?

I have met a woman who told she dreamed about lotto numbers, and all she
could remember were right. I have also heard that one winner has told he got
the right row in a dream.

I asked the Finnish lotto company and they told they do not gather the
necessary numbers for statistics.
