Approved For Release agp mare 6-00788R001800210001-0 IX THE FUTURE (U) (S/NF) As previously mentioned, the psychoenergetics research program at SRI International was examined by three eminent scientists in 1983. In their report, they assess the technology, and they identify elements that are necessary in any future program. The major points in their assessment are » Implications are revolutionary * Merits continued funding in the national interest * National impact is profound * Evidence too impressive to dismiss * No evidence of dishonesty ¢« Harassment must stop * Lack of physical model does not preclude existence. It is clear that this panel of scientists considers psychoenergetics to be an enormously important field. Their recommended actions are * Confirm or deny existence of psi phenomena * Initiate a five-to-ten-year program * Involve additional labs * Continue training program. The panel advocates a five to ten year program using multiple laboratories. A report has already been prepared that describes a long-term program and integrates R&D and intelligence into a single unified DoD program. Addi- tional laboratories have been contacted and are under consideration for contracts in FY 1985. The amount of funding available will be the key factor in determining which and how many laboratories will be contracted. Those being considered are shown below: * McDonnell Douglas * Mind Science Foundation * Lawrence Livermore Laboratories 45 SECRET Approved For Release 2002/05/17 : CIA-RDP96-00788R001800210001-0
