I'm not supporting jumping to psychic conclusions, but I don't see anything on that page that specifically refutes it. So while it may be very unlikely (which is just a prior based on my own subjective experiences), psychic phenomenon can indeed be scientifically studied, and is studied as well. You might be interested in watching a Google tech talk by Dean Randin (also wrote a book): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qw_O9Qiwqew http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qw_O9Qiwqew He seems to have been pretty rigorous when investigating possible subconscious psychic activity in regular humans. And it does seem like most people dismiss such things out of hand, which is the very antithesis of scientific thought. Tangentially, I don't think we can call any brain state "well understood", never mind hypnagogia.
