However Mike should not state that the Karolinska has reproduced one of our previous technique. An attempt was made on a different biological system than ours and too many variables forced them to abandon the project. So, the name of this Institute must not be mentioned. Upon completion of the present replication job, a scientific report will be submitted to a major journal. I have no intention whatsoever to deal with people foreign to the normal scientific process.

Thank you for posting my letter. Dr Benveniste, Thank you for your comments and for the clarification of the situation with the Karolinska Institute. I understand your reticence to deal with James Randi because of your differences in the past, but I believe you are both seeking the truth even if you choose different paths to get there. I look forward to seeing the results of your research when it is published, While I am sceptical of your theories because of what I know of science, being sceptical implies being open to possibilities and not just knowing everything in advance. I believe that showing this correspondence will help visitors to the site to understand the issues better.
