Hey, you there. Yes, you.
If what I say sounds like the teacher from Charlie Brown (Wah wahh woohh wuh waah), then you should try college. It's fun, and only costs you your soul and several tens of thousands of dollars.  “I agree that by the standards of any other area of science that remote viewing is proven“ - Richard Wiseman Let's make directional hypotheses, test them repeatedly, replicate experiments, and publish results! Yay, science!

For every person who reads this valuable book there are hundreds of naïve souls who would prefer to have their spines tingled by a sensational but worthless potboiler by some hack journalist of the paranormal. You who now read these sentences join a small but wiser minority. Martin Gaardner (Psychology of the Psychic)

No, actually that is because 99% of your "taste" perception is actually smell. Ever eaten food with a total headcold? It tastes totally different. I can "taste" stuff in my mouth all the time by smelling it. Sometimes it's totally unwanted and it totally throws me off.
A better example is when you put someone's arm in a box with a mirror and a fake arm, so it looks like the fake arm continues where the real arm left off. Then you have someone simultaneously tickle the fake hand (so you can see it) and the real hand (which is hidden). Do this sort of thing for a few minutes. Then whack the fake hand with a hammer.  Hey, you there. Yes, you.
