      I agree with the counting issue. Actually I have already modified the experiment so that each side of the die has a different color (since, in my opinion, its easier to recognize contrasting colors as opposed to counting little dots).

      One reason why I didn't go with trying to observe something I could not have known before hand is because its an "all or nothing" situation. For example, at one time I thought of having someone write a random 5 or 6 digit number on a piece of paper, and then allowing me to see if I can observe it accurately out of body.

      But the odds are so steep that this sort of approach would most likely not "pick up" on less astronomical (but still very relevant) statistical anomalies. For example, if you do 100 dice trials and get a success rate of 35%, thats very relevant considering that on chance alone, someone should only be successful about 16% of the time. If you try to guess a 6 digit number, in order to get an equal success rate (35%) you would have to get the number right 1 time in 350,000 trials.

      See what I mean?
