28683.000518&ELEMENT_SET=DECL It is the responsibility of each node 108 to preserve a predictable correspondence between a slot number and its occupying isochronous symbol 316, as the isochronous symbol 316 is forwarded from an inbound lane of the node 108 to an outbound lane of the node 108.

JASPR Article But the results of a number of parapsychological experiments have suggested that experimenter effects may also be psi-mediated; that is, the subject may respond to the wishes and needs of the experimenter over and beyond what he is told by the experimenter and under conditions which rule out the possibility of sense-mediation.
