This was in the paper; what do you think? I don’t see anything in the Archives that covers it.

Is that true, that thought waves travel faster outside the body? How could that be? If you want to look at the article, it’s in the April 18, 2000 Weekly World News. (Sorry, it’s not posted online yet. They’re always a couple of weeks behind.)
P.S. I notice they don’t carry your column–perhaps you might give them a jingle…?

Of course they do. That’s why when you have a good idea, someone else says they have already thought of it. You thoughts travel outside your body and reach the other person faster than they can reach your mouth.
For anyone who hasn’t had the pleasure of perusing that Pulitzer-class periodical, take a look at the Weekly World News: http://www.weeklyworldnews.com/

Of course! Brain waves in the body have to go through all that squishy grey matter, but outside they are transmitted through the ether at the speed of light to the alien overmind.
When will we come to our senses and realize that The Weekly World News is the premier news service in the world? I mean the New York Times and Washington Post didn’t even get a sniff of this story. And they call themselves newspapers.
Ummm… thought waves? I don’t think there is any scientific basis for thought waves… now brain waves are a real thing, but they are limited to that media we call the brain.
For reference material pertaining to the Weekl World Nes, please refer to So I married and Axe Murderer starring Mike Myers. There is some profound insight therewithin.

Cecil, is this true? Wait, don’t leave!
Cecil, space aliens destroyed the 250-foot Rand-Wilson radio telescope near Johannesburg–they’ve got photographs! and everything!
…and the surgeons who fixed the little boy who was born with his head on backwards (there’s a photo of that, too–it must be real!), and did you know that there’s a 600-year-old secret ceremonial Indian dance that transforms young men into horses, and–oh, Cecil! a deadly fingernail fungus is spreading across Russia, and a 5-year-old girl in Stockholm is the reincarnation of William Shakespeare, and teens are snorting Ritalin for a cheap high, and the miracle cures of the floating nun, and, and, and…
Cecil, I’m depending on you, please don’t leave, please, come back…
Please…
