"The Extended Mind: Recent Experimental Evidence" Google Tech Talks (September 2, 2008) "We have been brought up to believe that the mind is located inside the head.

And people's intentions can be detected by animals from miles away. The commonest kind of non-local interaction mental influence occurs in connection with telephone calls, where most people have had the experience of thinking of someone shortly before they ring.
