York Dobyns

York Dobyns earned his Ph.D. in physics in 1987 and promptly went to work studying the nature of consciousness. He spent almost 20 years in the Princeton Engineering Anomalies Research program (website still maintained at http://www.princeton.edu/~pear) as part of a research team exploring the effect of human intention on physical processes, and the ability of human minds to obtain information at a distance without use of the known senses. Early in that time he became aware of the existence of modern Neopaganism, and considers himself to have become a practicing eclectic Wiccan in 1992. He became active in the Covenant of Unitarian Universalist Pagans in the late 1990s and has written several well-received readings for Pagan-oriented UU services. ydobyns@Princeton.EDU
