Helen.. you said about that article:
"My observation is that there are some people who have precognitive skills, some acknowledge them and some try to ignore them,   etc.

Now, that article is pretty long and tediously technical, but as far as I can tell from it, the author merely suggests the scientific version of 'keeping an open mind and looking for evidence'... which is always in order.
At one point it says "Statistical inference, regardless of whatever form it takes, only assigns probabilities. It cannot ever prove or disprove a theory. In fact, unlike mathematical theorems, scientific theories are never proven. They can only be supported by evidence and must always be subjected to scientific skepticism."

Then later it says:
"Rather than predicting future events, what such pre-stimulus physiological activity may actually reflect is that the brain can make predictions of probable events."

Thus, I am not sure whether you are suggesting that you tend to accept **real** precognition...or that you agree merely that some people are better than most at making accurate predictions based on reasoning about various data.... which is obviously true.
   What I'm really asking is whether you use "precognition" in the umm... metaphysical sense.

There is often a bit of equivocation when people debate a concept without agreeing on exactly what they are referring to.
