You're forgetting, Tack, that positive scientific results have to be repeatable, which ESP tests never appear to be. You may get lucky and guess 50 cards in a row out of 100, but no so-called psychics ever appear to be able to do it reliably. So if you get one study which shows that someone may have a better than chance ability to guess something, unless they can do it again and again every time it's tested, it's not scientific and not a valid result.
That's why a psychic may get lucky and win the lottery once, but it's doubtful they could predict the winning numbers every day. If someone could do this, I guarantee they'd be playing the lottery. I know I would.
