Precognition

From TinWiki.org

Precognition is the direct knowledge or perception of the future that is obtained through extraordinary means. It is the most frequently reported of all ESP experiences. The majority of spontaneous experiences happen within forty-eight hours of the future event and particularly within twenty-four hours. Eighty to eighty-five percent involve a spouse, family member, or friend with whom has close emotional ties. The difference between precognition and premonition is that a premonition is a vague feeling or impression, while precognition is a more specific feeling.

It is now known that the brain does make constant predictions, the brain perceives everything a 10th of a second ahead of what it does, that is the action that makes you catch the Frisbee instead of it hitting you; your brain predicts the future path. A lot of people do just dismiss these claims as lucky guess. Nostrodamus is the most famous precog of all, it is said that he used to fill a sliver bowl full of water and then look into it to see the future; his most famous prediction is that of a future war that will involve Hisler, it is remarkably close to Hitler. In his book Les Propheties he talks more indepth about his predictions.
