No scientific work makes unsourced claims like this one.

What's behind it is wishful thinking, an alternative idea which is meant to give credibility to telepathy as we can tune into the electromagnetic signals emitted by eachothers hearts. The so-called science and everything else in there are poor attempts at breaking down your logical barriers to the point where you'll accept such an outlandish idea.

But hey, you can believe what you want, of course.
Until I hear from some of those real journals, I won't completely dismiss it. I just think it needs to be studied some more.

I already said I'm not sold on the idea. Therefore I don't believe it. But i'm not going to be as close minded as ya'll and ignore the studies of these professors, people who are smarter than us.

“The trouble with having an open mind, of course, is that people will insist on coming along and trying to put things in it”
Terry Pratchett

Professors may be intelligent individuals but it doesn't make them reliable sources. Schwartz has refused to turn over his data for analysis by the JREF, you kind of have to wonder why that may be.
