[[Duane Elgin]] was a futurologist at [[Stanford Research Institute|SRI]], known for his work as an economic and cultural trend watcher. He was considered creative and levelheaded, and his reports were respected by policy makers. In late 1973 and early 1974, [[Hal Puthoff]] and [[Russell Targ]] focused their research on Elgin and three other individuals, exploring their psychic abilities.[^1]
Elgin demonstrated strong psychic abilities, performing well in remote viewing tests and even trying his hand at psychokinesis. He claimed to have made a pendulum swing wildly just by concentrating on it. His interest in [[Parapsychology|psi]] phenomena intensified and began to profoundly change his life. He wrote a futurological report declaring that if psi were not taken more seriously by mainstream science, there might soon be a "civil war" between psychics and non-psychics.[^1]
