Psychics & Remote Viewers	Person Pseudonym Stargate Physicist RemoteViewer	Don Curtis is the pseudonym Jim Schnabel gave a Lawrence Livermore physicist who, with his wife, saw a hovering one-armed man in a gray suit after the group's Geller tests.

Don Curtis is the pseudonym Jim Schnabel gave a physicist at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory in Remote Viewers (1997); the Grey Lodge Occult Review spelled it Don Kurtis.¹ In Schnabel's account he was part of the group that investigated Uri Geller's psychokinetic abilities. After the group ceased its research activities with Geller, Curtis and his wife experienced one of the last bizarre apparitions: a hovering, holographic, one-armed man in a gray suit with a hook for a hand. This unsettling experience prompted Kit Green to demand a meeting with Hal Puthoff and Russell Targ to understand the phenomena.²
