Our sensory apparatus is certainly quite fallible and quite readily influenced by what we believe, what we expect.

I think some people just are looking for answers and other outlets in our society may not as readily provide those kinds of answers.

People who are more anxious tend to believe in the paranormal. People who are more afraid of dying.

Another trait associated with belief in the paranormal is intolerance of ambiguity. That is, people who need answers more, are more likely to be the people who believe in the paranormal.

There's a "tree" joke in there somewhere.....

Those answers could be for how to confuse an Aspie. It would confuse me if someone said that.

Others I know are:
Put him in a round room and ask him to stand in the corner.
Record him speaking and play it back to him.

The suspense is killing me!

-Ask him to file American taxes?
-Ask him what the Irish president (not Taoiseach) actually does?

Do you guys have Irish jokes as well? I know all countries make fun of some nationality but in Australia, it's usually the Irish and Kiwis :D
