We've often hinted at some of the other research we at KRI find ourselves getting involved with, but rarely provide the details. Let us take this opportunity to do so.

For several months through the past winter we have been involved with various experiments in hypnotic regression. We've been working with Ed Lane of A New You Center for Hypnosis, who's been graciously donating his time towards the project. We've regressed several of our members (and associated non-member volunteers) to past lives with some particularly vivid accounts - although none yet verifiable. Perhaps even more interesting, however, is Ed's (and ours) interest in the results we've achieved in "between life" regression.

There have been many crises and complications among the KRI team members since the last update, but none so difficult to adjust to than the departure of our own Lorna Cayer. The last several months have pushed each of us through our own personal wringer, we each have responded in our own way, but we regret to announce that Ms. Cayer has opted to seek out other avenues of exploration.

When a group forms through their combined efforts, it's often hard to see the effects and influence of each of the individuals within that group. A synergy forms, an "energy" different from each individual, yet balancing the strengths and weaknesses of each of those individuals in a new and unique way. It creates a new life, and the importance of any one individual is only felt when one exits the group. The KRI has changed with Lorna's departure, and only time will tell how we rebalance ourselves in the aftermath.

The first notable change is in the website. We consider the site a low priority next to the work itself, so whenever anything goes wrong it is the first to suffer. The fact that this update is being posted should be a

The website changes are now complete, and we are again in a period of fast activity. Hopefully, we'll now be able to keep the site updated as it all progresses!

A couple important events that have recently taken place:

• • Beau has been called in on a missing persons case. We can offer no further details yet until the parties involved give their okay, but this is an important advance nonetheless.

There are all kinds of imminent changes going on here for us - the details on each or any could make for a substantial article in itself. So, here are the highlights:

First, the website. It has again undergone a major behind-the-scenes change, primarily to make it more cross-browser friendly. Come and look, it's all

Although it's often difficult to see, the KRI is continuing to make forward progress. Some of the more obvious examples would be an invite to return to a television show, and our new internet radio presence ("Intellectual Spirituality" on BlogTalkRadio). Less obvious is some of the feedback we are receiving from our work with Paranormal Citings, and our recent participation in Portsmouth's third presentation of Pecha Kucha night. These various endeavors are (we hope) laying the groundwork for positioning the KRI as one of the better, more careful, groups. When we say we are trying to bridge parascience to science, we expect to do so - grounded in reason and incredulity. We hope the information we put out there adequately reflects this.

Other important changes include Andy's relinquishing some of his controls and duties. Lorna will be utilizing her forensics and training experience to put together some excercises and lectures about the technical ("how-to")
