part 1: spontaneous telepathic dreaming

"it is the account of the spontaneous telepathic dream that is seldom printed in journals, yet it does happen - such dreams do occur - to ordinary people in everyday life. a fairly recent experience of one of the authors, alan vaughan, is a case in point. he watched one of his favorite writers, kurt vonnegut, jr., on a television talk show one night, and had a dream about him two nights later. he wrote about the dream to vonnegut on march 13, 1970. '...you appeared in a dream i had this morning. we were in a house full of children. you were planning to leave soon on a trip. then you mentioned that you were moving to an island named jerome. (as far as i know there is no such place, so perhaps the name jerome or initial j has some related meaning.)' vonnegut's answer was dated march 28, 1970. 'not bad. on the night of your dream, i had dinner with jerome b. (an author of children's books), and we talked about a trip i made three days later to an island named england.'"
