Ilya Geller has been banned. We give people with non-mainstream ideas a whole thread to support their concepts, explain their idea using as much evidence as possible. When they can't, the thread gets locked and they aren't allowed to bring it up in other threads. Hijacking mainstream threads with unsupported science is against the rules, especially when you keep doing it after being warned.
