TAGGING SESSION
by Glenn Wheaton

by Dick Allgire

On December 4, 2001 a Japanese researcher named Hideyuki Kokubo visited members of the Hawaii Remote Viewers' Guild in Honolulu. At one point he had Glenn Wheaton in front of a video camera, and handed Glenn a target envelope, a pen, and a sketchpad. "Work my target?" he asked.

The envelope had a target ID written on the outside: SEA-NTQ. That is the only information given to Glenn. With the video camera rolling Glenn sat down and began not a full remote viewing session, but a demonstration of "tagging."

In the first still frame from the video you can see Glenn preparing to work. He was given absolutely no frontloading. The target was sealed in an envelope and known only to Hideyuki. The target could have been any event, location, building, person, anywhere on earth.

Glenn begins "sweeping" the blank sheet of paper with his left hand. As he does this he closes his eyes and looks on Blackboard for a visual ideogram - a one and a half second glimpse of the target.

He begins sketching the outline of a face. Within about 3 minutes he states, "It's an old woman."

As he works Glenn executes quick "spontaneous ideograms" on the page and then probes them for data about the target.

Another quick probe to retrieve data, and details about the woman emerge. Glenn states that she is a Japanese woman, and that she is between 83 and 89 years old.

Glenn struggles to draw the hair the way he sees it. He describes the hair as "old woman style."

Still trying to draw the hair just right, he says there is a lot of white in it. It is wispy and fine. He gestures that it is curved under at the neck and ears.

After working for about 10 minutes he is finished. The target, he states, is an elderly Japanese woman - 83 to 89 years old, very smart, with gray/white hair.

This is a scan of the actual sketch produced by Glenn Wheaton for Hideyuki.

And this is the photo that was in the target envelope. Hideyuki later said, "I was very impressed. I was trying hard not to show my amazement. I have no doubt as to Mr. Wheaton's psychic abilities."
