I have found that I can start cars by chanting to the Hindu god Ram as I
turn the start key. Start off slowly and quickly increase the pace of
the chanting. Never fails.
Yes indeed - the world would be a vastly improved place if more people
could do this.
I disagree, people repairing cars by telekinesis is potentially very bad
for the environment.

Well, if Dr Emoto can change the structure of water crystals by simply
sticking emotive words onto the container, it makes it entirely possible
that one could change a sound simply by listening to it with a certain
intent. What is known is that we can certainly change our perceptions
with such mental intent. The effects of observation on subtle processes
is also a known factor. Being open-minded is a fine thing, but it has to
be tempered with sceptical discrimination. If you insist on engaging in
ungrounded speculation, expect to be shot down in flames by hard-headed
logicians.
