A default assumption of western technological societies is that nature is dumb, random, and basically oblivious to us as individuals. Many of us, however, have embraced the notion of synchronicity, and concede that apparently random events occasionally conform to a higher order. This order suggests that intelligence is embedded in the world and can orchestrate events.

Scientifically-endowed people tell us that an observer is necessary to the quantum observer effect. But when you ask them how the quantum particle "knows" you are looking at it, and not looking out the window at the crows, they are forced back on to such slippery concepts as "nonlocality."
