Which is to say, all of them. Unfortunately, nobody can support RFC 3066bis,
because it still has no official RFC number.

The present impossibility of giving a scientific explanation is no proof
that there is no scientific explanation. The unexplained is not to be
identified with the unexplainable, and the strange and extraordinary
nature of a fact is not a justification for attributing it to powers
above nature. --The Catholic Encyclopedia, s.v. "telepathy" (1913)
