Are random number generators being influenced by global events and intentions.

I don't know. Do you have evidence that they are?

Don't worry, Rick's in paradigm denial.
Yes, mind influencing matter....
....and a quantum global village!
Père Teilhard de Chardin's The Future of Man; a gentle and deeply passionate vision of purpose and possibility for human beings rings true, and settles deep within. Even though it may be premature to expect the full measure of our potential, we are growing fast, and as Chardin observed, long before the age of the Internet, we are becoming one world; we have no other choice: "The Age of Nations is past. The task before us now, if we would not perish, is to build the Earth."

....when powerful events caused large numbers of people to pay attention to the same thing....
....linked with events that cause shared thoughts and emotions in millions of people....

de Chardin,
....the noosphere is analogous on a planetary level to the evolution of the cerebral cortex in humans. The noosphere is a "planetary thinking network" -- an interlinked system of consciousness and information, a global net of self-awareness, instantaneous feedback, and planetary communication....
....in these precious moments, the planet is developing her cerebral cortex, and emerging into self-conscious awakening. We are indeed approaching the Omega point that Teilhard de Chardin was so excited about....

What is the mechanism by which the universe interfaces with our organism?
....the interplay between the very big and the very small....
The new physics of today now dynamically entangles our conscious thoughts with the quantum representation of the physical world.
....infinite pure potential becomes actualized as human consciousness - how the superposed quantum potentials collapse into a single tangible wavefunction - how mind becomes matter....
Nature lies within our deepest structure and function, the psychophysical.
....thoughts as efficacious....
An observer-created reality in which the act of measurement gives rise to observed reality.

the 'noosphere' (if one believes in such a thing) is simply an emergent pattern. Emergent patterns are zombies, not conscious entities.
