Believe at your own discretion; here is an article:

On Sept. 11, 2001, between 4:30 and 5:00 a.m. (EST)—four hours before the terrorist attack on the World Trade Center occurred—several computers dedicated to a project aimed at measuring emotional fluctuations on a global level began to transmit frenzied patterns. Events such as large traffic jams or the simultaneous ignition of millions of radio and television sets seeking news channels were just some of the examples collected from computers measuring behavior that shifted from a relatively random pattern to suggesting a collective consciousness that seemed to anticipate the tragedy.

This collective anticipation before an event of global proportion possibly points toward a direct relation between hard facts and a hypothetical global consciousness. In other words, if the interpretation of the data obtained by the computers in the "Global Consciousness Project" is correct, there exists the latent possibility that events impossible to perceive consciously in humans as individuals can surprisingly be perceived in mankind as a whole.

A network of computers spanning 65 countries feed into the Global Consciousness Project (GCP) as the entire system checks for variations every second. Its goal is to obtain a unique pattern of world behavior, which, for the majority of the time, remains stable. These computers act as a "random number generator" that each second process 200 bits of information and send it to the center in Princeton for analysis.

Given the quantity of information, and the measured parameters of human conduct produced at random, these statistics tend to stabilize at a certain value. This is to say that the individual action of a person passes imperceptibly before the sea of individual actions measured every second, and the corresponding pattern recorded by the GCP can only have its value altered when a considerable number of individuals (on a global scale) alter their conduct in any measured way.
