    Listen to the Halt tape. The timing of the flashes exactly matches the timing of the lighthouse. It is very probable, I'd say, that he was looking at the lighthouse. I had high hopes for this case until that bit of evidence. I have been a soldier and I know that they are human beings who...

    OK, that's more like it! One vote for the trickster! Anybody else want to chime in? I'm being serious here. If you think the trickster offers more than science, stand up and be counted!

    I don't think you're allowed to call a Paranormal Master that. Moderator! ---------- Post added at 01:29 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:26 AM ---------- Your honor, I have been thanked 37 times in 74 posts, a somewhat better ratio than 'Cats. The defense rests.

    Nope. It's savvy, not savy. But I wasn't even trying to correct your spelling at the time. If you'd like me to have a go at your spelling or grammar, I charge $80 per hour. If you will review my posts on this forum, I have never once pointed out errors in spelling or grammar unless you count...

    I have recently been promoted to Paranormal Master, so I got that going for me. I'm not sure I can put my beef with Chris O'Brien any clearer. What's not clear? I'm calling shenanigans on some things he's either written or said. To name two examples: He claims to know a lady whose hair...

    Boys, boys, boys! Settle down a little. We're all critical thinkers here, OK? Being one of our sharpest critical thinkers, there is no way that Chris O'B. is going to let that hair-turning-white miracle stand as is. Chris will have done a little research by now and realizes that although...

    What recent news is that?

    Wow. I just went and read the thread. The most fascinating thing was the reaction of David Biedny. He was the best thing about the original Paracast, but he could be maddening. Come to think of it, those two facts are not unrelated. He portrayed himself as a normal guy to whom weird things...

    So why do you hang out here?

    I confess that I am not solely posting for the fun of seeing people scramble to defend nonsense. That's part of it, but not all of it. I mentioned my long-standing interest in UFOs, mainly because the potential for bettering the human condition is so great if there's anything to the...

    Very little is beneath me, but I take your point. But what if there are people on this forum who are teetering on the edge, trying to decide on a rational world view or a "demon-haunted world?" Might not at least some of these seekers be persuaded into the clean fresh air of critical...

    Christopher, we all have to budget our limited reading time. Have you thoroughly researched astrology? I mean, really read all that there is on the subject? I haven't, because it was a fairly easy call for me that there's nothing there and so to spend a lot of time investigating all the...

    I come here for the same reason you do: it amuses me. Human nature is fascinating, don't you think? Why do people believe what they believe? I mean, we're all given the same raw material to work with and some of us are rational and some of us are stockpiling survival provisions and drinking...

    Wheeee! A hornet's nest! Are you guys afraid of the Brights? Randi? Seems like it. Anybody got any proof yet? Didn't think so... Sort of off-topic: Anybody here believe in the validity of astrology? ---------- Post added at 09:56 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:54 PM ----------...

    I just don't understand how obviously intelligent folks like some of the show's co-hosts can believe or pretend to believe this stuff. It's not for the money, surely. Their own amusement? Fine, but what about the people who actually give credibility to what they're saying and may even make...

    But anecdotal stories are the very lifeblood of this whole site. Nobody presents any proof of anything. None. It's all stories, some of it told more convincingly than others, but a story is a story and should never be the basis for overturning a common sense view of the way things work...

    Pix, you need to have some tolerance. After all, you believe in NWO and 911 conspiracies, just as big a load of junk as anything else on this forum. Is your fallout shelter fully stocked, or can I still sell you some veggie seeds grown on patriotic freedom soil? What a crock!

    Actually, the miracle of Fatima is just as valid a topic for discussion as any other on this forum. Tens of thousands of people witnessed something which they say was paranormal. So deal with it. This board makes plenty of hay over incidents with a tiny fraction of the witnesses at...

    Errrm... Why is it considered such a good thing to believe? Faith is praised by every religion but I suspect it's because they need faith to plug up the holes in their theology. If you have no real proof of something that you desperately need to be true, why, just make faith itself the supreme...

    Skeptics...a philosophical discussion

    Not to worry, CG, these guys are more like pussy cats. They can and will mock, but it's only because they don't have very much else in their arsenal. Don't be scared to come on in: the water's fine!
