Mystery Voices

Its a ghost, no question. You know who to call. (ghostbusters)

No but in all seriousness, chance is a strange thing. One would think if you roll a die you would most likely not roll the same number 10 times in a row. or flip a quarter and get heads every time, but I've had it happen. Thats why its called chance. I'd guess that a chance RF signal just happened to screw with your tape recorder.

But I can't say with any certainty what happened anymore than anyone else. Believe what you like. Who knows maybe there really are ghosts out there. We only understand a very small fraction of how this universe works. I know theres lots of things that we are sure of today that in the future will seem as silly as being sure that the Earth is flat.

What self-respecting ghost would go around wasting ectoplasm saying hello, hello ..... into a tape-recorder

They usually say GET OUT.

See you on the other side of the Universe ! I'm going in my wormhole.

I have looked at most of the ghoasthunting equipment because I have needs for searching for noise. Magnetic and electrostatic interference plays hell with sensitive equipment. Most of the ghost hunting I have seen on TV involves very little use of any equipment that can identify things other than voice or video and field strengths. There are some people however with some very good equipment such as spectrum analyzer measuring magnetics and electrostatics, and not just measuring field strength. Some are also trying to measure time shifts.

Did I ever tell about the time I made a gravity detector ?? Out of 80's electronics mag. It worked !! I sware !!

I remember being bit a couple of times, myself.

The articles are usually very well written and very plausible.

I remember the 'cold cathode vacuum tube' article with blue glowing cathodes. I remember the atomic powered transistors with built in power sources.

Then there was the gravity wave detector.

All in good fun.

I check the gravity in my house every day. I let go of a plate. If it falls to the ground and breaks, then the gravity is detected and still there, and I can breath a sigh of relief that I'm not going to shoot off into space ... :-)

I'm still trying to explain how my aged mother could drop a frozen ribeye steak onto the floor, but when she bent to look for it-- and a few moments later when I looked for it-- it was gone. Nowhere to be found anywhere inside (or out). Would'a been funny if my mother had a sense of humor, but since she doesn't, the incident goes into the Unsolved Mysteries file along with a few other inexplicables. So, does *everything* really always fall down?

I have unexplained incidents happen shortly after loved ones passed.

That has happened around here, thankfully, but there are mysteries and there are... mysteries. I had a three-pack of videotapes; I put one in my tape machine and I turned around to put the other two away, but only one was on the bed. I looked for that third tape for two weeks before I gave up finding it. Then about a month later I was lying in bed when out of the corner of my eye I saw the missing tape fall-- from nowhere in particular-- onto the bed beside my right arm. To that I would swear to and take any lie detector test ever made; that really happened.

Some folks have come up with the concept of "hammer space." No kidding: Google it. I'm only now beginning to think that maybe four dimensions just aren't enough to cover it all. Lol.
