Someone needs to remind the Air Force they've gotta request a NOTAM when they're testing their EMP stuff.

Grow up people.
Well, I hate to be the one to burst your bubble but they do exist and I am a grown up. I've had experiences and I've seen a full bodied apparition...I was watching tv and believe me, seeing a ghost was the last thing on my mind at the time. This was way before all these ghost hunting shows gained popularity so I know I wasn't influenced by them. I'm 62 yrs old, mom of 7, grandmother of 12. Homeowner, don't drink or do drugs, or have any sort of mental condition. I have multiple hobbies and lead a busy normal life. I;m just telling you all that to show that it's not like I live my life searching for anything paranormal but occasionally when I least expect it, I do come across it. Just because you haven't experienced it doesn't mean it doesn't exist.

Well, as I said, if it works, it works. If it doesn't, where's the harm?

Yes, I am skeptical. I wouldn't believe I was seeing a ghost if one came up to shake my hand and even then, I'd be looking for lights and wires.

On the other hand, I've had some strange experiences that I'm not going to just shrug off and I've known some very honest and disbelieving people who have also had experiences. I'm not saying my experiences can't be explained by something rational. But until they can be, I have to call them something. So I call them paranormal, which for me is simply a word for that which cannot be explained.

Until you experience it for yourself.
