The following question is not answered earlier in the thread, I believe: Why specifically does flaccon choose to use her laptop's video recording capability to record just sound instead of simply her laptop's audio recording capability.

Maybe because using the audio capabilities doesn't produce the voices? :dunno:

I do not really see the point in listing the number of people who cannot hear words on those silent recordings when flaccon herself has said that old recordings lose words that once were there, or suddenly have messages that were not there before.

Yes you do.

The point is simple: These people have taken the time to listen, and cannot hear any spoken words.

Don't be coy. It's the equivalent of the demands for empirical evidence, peer review, and reproducibility on an internet forum.

"Website Under Construction" again.

I now wish I'd thought to ask someone to do some screen captures of the original screens because I'd like to see if she actually changes things around or goes back to the original contentions.

Are we assuming that flaccon's taken a flyer? She doesn't seem the Robin1 type to me. (e.g. I don't see her as returning over and over to fight the good fight, as opposed to moving on to people who are willing to believe.)

Try a Google search for "site:www.chapter23.org". Some of the pages still exist as is. Most if not all of the others are in Google's cache.

Thanks, anyone want to tell me how I can save those. I'm technically challenged.

I do not wish any ill to come to flaccon but if she insists on putting up her (beyond) dubious promises again, I would not be against ill coming to her site, and would join with those who said they would report it. I'd just like to be able to compare the original pages to whatever comes of them in the future.

Your browser should have a save or save-as function to save the page. If you cannot find a menu for it, try Ctlr-S.

I've pasted a few of her claims on this thread. We'll know if she just changes the wording.

But it doesn't matter. She would still be accountable for her new claims if she made any.

I'm not saying I would go Lancaster on her site, but I really hate this sort of scam, so I'd stick my leg out for a trip if I could. I can't imagine an honest business model for woo, but if there is one, it's not based on targeting the bereaved.

Nor I. But I wouldn't hesitate to sic whatever authorities it might concern on the pages. And Liverpudlian and Mancoo... Mancu... Manchester-guy skeptics who should be the active ones in the area.
 
It's hard for me to understand how the OP thought she was going to win the JREF MDC with this silliness.

Seconded.
Claiming cats are Satan's minions, spawned to spread cancer amongst the unwary caught me my eye as well..

If and until she puts her website back up and we see what it is, I'd say this is a good first step. Posters in this thread (primarily Maurice, I think) made excellent points about how she was making clearly deceptive and possibly illegal claims on her site, and it looks like this convinced her to take it down, at least temporarily, which I think is a definite win.

We'll see what happens next...

If it comes up with the same material, then it will be reported to the ASA.
