It's those little touches that distinguish the real crooks.
 
Tracy, how about posting that recording that predicts the Jesus being struck by lightning? I would like to know how likely it is that I will have to pay out $100.

I can't speak for the spirits, last time I tried it turned into some crazy tit-for-tat and they got upset by it. I'll certainly ask them before I turn in (which is about now)

So, has your father's ghost agreed to my simple little message passing protocol?

Flaccon, I have myriad old circuit boards, leds, plastic boxes and soldering gear in my garage. I can fashion a number of electronic boxes that will flash, whirr, beep and click in the presence of ghostly visitors, whether they are inside your computer or anywhere else you'd like me to pinpoint them. These boxes, I can assure you, will be deadly accurate in picking up spirit.

If you are willing to pay my travel, board and lodging and expenses, I will construct these devices and bring them to use at your location. You can film me in the use of them, and I have no doubt that you will be delighted with the beeping and whirring and flashing as they confirm your claims of spirits infesting your computers.

When do we start?

ETA - Oh, I could add some kind of meter to the boxes if you'd be impressed by a needle jiggling about on a box with flashing lights?

A nixie tube readout would be awesome in the dark.

My PI group - which I just created - consists of me, the lead guitarist from my band (who will also act as PI Van driver), my girlfriend (need some TLC on those long journeys from one ghostly assignment to another), and Ruffles, our spirit-scenting dog. We come equipped with an assortment of clicking, beeping, flashing and whirring devices that will go absolutely mental whenever you tell us that you think spirit is in the vicinity. Guaranteed.

We charge only expenses as we are a professional team and we want to show the world that computer spirits exist and send us Earthlings important messages, such as: "shlee-weep fidda idda fidda blobble down the back of the mantlepiece fibble gisssh gisshhh fssssssss thwupp." But we have to cover fuel and food and lodgings so a minimal fee to cover these expenses is only fair.

flaccon, we are at your disposal.

Ghosts speak in tongues?

And this whole thread turns maudlin.

I had forgotten how sad it made me; curse my short memory. I'd exhort Tracy to seek better mental health advice, but... etc.

*Sigh*
:(

It's not that memory grows worse as we age it's just that we have much more to remember.:)

If you're gonna nitpick and define true as "actually happened in reality" then probably not but I suspect that it's defined here as "What I need to fulfill my fantasy".
 
Have you gotten your daughter involved in your "investigation?"

I don't think I need an exorcism, what possess me is actually protecting me from what attacks us. It's the world that needs exorcising. These "things" are getting away with murder. My urgency (the press) was because their latest message spoke volumes. Without scare-mongering, it was "the devil spawns the internet" Call me crazy but we really are witnessing these positive spirits transferring their "magic?" through a signal, it's fair to believe that the devil can do the same through a signal. I know, yes you believe I'm crazy and I hope I am, but its not looking too promising.

What messages? You stated no message: "the devil spawns the internet" has no meaning.

You've been posting claims online for a decade, and according to your own statements, many of them ocurred years before. At this rate, we'll all be long gone (and so will your investigators and the reporter) before your "spirits" decide to share anything helpful.

flaccon, why can't you simply be direct? Much time is wasted on asking you to clarify your vague statements. Each evasive answer you post is evidence that you are either confused or not telling the truth.

What "paranormal investigation group" or reporter requires anonymity? I've never heard of such a thing. This isn't Watergate. So far your earth-shattering news and messages consist of various names (mostly your own) and nonsensical phrases you hear in electronic static.

How does that benefit anyone? How does "You think your breath is complicated" benefit humankind? How do images of your family in blood drops - that only you can see - benefit humankind? What omens do diamonds breaking reveal?

You stated very early in this thread that your spirits can't predict the future. Now they can. There's information missing. How will your investigators resolve inconsistancies like this? Are you sure that you've shared your entire history, including all your online posts, with them?*

*Assuming this is a different group and not ASKE, who has already responded.

OH!! OH!! Can I have some too? I've had all kinds of Truth but it's been ever so long since I had consequinces.
 
I posted this question for flaccon a couple pages back. It's understandable if it got overlooked, but I genuinely am interested in the answer...

Flaccon, have you shown the reporters or investigators the recording that you seem to think is spirit voices saying "Thats right Tracey, God can be offended, please come out and die," but that the rest of us all think is a perfectly ordinary radio ad for a record store? Because I would be very interested in their reaction to that.
 
flaccon said:
Alice they don't just communicate with me. If I was completely out the equation, they would still be communicating with others. I've reported everything yes, including the rest.

Somehow I keep feeling there's another party to this discussion whose input I can't see.:confused:

Good luck with that. I might as well add my previous question to the list before the page disappears - anyone else?

Flaccon also stated early on (from her now extinct website) that the spirits can speak in a well-articulated, conversational manner. Now they can't. Everything keeps changing.

I recall a ghost hunters show where they claimed that specks of dust floating in front of the camera on the floor were actually balls of energy and therefore proof of ghosts. I recall another episode where one had a string running from his collar down his sleeve so that he could tug on it and pretend that a ghost was pulling on his collar. The show has zero integrity and zero credibility.
 
I have and will continue to be honest in this thread for as long as I type here. I updated the thread regarding our next moves this weekend, and I honestly shouldn't have. I have also been honest with the press, the P.I team and the ASKE organisation. We are nervous regarding Friday. There will be my eldest sibling and my eldest daughter present. The evening will be recorded, and the press will be observing. I forwarded a file to the P.I team, containing a number of recordings from youtube (including Casey Kaseem's, and the message for a gent named Tony) I don't mean to be vague with names unless permission is granted. I contacted the press so I can't be hand waved away again as deluded before a fair chance at receiving some help from somewhere worthy. (Despite the supporting letter from my (longstanding) GP, who is very aware that I wouldn't be seeking attention unless it was seriously needed) We shouldn't have to be approaching P.I teams, the press or challenges, we we're entitled to private church help from the off.

When one points out that I have been online for a decade writing about the paranormal, I've actually written twice/three times, in (or before) 2005, and around 3 posts since (other than this thread)
I have to say, I do realise that no one here believes a word I type, and never has, but I have been honest with just about everything here, albiet confusing I'm certainly no expert when it comes to dealing with intelligent spirits, nor is anyone else here. I feel my honesty is wasted, and brings about further confusements, which is not my intention. Like I continue to say, this is unfolding and hasn't finished unfolding. I have no idea what else these spirits are capable of, but I'm learning more as time goes by.

I'm certain it will reach more than just the one daily news paper, you should be able to glean any final updates from there. Thanks and best of luck, sincerely.

Kate's 31, has children of her own, and is also being refused the help she needs to protect her young. You may assume that I rope her into this, but I have protected her throughout these 20 years (and still will)
