    Seriously though, read the book "trick of the mind" by Derren Brown which explains how the mind can be manipulated to believe owt. He debunks sprirtualists who say they can speak to the dead and exposes them as charlatans.

    The power of suggestion is a powerful thing and he should know what he is talking about with the things he gets people to believe.

    Also you can consider how it has been proven that positive thought can help improve medical conditions.


    Basically its all in the mind! If you truly think you will see a ghost/ ufo you will.

    Bit off topic, but went on an Ouija Board about 44 years ago and life has pretty much panned out the way our contact said it would.

    Well, sota, mon ami, I am heartily pleased that my experience was the opposite. Did the Ouija board thing in 1974 (one and only time) and the damn thing told me I would die the next time I drove a car. Scared the pants off me. I think though I am still here. Well, sort of.

    There's always one (or in your and mike's case possibly two). I take your point about suggestion and I'm certain it explains many odd sightings. however, because something may be down to suggestion does not mean that all phenomena are down to suggestion. I shall put the experiences mentioned by posters above in my "Unexplained Box". Btw, your joke was funny.
