Thanks for putting your neck on the line back then.

When we finally get a chance to have a beer together, I'd like to hear about it.

Ditto. Thanks for your service, Bob.

My dad has a silver star in addition to that other stuff (as well as the Clois du Guerre). Something about Chermans and Normandy or something.

When I find electro magnetic traces from the formerly living, it's a reminent or reflection of their energy as a living being.
You are not pulling my legs are you? If so, awesome. How do you investigate paranormal activities? With modern instruments or do you have 6th sense(s)? Any good stories to tell?! Do share!

I am not pulling your legs. No, I do not have a 6th sense. We use a variety of electronic devices such as EMF meters (electro magnetic field), thermal imagers, highly sensitive sound capture devices, video recorders and a variety of other devices depending on what we're investigating. If I understand the concept of chi correctly, I would imagine that given your sensitivity to it you would be a valuable person to have on an investigation. Many people claim to have the gift to sense energy sources like the ones we investigate, but in reality, very few do.

Thanks. didn't really mean to bring that all up. Your dad was in something different, that most can't begin to comprehend. God bless him.

Wow, Sean, that is really cool. Maybe Frank can actually do something good with his life after all!

EDIT: thanks, Bob, likewise

Hey Dung Pile, maybe your new found friend of the paranormal type can help you after all! With his "highly sensitive sound capture devices" he must be able to listen in on your Fart Bubble Brain! The two of you should get along quite well.

Well, my chi-kong teacher has said, certain stances will stimulate the opening of the 3rd eye (6th senses)... we shall see. There are indeed lot of BS out there, and lot of ppl try to make money and what not. Like that black woman Silvia Brown, I think she is fake as hell. Maybe you should consider learning chi-kong from my teacher in LA and try to experience it yourself... lot of smart guy (CalTech students and ex staff) learn from Master YAN Yuanhua.

I don't know about the opening of the the third eye, but I do know that some people are more attuned to the world around them. My interest in the area comes from my Mother who is 100% Oglala Sioux indian. I am half American indian. My ancestors believed that everything comes from mother earth and that other spirits either alive or dead can be communictated with. They believed that not only could you communiciate with your departed ancestors, but also with the spririt of the bear, deer, eagle, etc. Because every living and non-living thing gets its spririt from mother earth, you can feel its spririt in a similar way. Kind of like chi. Through our investigations, we've found there is truth to this but it's difficult to document using conventional electronic devices.

Hey Bob . . . I wanted to thank you, as well. My uncle Robbie (Robert) had two bronze stars and a purple heart before he was killed in a mortar attack in Vietnam. He died before I was born, but my family sure misses him. I'm glad you came home to your people. Your service undoubtedly will not be forgotten.

Now back to the b.s.
