a spirit doesnt need to channel itself through the glass...the glass is just there as a marker for the board. the spirit can just channel itself through the person, the persons arm etc. | ||

Though I think the theater trip was about sound. Also knew the straw one given all the time I played with static as a kid and from Bill Nye the Science Guy. He/his assistant did a cool demonstration with a charged comb to alter the course of water coming from the sink. | ||

Why not just write a note? Are the spirits interested in unnecessary complications? It's not like there's some mystical power in the board itself, these things are made by Parker Bros for heaven's sake. | ||

I'm a self identified skeptic and really dig this kind of stuff, as someone who has a scammer is his family I'm happy to see more people getting the message out about the scam-esque activities of others. who is the scammer in your family lol Without getting too detailed about my family I’m related through marriage to a guy named Robert (BoB) Barefoot who sells a product called Coral Calcium. He claims that it can cure all diseases with wildly different causes; Cancer, Multiple Sclerosis, diabetes and tons more. Basically this guy uses the fear and lack or critical thinking in others to make millions it is really lame. To see people on TeamLiquid speak about critical thinking is inspiring, I’m glad to see people here working to spread the ideals of critical thinking and scientific principles of investigation. If you want to learn more about the scam that is Coral calcium check out this site, it is the TeamLiquid of medical scam debunking. http://www.quackwatch.com/ | ||

I'm glad that guy is really taking the time to fully and irrefutably exploit these products... I've seen people taking stuff like this and it's ridiculous how convinced they are.. just mindless shit to say the least. | ||

Here is the sad part; they have worked together a lot in the past, Coral Calcium was one of the 'cures' from the book by Treadeu called 'Cancer cures they don't want you to know about' | ||
