BKSir -> RE: Orbs (7/20/2009 11:29:53 PM)

I'm an amateur researcher/hunter/investigator. I believe there could be such things as ghosts/spirits/manifestations of energy. I refuse to acknowledge orbs, especially around animals, people or outside. Dust, hairs, dander, dandruff, reflection off of an eyelash or whisker, bugs, dandelion seeds, there are literally thousands of things that could cause an "orb".
Am I saying there's no such thing as ghosts? Hell no. I've seen wayyy too much strange shit with my own two eyes that simply can not be explained away, even with the oddest and most far fetched theories. Some things that recur, and if they happened once, I might be able to say, "well, the light and air pressure and car going by and raindrop sounds all coincided at just the right instance for that to have happened, but it's a one in a gajillion thing, that can simply not be repeated, impossible." But when it happens again, over and over and over in all kinds of different conditions, no. Not much I can do to explain it away.
I'm skeptical. 99% of ghosts are pipes banging, old wood floors creaking because of humidity, a stick from the tree falling on the roof, a cat wandering around outside, a mouse or bat in the attic, a curtain rustling from the heat vent, brushing up against a table just enough to make great aunt mabel's old crystal dinner bell ring once, the vibration from someone walking around upstairs causing the rocking chair downstairs to move... any number of things. But there's that 1% that's left, that little bit that just can not, no matter how hard one tries, be explained away. As they say "Once you eliminate the impossible, whatever remains, no matter how improbable, must be the truth".
