These are just the notes that I have written down before the show: Not in any particular order:

Our guest will be John Lewis, a paranormal investigator from Baelfire Paranormal
Investigation in Titusville, PA. Mr. Lewis will be discussing the ins-and-outs of
paranormal investigation including his work, the tools he uses, the science behind
his work and famous cases. Check out his work at http://baelfireparanormal.org.


http://www.youtube.com/user/onyx6977


Let talk about your business and what you do John? You charge for these services?

What is the paranormal?

What is a ghost?

Tools and methodology:
- The scientific method and how it applies to paranormal investigations
Material vs immaterial
Physical vs Non-physical

Physical tools to detect, immateriality? Say what?


** Mist at the Knickbocker Hotel
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=APSROyFYAiI - Flashlight Ghost - dull flashlight, He's got to fookin' kidding us!


ORBS:

Dust near or on camera lens: flash near lens.

** Transit Building
- More orbs

Pimortal - Primordial
** http://www.angelfire.com/scary/bpi/Example_of_a_Mist.JPG
Patterns amongst the chaos.
Much like we see faces in the clouds. But do we really believe that the clouds
have faces?


** Apparition
Image
From his site: "Apparition: The most rare form of ghost seen.
It is when the spirit energy takes human-like form."


** Slippery Rock
Play, YES sound
Play scream sound


** The Orb at knickerbocker Hotel

Link



** Miller Auditorium:
http://www.angelfire.com/scary/bpi/slipperyrockinvest.htm

"While these events hold no scientific weight on our findings, we at Baelfire Paranormal
Investigation feel that it is important that we report these occurances and activities
to the Client, in this particular case, Slippery Rock University."

Yet you use "scientific sounding", at least, equipment.

"Having analyzed all gathered evidence,
it is our opinion that Miller Auditorium
is Haunted." - What? How you leap to that?!


** "Due to the pleasant atmosphere of the Theater, as well as the fact of no injuries
have been reported, Baelfire Paranormal Investigation does not recommend any removal
of said entities. They seem to be pleasant, for the most part."
http://www.angelfire.com/scary/bpi/slipperyrockinvest.htm - He does removal service now. Like Tree removal? lol

Could you be wrong John?

What about other phenomena? What's your litmus. How do you know other claims are not real? Dragons? Mermaids etc..?

I'm not photography expert, but is it possible that some dust got on the camera lens?

First show I've been able to listen to live, considering the time difference between Britain and America. It's just a shame that the guest was kind of disappointing, particularly what with having some "emergency" crop up halfway through, just when the questions started getting difficult. Still, while he was there, he had nothing particularly impressive to share with us. Just another case of; "I can't explain these anomalies, therefore they must be ghosts!"

Why can't people see how the argument from ignorance doesn't work?

Have you been able to reschedule your interview with John Lewis? I would like to believe that he really did have a emergency but I think I detected him getting very defensive and nervous when answering some of your questions. I don't think he is up to your level of intelligence and this sort of bull only works with people who don't have very sharp reasoning skills and who really want to believe....

John apologized and said that he did indeed get sick during the show. He suspects that it is the flu. He is interested in rescheduling. We don't know when however.

No, I didn't think so either. If he truly was feeling sick then he should have no problem rescheduling when he is feeling better. If not, well, I will have to assume he bailed.

Sorry gold members, I just realized that I didn't even upload the show properly to the archives. It should be working now.

A lot of those photos of apparitions look like they were taken with a poor quality camera or dusty lens. I couldn't see anything that looked remotely like a human being in that picture.

It seems our paranormal "investigator" closed his youtube account. Reggie (Infidelguy) has a respectful mention in this youtube debunking of onyx6977.

Great job Reggie and SeenAndNotSeen. Randi should be proud as I am.
