I think they were perfect gentlemen, protecting themselves from lawsuits but not skirting the issue.  The copy of the video that Dave Schrader showed almost immediately is here:  http://www.ghosttvblogs.com/videos.

It is called "The Throw."  They couldn't get it out fast enough and Zak couldn't get out of the lockdown quick enough to find Robert.

Somehow………just can't imagine Jason doing the same thing. 


Ummm…. not exactly sure where you get "perfect gentlemen" or "lawsuits" out of any of this.  First, who is going to sue them – absolutely no one –  and, if you think so, what do you think could possibly be the basis for a suit?  This is a television show.  Second, I'll just say it again …. "perfect gentlemen"?  Why?

"Not skirting the issue"?  Saying it wasn't paranormal was exactly that – skirting the issue.  He should have just said the guy threw it.  Why didn't he?  Because it would have confirmed what everyone was saying.  Even that video you supplied is proof positive.

"They couldn't get it out fast enough"?  It was the end of the investigation.

"Zak couldn't get out of the lockdown quick enough to find Robert."  Really?  Did he go running all over the place looking for him?  Did he ask anyone where he was?  Did he demand someone find him?  No.  Zak and his crew were brought outside and did their little post interview as scheduled.  interesting, all he had to do was merely walk over to where the production crew were waiting with Robert to explain the "controversy".  As soon as  Zak saw Robert being brought to position, he excused himself and walked over to try to "stop the bleeding" like he was told to do.

Jason's way of dealing with controversy is very cut and dry.  It's here's what we want you to know and ignore the fallout.

It would be interesting to see, though, how he would react to such obvious faking done by a guest (and which wasn't done in tandem with their own ala the Manson case) I'd bet he'd be a bit more "overt" about it if someone from the outside were doing something that hadn't been cleared with them, and got caught because it was so blatant!

BUT, just like with GA…pot…kettle…

Robert Bess tells his side of the story here. Apparently they did encounter something there.

My sister recorded this, since one of the DVDs she and Ross brought with them on vacation says,GA,7hours. So it must be this episode. I can't wait to watch it,to see if Robert Bess did throw the meter.

It was I supposed good that they didn't call him out, if he indeed threw his meter.

That only hurt's his credibility, not GA's.

As far as the robot goes, that's not a bad idea. Now of course  you can't capture a ghost. I think he's seen GhostBusters too many times. However, the reason I don't think it's a bad idea is because such a device could have a camera on it,and it could go places where for safety's sake, you might not want to send team members. Like when GH explored Buffalo Central Terminal, and I recall in some areas they wore masks to keep from breathing dust and asbestos.You might even capture on camera activity  that investigators might not capture.Like on GH when everyone sees shadows, but we the audience never see them, because the cameraman is too busy shooting Jay and Grant or the others, and never turns around fast enough to capture these so called shadows.
