Ironically enough when I was looking for skeptic sites I came across this one before I found this site. I'll admit they have taken a drunken frat guy approach to skepticism but I can't argue with the basic point. I also remember the episode in question. That poor little boy did seem to be some what off.

My problem with that site was that everyone there were just as closed minded non-believers as the zealots on the PS and GH sites that "Want to Believe." (Sorry I watched way to much X-Files throughout high school and college) A true skeptic is like a scientist that takes every situation, analyzes it and then decides what really happened.

That guy over at Action Skeptics is pretty hostile about everything.  He's a bit scary, actually.   A "pathological loner"?  Um… okay. 

But what I really wanted to comment on was this ….  he told about a water poltergeist following him home after an investigation.  He realized it when a couple of hours later, his water heater sprung a leak and flooded the 1st floor of his home

OMG!!!  I've had TWO water heaters spring leaks on me over the years, and flood the basement floor!  Quick!  Get me some Holy Water to bless my basement…. oh, wait.  I mopped it all up and dumped it down the drain.  My bad. 

Frankly I loved that blog, I got a belly laugh from it.   I can't stomach PS either, it's pure drivel, and probably doing more damage to the field of parnormal research than any cynic or uber-skeptic ever could.

In fact, why don't they just drop the "paranormal" out of the title and call it "Demon State" – that's what it's all about. The whole show is an evangelical sales promotion from a jesus freak.

I'd love to see someone (competently) rig their own house as a spook house (maybe a magician) and then call the team in, luring them with a phony story, then scare the living crud out of them that night.  That'd be awesome..    Then in the morning, reveal how it was done and how gullible they are.

I'd love to see that on TV!!  Kind of like "Scare Tactics" but directed at ghost hunters.  It'd separate the wheat from the chaff for one thing – those that debunked it would prove they're better, less biased teams that could maintain some rationality.

Hopefully, Heather has left the show already and moved on to better things.  She is seriously cute – the only thing worth paying attention to!

THAT BASTARD !!!

I hope you're serious because I'm going to agree with you. He's the American Dream personified. A man with little talent and no money but great dreams. And he did, as someone once said, produce movies from Hollywood, CA….

Anyway, they're light-years ahead of that crap the Lifetime Channel puts out.

Oh, to get back on topic, yea, PS is pathetic.
