One good central site is:
http://www.missingpersons.org
It is run by over a hundred volunteers, and by all accounts looks
very good.
As already stated MODS, please do not delete as these are factual
HELPFUL sites (which you can check yourselves).

Is there not a web site that you
can enter a name to see if they have been listed as missing?

Just checked it out, but there is
nothing proving he is who he says he is. There is another link
on there to a web page, about a woman lookin up her family tree,
here her dad went missing, the same time this Michael Pennington
claimed to have died. But he doesnt mention anything bout family.

yeah as previously stated it
would make a good book or a movie !, also i rememebr there was a
case years ago where a so called spirit was communicating via a bbc
micro , which i cant remember programme it was on said that there
was no disc in drive etc so owner of house left bbc micro on and
spirit talked to them through that , only thing was it was stated
that the bbc could not be networked , which was strange cos bbc
micros at our school were !

Surely if this person has been
missing for 30yrs, then there should be someting some where about
him. He has now given his name to Janet so she should be able to do
a search for this person. Also why does he not tell her about the
forum he is writing on. She would be able to read his story and
investigate the area which he has said is where he is. Otherwise a
good story.

OK so this guy is walking along a
canal in Oldbury which means we are looking at only a few miles of
canal. He says he is walking along the "walkway" - this is the
towpath. Now I am going to get very technical and dull here so stop
me if I get boring.
The towpath is just that - its the path used by the horses when
towing the boat. Canals were busy places and it was an offence to
block the towpath.. it is highly unlikely that a building on the
towpath side of the canal would have either been used for
maintainance or would have had "commercial" access to the canal as
this would have blocked the towpath. Premixed concrete is not likely
to have been poured from a "barge" especially in the 70s-90s as that
sort of traffic just wasn't carried.. the only people with that sort
of kit would be British Waterways and they would only carry it like
that to remote sites. If they had carried it to a site then that
would indicate that the property belonged to them.. which narrows it
down even further.

A little reality goes a long way.
Ooh, that was a bit deep for this time of day wasn't it?

If he is a spirit like he says he
is, then why when typing on the laptop doesn't he ask Janet to find
his body so he can 'move-on'. Surely, he would do that first. I
think it is a good story, and nothing else!

Sounds very suspicious I must
say. If he's holding back information because he doesn't want to
draw attention to the place, then I'd say it's probably because he
knows he could get caught out. Also, why bother getting in contact
in the first place if he doesn't want the attention? And,
finally...in order to know how to use a message forum he would have
needed to have passed away very recently, and to have had the
technical knowledge during his lifetime. I think someone is pulling
your leg.

hi there everyone, I thought you
might be intersted in a message board posting I found yesterday. A
guy claiming to be from the other side who wants to communicate to
the outside world is telling his story there. What he is saying is
very interesting but because I have never heard anything like this
before it is difficult to say if it is not someone pranking about.
The link to the message board is here:
http://www.birminghamuk.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=386
If he would give out some more history on the place and how he
died someone out there might have the means to investigate. But as
he says he doesn't want to draw too much attention to the building.
But wow! if it was real it would be great for most haunted to go
there and investigate
Please let me know what you all think about this, if he is having
a laugh then at least he is a pretty good story writer!
