still unsure how that could have happened with the logo, I run a few PHP forums and I know how tight the security is around them so no chance of ppl getting in to change graphics.

As for the above posts of binary characters, they can only have been edited by the author or Admin, so one of them has to be around still to have done it

Pretty snappy dresser then for a guy in his late thirties/early forties who worked in Administration. Particularly for a guy that would have been born around the early 1930's. My dad was born around the same time, later though towards the end of the 1930's and I cannot recall him or any of his contempories dressing like that in 1971, just too culturally unacceptable. If you had been killed in your late teens early twenties then this mode of dress would have been more realistic. Dressing like a mod at forty years of age in 1971 I don't think so.

These guys would have thought it unconceivable to wear jeans and docs at this time. Hell my Dad only started wearing jeans in the late seventies early eighties when everybody wore them and some of his friends never made the transition to jeans and he is would be 10 years younger than you.

Think you cocked it up Michael, pretty plausable till then, unless of course you worked in the music industry.

Not at all my friend. In fact, there were plenty of people that dressed this way in their late thirties. Where are you from may I ask? Certainly in my circle of friends there were plenty. I would not say that I was overly trendy but I did dress with the fashion.

Television programs of the early seventies influenced the oldies too you know. Now think about the fact I worked in the fashion business not the music industry.

Are there any other questions as I feel it is late at night for you all

Well I bid you goodnight then. I do hope you do not stay up too late. Lack of sleep is not a good thing for the living. It can turn you into a zombie.

Goodnight all.

Michael

Ha Ha Ha! Give over,clutching at straws now are we. I was alive during time I remember how people dressed. Men of that age group or era would not have dressed like that. Not even on the telly mate. Sorry may have skim read the bit about you being in the fashion industry all of a sudden, what previous post did that come from? If a forty year old dressed as a mod or more like a skin from your description he'd be laughed at or arrested. What colour were the docs then?

Make your own minds up. But in my opinon, the posts that have just been writen after the two digi encriptions which wherei think from two computers, is the same person who wrote the peice on the break in the other day and not the story teller. I also know that two messages from MP the other day one came from Canada and the other France.

logic is an argument constructed on premises that are both relevant and acceptable....reason is the human capacity to determine if a premises is relevant and acceptable

Michael, thanks for your reply tonight icon_smile.gif

I feel funny about taking up any space at all on this forum talking about my situation but I will say just a little since Michael has recommended it.

I'm not psyhic or even particularly sensitive and never gave the paranormal much thought.

Four years ago I moved into a home that is approximately 160 years old in one of the first settled areas of Canada. There has never been a tragedy associated with my house. It's a lovely, welcoming home. Actually, usually welcoming is what most people say they feel. Despite this, people had moved in and out of the house frequently and never spoke of it being haunted - in public.

Anyway, during the first week, I went from being a skeptic to a total believer, so you can imagine some of the things that began happening almost immediately. My spirits had obviously mastered the operation of electrical appliances and lights. My youngest daughter and I were able to see them. The best I can describe what we see is human shaped white misty forms that will move about, for example, down the stairs or through a room. They were able to create some pretty interesting sound effects to get attention. Also an item might disppear when you were positive as to it's location. A search would ensue and almost without fail, if we said "please, we need that health card back!" it would reappear in the most unlikely spot. So you get the idea...probably just classic signs that a house is shared by living and dead.

So without a doubt I knew they were here, began talking to them and began finding out who they were. I don't need to see something move across the room or watch my television come one or a door open and close - though I never object because it's always quite an awe inspiring thing to witness - the realization that we don't need to exist in these bodies to exist. There's so little we, as humans know, and this had taught me that. Anyway, what I want to say is basically, I just KNOW without a doubt when they are around me. Without the sound of a voice, I sometimes know what they are trying to convey. For instance, Mary Slater loves it when newcomers come to the house. How sociable she must have been in life! When I am greeting or saying goodbye near a doorway, she will almost always come along and I can feel her anxiest over the person leaving. I've gotten in the habit of reminding her that so and so will return. And fortunately, a few of my friends have been quite sensitive and treat her with friendliness when they visit.

Forgive me Sandy Roads (see her post a couple of pages back) for outting you, but Sandy is a long time friend who visits and she has also met Mary and is a firm believer. She has her own story to tell about her experience here with Mary.

Well, I have Mary, who obviously I have become friends with. With Mary is a little boy named Timothy who passed away here in the early part of the 20th century. Mary herself was here from 1902 to 1939, passing away in 1942. She is buried up the road along with her husband John and son, Howard. And we have a much earlier spirit, Harland, who was a groundskeeper/caretaker here around 1850. He has developed his abilities well over all these years and continues to do his best.

There are just too many stories for me to tell, and this is Michael's forum and I really didn't intend this lenghty post and have probably said what I need to say. If anyone has questions, please feel free to pm me as I had no intention of taking any space away from the topic at hand here.

Just please, please have an open mind and heart towards the idea of ghosts. I know they are as real as anything tangible in this life and they've changed my outlook forver.

Okay *shy smiles* Thanks. Back to previously scheduled programming.

why has michael reregistered on the forums?
the original MP registered on the 15th jan, the latest MP did so on the 21st jan

if the binary code was from a friend leaving a message, why is it the friends account(one created on 21st jan) that is now replying as michael?

looks like a balls up to me, youve left the wrong account logged in icon_wink.gif
