Electronic OUIJA Boards? reach out and scam someone......This was on Art Bell the other night......
Cathy calls home frequently, Copeland says
Hi Mom, its me Cathy again. Listen I have this really great friend who lives in New Jersey and goes by the name dead on the internet. Its very important that you empty your savings account and mail the cash to dead! His address is
Whatever helps the survivors get through their grief. I just hate to think that someone is getting rich by preying off of them.
Back in '96 or '97 there was a site that, for a fee, promised to take your e-mailed prayer, convert it to binary code, and beam it into deep space.
I'm still shaking my head over that one.
I think it's the voice of Marlena Dietrich speaking from a 10-year old grilled cheese sandwich.
Wow that is so weird. My dead grandmother keeps telling me to send all my bills to "dead in New Jersey". I hope Cathy's mom has enough to cover them all.
Thomas Edison was right! Who would have thought it! He was ahead of his time, having worked on this in the late 1800s or early 1900s. True fact! He did. (Of course it didn't and doesn't work) :)
Don't tell microshaft! I guess if this takes off, I'll see spam for "noise-filtering software to contact the dead" in my inbox among all those "enhancement" and "refinance" offers. It going to make fishing the emails from the guy in Nigeria, with the millions he wants to transfer to my bank account, that much more difficult.
So whaddya know, not only do they vote, but the dead now speak!
I just got a call from Cathy, she said she thinks you are so hot. I asked what that meant and she said, "Think about it!"
Now, as a Christian and as someone with more than 2 functional brain cells, I don't believe in this stuff for a minute BUT hearing clips of this is just about the creepiest thing I have ever done.
I think it's so creepy because humans are hard-wired for pattern recognition and the suggestion is that we are hearing the dead and well.......creepy!
I believe the dearly departed do watch out for the living. As for communication, there's no way to get messages to the beyond and back. We will have to wait for the reunion in the next life.
When the prophets get communication from on high, they always went to a "high" place - ditto the Shamans.
I'd be a little leery about communications coming thru in the basement ;o)
Yeah, but she talks nonsense. She said Kerry was gonna win.

Sounds to me like someone is cashing in on other people's misery.
