Ghosts? Maybe it's just infrasound....
"MANCHESTER, England (Reuters) -- Mysteriously snuffed out candles, weird sensations and shivers down the spine may not be due to the presence of ghosts in haunted houses but to very low frequency sound that is inaudible to humans.

British scientists have shown in a controlled experiment that the extreme bass sound known as infrasound produces a range of bizarre effects in people including anxiety, extreme sorrow and chills -- supporting popular suggestions of a link between infrasound and strange sensations."

1. Great!
That explains my psychotic episodes, now I just need to root out the source of that infrasound in my house.......

Seriously though this is good stuff. If I have any faith at all it would have to be called "Scientific Methodism".

2. Wait,
there must be quite a bit of infrasound in US because I just heard some people say they support Stump.

3. "extreme bass... produces a range of bizarre effects"
The people I know who listen to hip-hop are anything but anxious and sorrowful. :)
