Excellent point Mr B. I have often thought when watching Ghost Hunters doing "EVP work" that one could take a recorder ANYWHERE, run it for hours while asking questions -- and the results would reveal some kind of random noise which made it seem like it was a "ghost" responding to a question. But I admit, I haven't done it myself, so it's only a theory.

I'll mention something else that has bothered me about how TAPS does "EVP work" (oh sure, real hard "work" isn't it? haha). And that is that they are sometimes shown putting the recorder down on a surface (like a table top) and then also their hands and arms -- which makes me think that some movement by that person will cause noise and be picked up by the recorder. I believe I recently saw in one episode that Grant put a recorder down on a bed and then sat on the bed alongside it -- which doesn't seem terribly bright to me. Also possibly from just holding the recording device in their hands, if they move their fingers around, some noise might be generated. This is the same kind of reasoning TAPS would use to "debunk" reports of paranormal activitiy by clients so I'm surprised to see these things being done.

Oh well, no big deal. For me personally, watching Ghost Hunters has become comparable to reading a fiction novel. It's not real but I can still pretend that it is and enjoy it.
