I think she was trying to say that instead of complaining about how they were, do something about how they are. I didn't read that she was attacking ghost photographers (of which I include myself) specifically...

I, however, will. As someone who has been photographing ghosts since the late 90s, the sudden interest in it really pisses me off. Now that there are TV shows with people who, by the way, seem to go out of their way to break every rule for ghost photography, every idiot with a camera is seeing orbs. I looked at one picture someone took, then promptly smacked them for claiming that their cigarette smoke was a ghost. I'm so sick of reading the "OMG, it's a gohst orb!" posts on here. Did anyone stop to think that it might just be dust? These are old buildings... Motts isn't trying to photograph dust, so he doesn't have to check conditions like we do. What was the pollen count? What was the weather like? Knowing your surroundings is so important, and in photos like Motts' you can't know what he captured unless you were there and know there wasn't anything else.

To those who are attempting to photograph ghosts and are doing it right, I salute you and say thank you. To everyone else: you're making us look bad. Get another hobby.

Ok, if you mix the CIA in it, I would believe it. They did extensive testing with LSD, and more information is coming out all the time. I guess I was more looking for information that doctors on their own were testing patients, but this was a very good read too. Thanks for linking to it! This will be in my nightmares tonight with the sitz baths...

Well, I'm ok with hearts, but my specialty is more towards the sitz use and less towards the heart use. :D I can, however, do quick temporary repair work on broken hearts as needed, especially as a "bounce-back" surgeon...

More importantly, is it yours or someone elses?

God, I paid over $50 for my last pair, but it was worth it. How often do you get shoes covered in skulls?

I never understood the deal with razor wire. Why let them get that high? Why not just put an electric current through the fence and be done with it? I guess if it were raining it wouldn't work...

Those are either Converse AllStars (Chuck Taylor's for our UK friends) or a really good imitation of them! I don't think I have a pair of white AllStars... Any in a size 12? :D
Of course, then there is the question, why are they providing name brand shoes to inmates?

You mean I'm not the only person who saw that movie? Wow, I'm amazed!

"but sex was no more "gross" than if you were as sane as Socrates!"

Well, ignoring the fact that I think Socrates was insane, all I can think is that you just weren't doing it right! :D My crazy sex has always been gross, or at the very least bizarre... That's why the window is so foggy!

It looks like it is trying to shed a cocoon from itself, and return to its more "natural" form.

I'm glad you didn't know how to fix the tungsten lighting when you took these. They take on a totally different aspect, and seem harsh and unreal. These could have been taken in the bleachers on Mars!

Who's up for a swim? :D
I wish they still made things as beautiful as this. You never see this kind of attention to detail anymore...

Dig the title, sounds like something from a horror movie. Can you hear the promo in your head? "Come visit the Atrium... of DEATH!"

Any idea why these died while the carpet decided to grow?

Hey, what's with all the butt hating? My butts not ugly...

Those buildings, however, are hideous! They look like something that Wright would create in his nightmares!

Rinse it out real quick, and it's as good as new! Anyone care to join me? I am a doctor, so it's for medical purposes of course... :D (Like that Lynne?)
