Where is Frau Blucher ?
Mariposa,
You took the time to write a lenghtly analysis of your opinion / experiences and what you found here written on the board by other viewers. I think perhaps you took what was being said about past practice out of context, I believe the point here is not that people were tortured so much by staff, or doctors, more-so - that there were people who endured the disease (dis - ease) of so called mental ilness and were placed into Asylums to live out their life in a lock down situation.
We, today, look back and see that much of our acceptable behavior might have warranted that we be placed in an asylum in the past... for things such as - having a child out of wedlock, or being promiscuous, abusing alcohol, even being indigent was enough to place you in an Asylum.... this I believe is where the "torture" aspect is being view from..... these people would not have been insane, but at that time, perhaps only different. (that would be torture) Looking at that as a potential in our own lives is a very scary thought. And,,,.. on top of that there were real abuses - as you stated.....

Lastly, I am one of those whom you are amused by, as I myself have looked at a number of Motts pictures and see what appears to be the image of a person in spirit form..... perhaps you need to look at the pictures again.... What exactly would "Motts carefully going on each picture " acomplish? Have you asked Mr Motts if he has seen anything in any of his pictures? There are a few that he says he cannot explain , such as why a person / spirit is staring through a window in one shot he took and another white image in a window of what seems to be a man with his hand over his brow.....
Why would the fact that everyone else sees these images and you don't cause you to chuckle at Them????

I used to be terrified of the plug in the tub. Absolutely terrified.

Also; one time I was swimming in a lake, and no matter how deep it is here, you can't see the bottom (Saskatchewan. Mmm. Algea.). ... so one time I stepped on something slimy, that collasped underneath me. I still have no idea whether it was a cardboard box or a carcuss of a dead bird. ... not that either of them really makes any sense. Boxes don't hold up and dead birds float.
My point is, I tohtally have no idea as to what the hell it was.
Well David.....

HVAC! :-) Heating, ventilation, and air conditoning!

I always remember seeing the hideous slime creatures from hell hiding out in these HVAC crawl spaces in all the swell old sci-fi movies, so I am afraid to say that if I were ever trapped in one of these rooms, I would seriously think twice about trying to shimmy out via one of these, because I KNOW what's waiting for me in there. 8`-)

It just made me think of how awful it looked there last week with all the water in the houses. Some of the pix of home interiors looked a little like this. :-(
