Allow me to resurrect this old thread.  ;D

Just downloaded a new book on my Kindle Fire called "Paranormal Technology - Understanding the Science of Ghost Hunting" by David Rountree. Most books about science and the paranormal don't have much to offer, but this one is great! I highly recommend it.  :)

Okay....I gotta check that out!!!

Brian,
Have you tried the moon phase pro app on your kindle?

Gotta check that one out also.

PPI Brian

Thank you, Debra. The moon app looks really cool and it's only 99 cents. I will have to download it tonight. ;D

I finally downloaded a copy on Kindle today. As soon as I started reading, I was hooked. He writes well,as well as knowing what he is talking about.
I love his humor:

"Please! I have fallen into a potential quantum perplexity and I can't get up!" - end of chapter 29

I think Mr Rountree might appreciate a book review from us on our blog at some point in the future.
(The latest form of book review is blogging. Once you start blogging about books, authors/publishers will be wanting to send of books to you for free.)

Thanks for the suggestion Brian!  :)

I think book reviews would be a FANTASTIC idea!!!!  Love it utterly.  Thank you, Debra.  That's the missing piece of the critical mass for this site that I couldn't think of.  We've recommended books and provided abstracts, but actually reviewing books is something we could add to our Blogspot and to our article base here. 

You be smahhrt! :)
If you want to end your misery, start enjoying it, because there's nothing the universe begrudges more than our enjoyment.

I agree. That's an excellent idea, Debra. We should probably link to their website and ask for a banner exchange. Here's their link: http://www.spinvestigations.org/

That is allot of impressive material. I love quantum approach.
He has a really expansive perspective, which I think is the way to go.
The Dzogchen (that I was being taught by Lama Gyatso) practices/philosophies have a similar approach to the paranormal.

This does sound like a book after my own heart and mind.  I will have to check it out. :)

Tried to find that book by doing a search on my Kindle and couldn't come up with it.  Will try the link that Debra posted.
