Recently we have begun posting some op ed pieces to combat the ever increasing tendency of less than perfect postulations concerning the paranormal field of study and investigation (ghost hunting, ghost hunters, ghost hunting tools, ghost hunter equipment and so on). This developing tendency is just to big to capsulate into one single page. Below are some editorials that range from our personal rants on industry issues, including ghost hunting, to more scholarly scientific journal type entries, to that of a simple opinion editorial. We highly recommend that you start at the top and finish in that order at the bottom! Enjoy below, the title of the op ed along with a brief snippet from the body of the piece:

Paranormal Investigating Equipment 101 Not ghost detectors. We'll save the fact that: #1. Ghosts have not been universally agreed upon in definition—ever. #2. No one has ever discovered a scientific piece of equipment that can quantifiably detect ghosts (see #1). We'll be saving the above two painfully obvious facts and the myriad of implications all for numerous other editorials. Today we are looking at paranormal investigating equipment as a whole. EVP 101 - The Human Variable The proliferation of EVP on the ghost shows has brought on an overwhelming number of inquiries at GetGhostGear.com.

Yes the purpose of this op ed is to share knowledge on EMF (electromagnetic field 'for now') meters. However we need to start even before the EMF meter is in hand. Wait...that's not far enough back, we need to start even before the word leaves our mouth.

Paranormal Investigating Equipment 102

In paranormal investigating equipment 101 we discussed a generalized scientific approach focused heavy on quantifiable data. The formation of an institute to act as a holding of research archives and focused on disseminating quality knowledge would aid in accomplishing this. That's all fine and well, but not a current reality.

So what do we have today? A magnitude of fragmented, cross-demographical, hunters, researchers and investigators with varied skill-sets. Alright, so how exactly can we apply some of the procedures or the general approach to the investigations that are taking place right now?

EMF Meters 102 As we start this opinion editorial 102, I'll assume that you have already progressed through the first to 'required' readings, Paranormal Investigating Equipment 101 , and EMF Meters 101 . To review, we have established what we are using scientific equipment for, and one main reason we are monitoring electromagnetic fields in our investigation location. This op ed we will discuss the second main reason we should be monitoring electromagnetic fields during our investigations. EMF Meters 103 Let's address another very serious question but one that is a bit more straight forward to answer. Why should we want to monitor electromagnetic fields during investigations into reports of paranormal phenomena? Why indeed! Many theories abound, but we will focus on just one experimentally substantiated by Dr. Michael Persinger. The Magnetic Anomaly Detection System
