    I知 exploring scepticism

    I found this shocking and I'm having my eyes opened.

    In 2001 Altea inherited a farm in Dorset, Vermont from Llewella Day, an elderly cancer victim. Ms. Day changed her will shortly before she died, thereby cutting her family out and leaving the $740,000 farm to Altea, with the desire it remain a working farm. Altea successfully fought Day's family's attempts to invalidate the will, and預gainst Ms. Day's wishes妖emolished the farm house to make the farm into a "a healing foundation".[2][3] The family argued in court that Altea used "undue influence to convince a dying woman to change her will."

    Listening to Michael Shermer on audio and experiencing many 'Oh my God!' moments. And his explanation of what a sceptic is is very helpful.

    Rose, have you come across Sylvia Browne? You will be able to carry out your own searches, but here is a start. It is a bit old, now, but she is still at it.

    Light travels faster than sound. This is why some people appear
    bright, until you hear them speak.
