jeff, you seem to say that the voice is actually a recorded waveform on
your recording medium, and not an imagined meaning in your own mind. if
this is so then it takes physical forces to impose order on the random
hash present. even if the energy output is very miniscule it still takes
a physical force to even manipulate electrons into some kind of
recognisable data. not to mention the intelligent knowledge of various
recording methods and media needed to affect the successful transfer of
communication. a different recording method would be useful to help sort
this out. i propose this.... a box. a sealed closed box with a glass
top. a tube could be inserted to introduce one single puff of talc, or
baking flower or fingerprint dust or even cigarette smoke. if there are
spooks and they are able to manipulate forces or circumstances that can
have any effect on your recorder, then to control the movement and
distribution of this dust should be easy. as it falls, it could display
written words, or images just as before. after all this is just a very
primitive form of recording. it only requires some form of control over
the tiny particles, similar to magnetizing a signal on the tiny magnetic
particles of recording tape but requiring less energy and less knowledge
on the part of the spook. if no unusual patterns are evident in our
"primitive" recording then i propose that the images imposed on the
sophisticated recordings are suspect. i am sure that many other methods
of recording could be thought up. maybe an etch-a-sketch screen?
powdered iron on a sheet of paper? stir up something into water to see
how it settles out? any of these should be easily influenced compared to
the electronic recorder.
