The paranormal is discouraged in this echo. That is one of the chief
reasons Roger and I got involved with the BAMA echo, where subjects
like the paranormal aspects of UFOs and highly speculative or "alien"
influence on the construction of the pyramids can be discussed. The
folks who enjoy the paranormal discussions have taken them to BAMA and
META_UFO where they are welcome.
