Housecleaning

In an effort to clean up the blog archives, I'm removing stuff that's no longer relevant, including most of my political commentary. I want the blog to be focused on the paranormal, without the distractions provided by outdated posts on Hurricane Katrina and the controversy over waterboarding. 

In retrospect, I probably never should have used this platform for political issues, but when I started the blog, I had no idea what I would talk about (which is why I gave it the anodyne title "Michael Prescott's Blog"). I just nattered on about any subject that interested me. Although the emphasis gradually shifted to parapsychology and especially life after death, I never completely lost the habit of posting opinions on current controversies, humorous or bizarre Web content, books, movies, etc. 

Little of this is still of interest, if it ever was, and nowadays I find I disagree with a lot of my old opinions. So I'm sweeping out the Augean Stables. 

Categories that have been emptied out will be deleted. The first to go is "Current Affairs." Others will follow. But the paranormal posts and accompanying reader comments will remain. Even where I disagree with a position I once took on some issue of psi or the afterlife, I want to leave these old posts around as evidence of the development (whether evolution or devolution) of my thinking.

Are you anywhere else, as in to talk or readd about you?

Also. What is that story that little girl that, sine birth, could not talk, then sudenlly before dying, sang a beutifull song that made two doctors cry?

Thank you. Augusto Braho.

I’m on Facebook. But I’m afraid I talk more about current events than anything psi-related.

The story you mention sounds familiar, but I don’t remember any details. Sorry.

Hope you're doing well MP. I still refer to this blog quite often. It's a stellar resource. Pruning the non-para stuff makes perfect sense.
