=============================================
Dont you think its strange that people that have Died in our living
memory... have NOT come back yet ?
We (claim to) see 'Ghosts' from WWI and WWII and the people that have
died many years ago ! How come that we dont see 'Ghosts' from recent
years ?
Why dont we see Ghosts of people that have died during our own
lifetime ?
Is there a time limit ?
We also report 'Ghost Dogs' BUT 'Ghost Cats' ? Erm... Not so popular !
