Ghost Mine

Slightly off topic but interesting i thought..

In 1869, in the December 17 issue of The Los Angeles News it was reported that a smooth slate wall covered with strange alphabetic writing had been discovered in a coalmine. The letters were raised and well defined. When chiselled away, the coal that had covered the wall bore their distinct impression, which confirmed that the wall dated to a time when the coal was formed. The coal was from the Carboniferous era, well over 200 million years old.

In 1891, close to Cleveland, Tennessee a length of wall was discovered which extended for about a thousand feet. It was on average 2 feet thick and 8 feet high, with numerous projections spaced along the top every 30 feet or so. Its position dated it geologically to over a million years old. The wall was composed of red sandstone blocks. Along one stretch of wall a number of the sandstone blocks were covered with the hieroglyphs of a mysterious language. All together, 872 individual characters were recorded.

While shot blasting a coal seam in 1928, a miner found, among the dislodged coal, blocks of concrete about a foot across. The faces of the blocks were highly polished. The remainder of the wall disappeared into the coal seam. A second miner working a coal face about 100 yards away struck what seemed to be the same wall. Another coal miner in West Virginia claimed miners had found a well constructed concrete building.

On June 27 in 1969, workmen cutting into a rock shelf situated on the Broadway Extension of 122nd Street, between Edmond and Oklahoma City, found an inlaid tile floor 3 feet below the surface, and covering several thousand square feet. A form of mortar was found between the tiles. It was dated at 200,000 years old.

I watched it, thought it was strange in the beginning, but enjoyed the episodes, hope they continue next year.

I just finished the last episode, it was fun, a well told story...and about 8% true, IMO.

8% true? Or 8% is unexplained?

I think most of the show is true, there is a mine, miners are working in it, these miners (and the Ghost Hunters) experience some strange things, etc. I just think much of their evidence is misidentified. And the scene with the girl hiding from a shadow person seemed staged, not only the incident but the reaction - people weren't nearly panicked enough.

Other than that, the Girls Gone Wild star was more fun to watch than a fat plumber.
