Switching to chat... I'm very interested but wary. From the responses, and from what I heard on tv, it sounds very similar to letting a genie out of a bottle. (And the 'orginal' genies [djinni] were very bad dudes!) I jokingly asked my husband if we could play with the ouija outside, and he said he thought "they" would follow me. Him. Whomever. Follow? And how do you make them go away? Of course, a person has to believe a ouija can do anything at all before getting that far with the questions, but I have heard some strange stories too. And you don't just "get" who you ask for, from all the stories I've heard. You just open the door and someone comes in. Very strange. So, I've stayed away from it, simply because I don't think I know enough about it. I'm not sure anyone does. And a little ignorance goes a long ways... <g> Jan G. ----Original Message Follows---- From: "Mellie" <Mel@i12.com> Date: Mon, 6 May 2002 14:25:02 +0100 Ouija scares the hell out of a lot of folk, my dad had a hysterical turn when my mom and her friend were "playing" with one many years ago! it used to be made by waddingtons and sold in Wollworths, now you can't get one anywehre, folk think you are nuts or a witch if you wnat a ouija board, me I am fascinated by that stuff! i wanna come play!
