| Speaking of poltergeists, is it true that they tend to occur in areas of high limestone concentrations?

This was the first I had heard of it Urisk. I've had a quick look on the web and it seems to be quoted quite a bit. I wonder who's research that was based on? Not sure what I make of it or why it would be true. I once heard of one on the Isle of Lewis and that is not well known for it's limestone. |

| I think it was also mentioned on one of these TV Ghost Programmes by their resident experts  . They'll pay anyone to talk a load of s*** these days. It was something about limestone and quartz crystals having an effect on pre-pubescent girls if I got the jist of it correct. |

Unfortunately I can't remember much more than that, but does it jog any memories? |
Thats the Mackenzie poltergeist! arent you coming with us to visit it in february?  |
Aha, you're right. Hopefully I will manage that
