MICHELLE GRIFFIN [BABBLING BABS] LOSING CREDIBILITY

Babbling Babs' credibility ship is sinking fast! Last week Ron Tebo got a call from her as she said that she was very upset about Chip Coffey's hate speech. She didn't know he would do such a thing and claimed she was only laughing at Chip sticking his face into the camera lens.

We aren't sure why she called Ron Tebo. Maybe she figured that her well known charms directed towards male para-celebs normally get her what she wants. I publicly [as well as contacting Ron myself] said if she would write a post for the Eye on the Paranormal stating this and condemning bigotry in general I would no longer mention her in reference to this incident. To date there has been no response. Babbling Babs was lying about the whole thing.

Not to rehash the whole video, but watch it yourself. She was laughing long before Chip stuck his face into the lens. Chip brought up my blindness on the Psychic Kids page. Babbling Babs and Sandra Sparks [Old Sparky] even did a series of blogs about it. This kinda tells me that this whole action was planned from the start. As for Babbling Babs, did you know … ?

MICHELLE GRIFFIN [BABBLING BABS] WORLD-RENOWNED PSYCHIC!

Babbling Babs did a gallery reading over the weekend. In the press release she was classified as a "world renowned psychic." When she was with Mr. Burns there was no mention of her being psychic. When she was with Mr. Moon, no mention of her being psychic. But she gets around Mr. Coffey and she becomes a world renowned psychic? May we ask what major prediction has she ever made? The only thing we can come up with is that Chip freely teaches the tricks of the trade to anyone. 

CHIP COFFEY POSES AS SANDRA SPARKS [OLD SPARKY]!

We've learned that Chip Coffey has been known to post as Sandra on the Psychic Kids pages [the old and the new ones]. He even had a heavy hand in the blogs that are full of lies and misinformation that Old Sparky posted about Ron Tebo and me.

Speaking of Old Sparky…

She started a new Psychic Kids page to make up for the lost revenue her bosses suffered from due to A&E stepping in and blocking her from posting links to the Chip Coffey Clan's pages and websites. The new page is the same as the old page with predators and profiteers posting there. But more on that next week.

OLD SPARKY'S RANTS - PART 2

This week's plate addresses a blog posted by Sandra/Chip/Chris that is so full of errors we almost lost count of 'em!

Health issues sometimes reflect what is going on inside a person. I am not cold to the fact that Kirby Robinson is losing his eyesight, but the old saying about "what you don't use, you lose," seems to be coming true for him. A narcissist never looks past his own face. Kirby pretends to, but he only looks at things he believes will make him look even better. At this point, Kirby is the reverse of Dorian Gray: He keeps a portrait of himself in his mind that is young and handsome and heroic. How heroic? Kirby once wrote that "some people think I am Superman." The "some people" is Kirby.

The outside man shows an aging Hippy who would have no direction if he didn't have an obsession that supports his narcissism.

Kirby has a savior complex. He isn't following Jesus Christ, he has to be the savior!

He believes that repeatedly quoting scriptures and saying he is a true Christian will give him victory over his enemies. Never mind that a few months ago he claimed on a radio show that he was Buddhist, which is not compatible with Christianity. I don't think he knows much about real Christianity anymore than he knows things about real Buddhism. Zen meditation practice is the only Buddhist method that you can comfortably use and keep a Christian faith. Otherwise - you end up with a practice as split as Kirby's reasoning about many things.

I used to be a Zen Buddhist, until I realized my psychic experience did not hold up the Buddhist model of emptiness - I found the energy of the universe quite full. I left Buddhist practice as soon as I fully understood it. I haven't seen a sign that Kirby understands either Christian or Buddhist concepts.

For one thing: Kirby can't keep himself from lying. It's a compulsion.

In the middle of the Psychic Kids flame wars, Kirby announced that he was personally flying to Atlanta to meet with the A.B.A. to discuss the qualifcations of Chip Coffey's attorney, who had sent an e-mail to Ron Tebo to warn him to stop libeling Chip as a fraud and child predator.

The American Bar Association? In Atlanta? Why would he have to fly from Los Angeles to see them at all? What would he accomplish on the trip? He could just call or e-mail and find out what he wanted to know. He never did say anything more about the trip.

And...Funny how he didn't take any time off from harassing people that week.

The next week he had his "team of attorneys" serve me with papers suing me over book reviews I had written on his e-books, hysterical that I had used the phrase (justly deserved) that some things in the book were "plain made up." He claimed his lawyers forced Amazon.com to take down the reviews. He also claimed Amazon affirmed that I was always doing "nasty things."

The truth is I deleted the reviews in the wee hours one morning just to see if he would claim he had something to do with it - and he did.

As for the claims of a weekend of conferences with his attorneys - Really? He spent that much money on a bad review, which was not his first? And...he didn't notice the reviews until Sunday. He could contact attorneys in L.A. with a claim on a weekend? Even when asked repeatedly, Kirby would not supply the names of his team of attorneys. He couldn't. There were none.

Of course...I never was served with papers. Kirby doesn't know where I am. I never even received an e-mail from attorneys - that could have been done through my website. And, of course, I would confirm that the e-mail actually came from attorneys, then would send them my evidence about Kirby.

But none of that happened. He just left the idea hanging in the air that he did these things.

In this recent attack on Chip Coffey Kirby claimed that he couldn't file a lawsuit yet because filing for a lawsuit would cost him $25,000. The fee for filing a civil complaint like this varies, but it averages between $300 and $500 across the country. Lawyers get expensive, but he should have already known that since he claimed to spend so much time with lawyers in September.

Kirby claims to be a demonologist and exorcist with 25 years of experience.

Kirby claims he graduated in the class of 1981 from Indiana State University, majoring in history. He does not list a degree. He also claims to have graduated class of 2004 in psychology from Los Angeles City College. It sounds very impressive. If he graduated from IU with, I assume, a bachelor's degree, how did he go back to an Associate's degree level college, and get a degree in psychology? Psychology is taught at LACC, but in preparation for an Associate's degree in Human Services. In other words - it's a prepatory program for social workers, NOT for psychologists. There's no degree in psychology there.

Neither school has courses in demonology, and studies in history can lead to graduate work in theology, which might include demonology. However, unless he were an actual university trained clergyman - well, you get my drift.
Kirby is a fraud. He is just a guy who set himself up as an expert in something he has no training for.

As far as I'm concerned, the only demonologist I will respect as a professional is someone with a degree in theological history with a concentration in some sort of theological lore. For me, though I understand there is negative conscious energy, what we recognize as demons only exist in myths and minds. So, for me, every exorcist is a fraud. That's a long discussion for my blog on Psychic Sensibiliy. Here, it's just one of my firm personal rules - tell me you're an exorcist, and I will not take another word you say seriously.

With Kirby, that's easy. And that's what he hates about me. He wants to be taken seriously.

By the way - Kirby has been "extremely upset" about a video in which Chip Coffey seems to make fun of him being visually impaired. Chip comes up close to the video camera mimicking the only way Kirby can watch television in order to make his assessment of what's going on with the television shows, criticism he wrote about in way too much detail in his self published e-book Paranormal Reality: Investigating Paranormal State. I question his ability to do that as well.

You see, I was temporarily blind when I was a pre-teen. It's sort of hard to get visual detail when you can't see clearly. Very hard.

That's it for this time.

1 Sorry, Sandra /Chip/Chris, or whoever wrote the above blog. Take some time to do your research. I began losing my eyesight early in life. The eye disorder that I suffer from is genetic, which means there is nothing that can be done for it. I had to make the hard choice not to have kids as they could suffer from it and I didn't want to put them through it.

2 It's a very cheap trick to only provide part of a quote "some people think I am Superman." Why not tell the rest? There is only one superman, Sandra, and it is not Chip, Chris or any of the para- celebs that you, Babbling Babs and the other para-backscratchers hang with. That man was Christ.

3 Calling me an old hippie -- is the best you can do? And the narcissism label is so overused. As to my direction, I help people. What do you do Sandra, Chip and Chris? Do you help people or only help yourself to other people's money? As to the savior complex, unlike the CCC, I reject the lie that started in the Garden of Eden. That is the core of the new age which is that man can be like God. Only Christ is the savior -- not me, not any man.

4 Where did YOU get your degree in comparative religion? Your claim that Buddhism and Christianity can't be followed by a person at the same time is not supported by people who know the subject far better than you ever will. You speak of Zen as if it is the only school -- which it's not.

Try Tibetan Buddhism, led by a living Buddha, who along with other masters have published books on the subject such as:

The Good Heart: A Buddhist Perspective on the Teachings of Jesus by His Holiness the Dalai Lama 

Jesus and Buddha: The Parallel Sayings by Marcus Borg 

Living Buddha, Living Christ 10th Anniversary Edition by Thich Nhat Hanh 

Going Home: Jesus and Buddha as Brothers by Thich Nhat Hanh 

I think the world can put more faith in the teachings of these men, than the hate and lies that come out of you and the CCC.

4 Sandra Lynn Sparks really sucks as an investigator. Yes, Sandra I live in L.A. but does that mean I'm always there?  To date, I've been in L.A. for about 4 weeks total as my calling requires me to go and help people in other places. It's starting to look as if I won't make it back to L.A. till early 2012.

5 As to the $25,000 [which at the time they did this blog they didn't know I had talked to Chip's lawyer -- what a bunch of sad psychics these people are] is the amount that Chip's lawyer said he would need up front to take a case against you. But in time all things will be handled.

6 Like all the shameless fakers you work for and worship dearly, you say I make things up, but you never prove them. It's easy to make claims and fail to back them up.

7 Indiana University and Indiana State are two different schools in two different cities in two different parts of the state. Can we say foot in the mouth? Yes we can.

8 Why LACC? Classes were $20 per hour, at that time, compared to Cal State or UCLA which runs $400+ per hour. Due to my legal blindness it was FREE, and is located next to the Braille Institute. As to the focus of the department, here are a few of the classes I took:

Introduction to Psychology   

Introduction to Biological Psychology

Personality Psychology

Introduction to Social Psychology

Introduction to Abnormal Psychology

Intro to Lifespan Psychology

Computer Software for Mental Health Professionals

Group Dynamics 1 & 2

Family Systems

Introduction to Drug & Alcohol Abuse

Introduction to Counseling Techniques

There were six field sites working with people and families in crisis

Stress Management

Along with many other classes

Why did I do this? Sandra and the CCC are so dull and uninformed that I'll have to explain it to them. The majority of demonic or ghost hunting claims have nothing to do with the paranormal. They have more to do with emotional and mental issues as well as things going on within families. I advise anyone who is doing this work to take some form of training that allows them to understand this and correctly direct their clients to places where they can receive proper help.

9 As to my work in demonology, the CCC should spend more time reading the Bible. There is a thing called The Great Commission that Christ shared with his disciples. You get your training out in the field working cases and studying what the Bible and other sacred texts teach on this matter.

10 Notice that Old Sparky has to experience every suffering that others go through. Ron said he was molested. Sandra says she was. I am going blind; she also had a temporary bout of blindness. She says she is suffering due to no job, no money, bad illnesses etc. None of this is true. You see, Sandra is the kind of person who is better than anyone. Her suffering is greater than anyone else's. Her wit and intelligence is above all others. Yes, the term is overused, but it does seem that Sandra's a narcissist.

Just Be Happy!

The Dalai Lama

By Lisa Maliga

We all want to be happy. If we can just be happy, then all our problems will disappear. Despite the tragedies that sometimes overwhelm us, what we see on TV, online, or read in a newspaper, against difficult odds, we still persevere in our quest for that elusive and seemingly fleeting state of happiness.

I received an e-mail with the subject heading proclaiming: "I'm not happy." My initial thought was that it was the sender's problem, and not mine. After perusing the missive, which was sent to several others, I came to the conclusion that the person chose to be unhappy about a temporary situation. It certainly wasn't as serious as the death of a loved one, but for some reason I was reminded of a passage I had read in a book by the Dalai Lama entitled 'The Art of Happiness.' The Dalai Lama recalls: "…I have lost my most respected tutor, my mother, and also one of my brothers. When they passed away, of course, I felt very, very sad. Then I constantly kept thinking that it's no use to worry too much, and if I really loved these people, then I must fulfill their wishes with a calm mind. So I try my best to do that. So I think if you've lost someone who is very dear to you, that's the proper way to approach it. You see, the best way to keep a memory of that person, the best remembrance, is to see if you can carry on the wishes of that person."

No matter how much death and misfortune we've encountered, we all wish to be free from suffering. To achieve happiness, we can go about it in a couple of different ways. We can constantly pursue every material possession, or we can just appreciate what we have. The Dalai Lama writes: "So, the first step to seeking happiness is learning. We first have to learn how negative emotions and behaviors are harmful to us and how positive emotions are helpful. And we must realize how these negative emotions are not only very bad and harmful to one personally but harmful to society and the future of the whole world as well. That kind of realization enhances our determination to face and overcome them. Once we realize that, we become determined to cherish, develop, and increase those positive emotions no matter how difficult that is…now the secret to my own happiness, my own good future, is within my own hands."

The above referenced book was first published in 1998. A few years after having read it, I attended a public talk by the Dalai Lama. Being located near good old Hollywood, California, the event was emceed by the actress, Sharon Stone, who had to do some improvisation whilst the audience awaited the delayed arrival of the Dalai Lama, who was stuck in traffic. She even read the words 'peace' and 'compassion' from the dictionary she had brought along with her, and it struck me as a bit surreal. Almost as strange as the fact that the event was held inside the museum's auditorium at the Forest Lawn cemetery – the final resting place of such household names as: George Burns and Gracie Allen, Humphrey Bogart, Clark Gable and Walt Disney. While I had read many of the Dalai Lama's books, seen movies about him, and watched interviews, seeing him walking towards the small stage just a few feet from where I sat was awe inspiring. There was the maroon and gold robed Tibetan Buddhist monk, looking as friendly and wise as ever. I felt very happy, because the happiest man from Tibet was in the room!

After giving a short speech about his favorite subjects, peace and compassion, he spent more time answering questions that people had written down on cards beforehand. The first questioner wanted to know if violence was ever necessary? The Dalai Lama simply answered, "No!" But that answer wasn't enough so he elaborated a bit.

However, the next questioner was with a group of teens from a detention camp. Most of them were from gang-ridden areas of South Central Los Angeles. A teenager stood amidst her peers and read aloud her question. I don't recall it verbatim, but two words stood out: cruel world. She then wanted to know what to do when someone got in her face. The Dalai Lama replied that Buddha himself didn't have it easy. And he, having to leave Tibet, didn't have a simple life. He told of how the Tibetan people were viewed by the occupying Chinese as inferior. He mentioned a meeting with a black man in South Africa and strongly emphasized that we are all the same. His Holiness looked at the cluster of camp kids and wished he could spend more time with them. The Dalai Lama called for the teen that had asked the question and sprung up from his chair and hurried over to her. An attending monk escorted the African-American girl over, and the Dalai Lama hugged the embarrassed and giggling girl. It was the most spontaneous show of genuine compassion that I had ever witnessed. 

Sometimes I still act impulsively and angrily, temporarily forgetting what I had seen. But after a while, I calm down and recall that wonderful scenario set inside a cemetery on a midsummer day. A man, revered by his countrymen as a God-King, had been so moved by a young person's anguish that he only thought to offer comfort. I think of how that teen was hugged and helped, and so were all the others gathered there.

If something can be put right

Why be unhappy?

If a thing cannot be put right,

What good is being unhappy?

"The Doctor Will See You Now." A Look at The Demon Doctors

By Ryan Harshbarger

Dear Archangels, I, who am deserving of nothing, beseech thee, go now to Our Lord and Our Lady of Good Success and intercede for me, as this poor servant desires to prostrate himself before Them and submit to whatever they desire. As my heart and my entire being belongs to Them, may I, like a small drop of dew, lose myself in the immensity of the Divine Being.  Amen.

Over my 16 years of being involved in the field of paranormal research I have met many people and have come across thousands of theories and methods of contacting and cleansing haunted locations. I have witnessed everything from charlatans take advantage of people's weaknesses and I've been present when valid responses have brought hope to many searching for answers from the other-side. Recently I have noticed a shift in the paranormal community's evidence and their explanations as to what is causing homeowners and business owners to experience things they cannot explain. Perhaps all the recent skepticism that has not only discredited most of the evidence and in some cases even brought shame to many teams has made them look for a new angel that's not so easy to debunk. Whatever the case it seems that demons are the new fashion in paranormal research; everyone seems to be jumping on this bandwagon and trying desperately to ride this crazy train to the very end.

If you are serious about researching the paranormal and have been on more than 5 investigations with a team that actually knows what they are doing, then you're usually aware that almost 99% of the time most of the claims can be explained by natural phenomenon and in many cases just poor upkeep of the locations. Most of the time you're just sitting in dark creepy rooms talking to yourselves for 6 hours without yielding any results at all, “that's just part of it.” In almost all the various spectrum's of this field there is always a group or an individual that claims to be an expert, this I scratch my head on because paranormal research is by no means a perfect science. If it were, then the  legitimate scientific community would acknowledge it as such. Right?

While roaming the Internet I happened to stumble across a team called the “Demon Doctors”. I was floored by this and had to get a hold of these guy's and hear their story, so I sent an email to them and asked if we could do a little interview so I could find out what this mystic and pragmatic pitch was all about. The members are Dr. A. Hasankhani and Dr. J. Dodd. My first question obviously was “are you guy's really doctors?” “Neither of them hold a PhD or an Md” so I was kind of confused. Dr. Hasankhani's explanation to this was “well when you're in need of help and you want someone professional you go see a Dr.” Both gentlemen were very humble and seem like what they're doing is for the benefit of those in need so I gave them praise on that because that's what the world needs more of, “people helping people.” I was curious about how they vanquish the demons and unclean spirits so I asked if they had any affiliation with any church or if their exorcisms were sanctioned by a priest and both denied any affiliation with any church whatsoever. My personal beliefs on this matter are that “the Church should always be involved or at least briefed.”

 Their methods are very unique, Dr. Hasankhani informed me that he uses spirit guides to asses demoniacally infested homes and that him and his partner can actually “call upon the Arch-Angels to enter the homes and vanquish the demons.” They can even do this over the phone, (yes over the phone) they claim to be the only humans on earth that have this gift bestowed upon them to contact and utilize Arch-Angels to engage in combat with demons that are terrorizing families across the U.S.

I asked both gentlemen how they came to have these powers and Dr. Hasankhani's response was that his “spirit guide” informed him of his ability and Dr. Dodd had actually been involved in an accident where he was clinically dead and brought back to life, he later ran into Dr. Hasankhani and he informed Mr. Dodd that he too possessed this ability to call upon the Angels. Both men don't seem concerned with the churches view on people performing these exorcisms and vanquishing demonic forces because both men view their abilities as gifts from GOD. I did go over the Cannon Law 1172 paragraph's 1 and 2 with both men, Dr. Dodd's response was “there are many manmade laws out there and the Churches laws are manmade law, no disrespect to the Church by no means but they are manmade laws.” 

So do these two guy's honestly have a GOD given ability to call upon Angels to vanquish demons? Well, unfortunately I was unable to contact any of their clients to get any sort of validity towards their claims. They do however post many compelling testimonials on their website but by no means can I call that creditable because all the client information is kept sealed tight. I have been a believer in spirit guides for quite some time now and firmly believe that we all do have protectors on the other-side that keep us in check, so that I can buy into but the claims of being able to call upon Arch-Angels without  any theological background nor any deep religious support other than self proclaimed connections I kind of have a hard time buying into. “Personal relationships with GOD is a wonderful thing.” I think that everyone has that connection and if they were not so distracted by all the day to day routines of life we could perhaps hear his calling like those that came before us. Mankind has so many things that push us away from the creator and the theological guidelines that are meant to lead us towards the light, it's sad actually all the deaf ears that have been turned to such a beautiful message.

Obtaining higher levels of consciousness are practices that date back to the first steps of mankind. So if these two gentlemen have somehow managed to tune into a frequency that most cannot, “then why not share this gift with the world?” They don't charge for their services so we can't dub them scam artists by no means, but we can look into a theory of “the power of suggestion” perhaps the clients   that they are helping are not dealing with “biblical demons” but “personal demons” per say, all these clients may need is a guiding voice to somehow use a method of “subliminal rearrangement.” I know that may sound a bit out there as well but look at it like going to counseling. Through a method of breaking down the symptoms and claims, they are able to use a calming voice that somehow convince the clients that what was tormenting them has been cleansed by Angelic intervention. With that refreshing news they are able to take the proper steps of getting a handle on their own troubles. By no means am I saying that this is the explanation of what they are doing, but the human brain does work in very mysterious ways and sometimes a person just needs to be told “everything is OK now” and that can then become the catalyst of a new beginning for them. “So is that a bad thing?”  Are these guy's really calling upon Arch-Angels? That's a question I cannot answer but as long as they are helping people and not making a mockery out of the mission of helping those in need I see no harm done.

April Slaughter Interview About The Probe – Part 1

By Martha Decker Hazzard

Have you been probed yet? Do you know what the Probe, created by Andy Coppock, even looks like? April Slaughter is one of four individuals, in addition to Coppock, who are testing the Probe for its possible ability to assist in communicating with those who are no longer living. Slaughter has spent years in the paranormal community as a researcher, investigator and writer. It was only natural for her to talk to Coppock about his latest paranormal Instrumental Transcommunication device (EVP & ITC). Slaughter calls it “The Probe.”

Slaughter said the device, while similar to other devices on the market is not the same thing. She said that Coppock has modified the internal working of the device. He started using the device while investigating a paranormal case involving an autistic child, according to Slaughter. Then after getting unexpected results, Coppock began testing the device in other ways. He reached out to Slaughter because she has a daughter with epilepsy and there may be a way to help her with the device when she has seizures.

She said Coppock had the device present for a gathering at the Black Swan Inn and she initially went to strictly observe the participation and results. What occurred “changed her life.” This was her first experience with the device. There is a video one can view on YouTube to see how the Probe works, according to Slaughter. She doesn’t like to share any photographs of the device without permission from Coppock. Slaughter has only showed a picture of it once, and that was at the Haunted America Conference in IL and put together by Troy Taylor. She will be back again next summer to talk about how her research has been going with the Probe.

While she was at the Black Swan, Slaughter had an unexpected and unplanned connection with her grandfather through the Probe. She asked to speak with her grandfather. It lasted 11 minutes and has profoundly changed her life. Slaughter said they talked about many family matters, including her daughter and her health. She asked a question everyone wants an answer too – what is it like over there. Her grandfather, commenting on their religious beliefs, told her, “It’s not like we thought.” Slaughter said, “it put me in a state of shock. It seemed like this was the Holy Grail of the paranormal world.” She would have liked it if everyone could have this experience. She said the experience with the Probe has validated her doubts and her beliefs. She feels her grandfather is around often and things he discussed with her were things she has told no one. It was the validation she needed to know that she was speaking with her grandfather. Slaughter said the experience has changed her life, called the event incredible and was able to witness 20 additional conversations held by other participants.

Slaughter has researched and investigated the paranormal for 15 years. She now leans toward ITC research more than going on investigation. Slaughter said there are plenty of investigators in the field to conduct paranormal investigations. EVP work is important to Slaughter. She said that she has seen ITC devices used with successful results. She tries to consistently collect research and has a variety of devices to choose from. Slaughter said she has been fortunate to be able to acquire different devices from several different investors. She has Frank’s boxes that were built for her use by Frank Sumption. She has several different types of mini boxes, ovilus and what is commonly referred to as Radio Shack hacks. You can listen to some of her EVP sessions on paranormalsource.com, where she is a cofounder along with her husband.

Where does Slaughter use the Probe and her other devices? According to Slaughter she conducts most of her sessions at her home. She also visits locations that have given off “good energy.” She feels privileged to have been given the opportunity to work with the Probe and is “very protective” of the device.  She explained that she has not allowed anyone to hold the Probe and believes that she is imprinting with the Probe. Slaughter said that there are ITC devices that don’t seem to work as well when they are used by many different individuals.

Slaughter explained she received the Probe in Feb 2011 and has worked with it on a set schedule ever since it arrived. She said that it took Coppock a while before he was successful in using the device and she is still working on getting it to work well with her. Her routine includes set days and times. It’s important to Slaughter that she does not become obsessed with ITC devices and maintains an even keel with the rest of the world. She knows of individuals who have become consumed with ITC and EVP work. There are paranormal investigations which have come about due to an individual’s obsession with EVP work and what can happen when there are disturbing results. Slaughter believes individuals working with ITC devices should have a specific type of personality and have the ability to turn it off and out it down. She works with the Probe 2-3 days a week for about an hour at a time. She will set in the same place during her sessions and knows something is coming through when fluctuations begin with the Probe. She said it gets louder and louder as it’s approached. She said that a very distinct voice will come through the Probe, which is different than most ITC devices.

Slaughter described the experiences with the Probe and what often happens when it’s in use and interesting. She said the whole environment in her home changes. Knocks are quite common as are hot and cold spots. Slaughter said she has to pay attention and can often hear voices coming from other parts of her home. Now after several months of working with the Probe in her home, Slaughter said she often hears a variety of things occurring even when the Probe is not in use. Slaughter said, “It works,” but is still working on the connections.

Slaughter said it has taken her a while to get results with the Probe, but is a long way off from having it work as well for her as it does for Coppock. She now gets several words at a time for responses and is still trying to establish connection with someone from the other side to help her with the Probe. Slaughter said Coppock told her that she would get help from Don Carson and believes she has only just established a connection with him; she said her grandfather has also told her that he would help her make connections. In fact, Slaughter thinks that some of the information she was given during the session at the Black Swan Inn is now beginning to make sense.

She said that individuals have contacted her and asked her to try and contact family members, but she does not feel comfortable enough with the Probe to do this, but may do so in the future. She said there a device out there that looks like the Probe but it is not the Probe and hopes no one purchases it with the idea it is the same as the one created by Coppock.

Slaughter is the author of “Ghosthunting Texas,” a travel guide to haunted places in Texas. She can be contacted through her website aprilslaughter.com for additional information about her research or her book. She is in the process of producing two new books. One will be on ITC devices and the other on capital punishment.

This is part one of this article. Part two will go into more detail on the Probe.

Chip Coffey Mocks Legally Blind Man/Old Sparky Explodes -- SPECIAL EDITION

By Kirby Robinson

Chip Coffey pretends that he's opposed to hate speech and bullying. He does this so that people think he's a good guy. And since he's such a good guy they'll open their wallets and allow him to dip into them. But it's all an act. He doesn't stand against hate speech; he actually takes part in it along with other members of the Chip Coffey Clan.

I've been attacked as being a narcissist, a very popular catch phrase these days. A psychology professor once told me "only a narcissist would label someone as a narcissist." [Not the same as a professional diagnosis]. This whole episode started with a blog posted by Sandra Lynn Sparks a/k/a Old Sparky [clan members need nicknames] based on the fact that Clueless Chris Fleming told her that I was one. How does having a Fine Arts degree give him enough training to make that judgment? But he did and she ran with it.

Truth struggles to come out and we had this site http://eyeontheparanormal.homestead.com/ pointed out to us. We traced the owner of the site to Toronto, the city in which one of Chip's main attack dogs, back scratchers and a fan of male para-celebs, lives. Ms. X is always willing to do a favor when asked. Almost everyone featured on the page had shown the truth about Chip and his less than honest actions. So they are attacked. My blindness was even made fun of and they mock my guest spot on the Rob and Big show. [The show is one of the most popular on MTV and still gets high ratings when aired]. Below is a close up of my section. This is how the CCC operates.

Chip appeared on Michelle "Babs" Griffin's show. She lives in the Atlanta area and has hung around with Patrick Burns and Chris Moon in hopes of getting a TV show. She feels that Chip Coffey is a master psychic. Babs also made a brief appearance on Psychic Kids. Babbling Babs hosts an event service and a website that hawks fake para-celebs and encourages the gullible to buy stuff. She also drags out the Psychic Kids cast to exploit them some more.

We have established a link to Chip Coffey, Ms. X, [identity to be revealed later this month] and Babbling Babs who all participate in making fun of my blindness. Here is a clip posted by Scifake of the mocking of blind people that Chip did. See the video at this page:

This proves that Chip is a heartless and mean spirited bigot. The same must be said for Babbling Babs and her co-host [who is an African American and is laughing about a person being a victim of bigotry]. Chip is not psychic -- never was, never will be. I knew he was on Babbling Babs' show, and it was as scripted as all the others: Paranormal State, Psychic Kids, Celebrity Ghost Hunt. Chip has yet to prove he's a genuine psychic. Right now he's in spin control mode as he's peddling a wild story that he was a victim of a hate crime. We doubt the story and find it odd that he made this claim when he committed a hate crime himself.

It backfired on Chippy and the CCC. They ran into a person that won't run or cave in and keeps pressing onward and upward. What does a person do when they get caught? They try to engage in behavior opposite of what they did. This makes them hypocrites.

Oct 5 – Chip made fun of me and other blind people, especially those with macular degeneration.

Oct 6 marked the 13th anniversary of the Matthew Shepard killing [hate crime]. Yet Chip took part in hate speech around the same time.

Oct 6 - Claims he was a victim of a hate crime [we doubt the story] less than 24 hours after he took part in hate speech.

Oct7 - Made a big fuss about marching in a Gay Pride Parade in the ATL as an angel. This was done to bring an end to the hate, yet he took part in hate speech. Notice how he had to tell the world about his good works. Doesn't the Bible encourage one to do good works in secret? Guess Chip spends little time reading it.

Oct 7 - He posted this comment as people started to hear what he had done. "Brilliant words: "If I diminish you, I diminish myself." - Desmond Tutu

Guess he can read but clearly that’s talking about what he had done in his hate speech.

Oct 8 - Chip posted this: "To escape criticism, do nothing, say nothing, be nothing." - Elbert Hubbard.

Sounds new agey but does not block him from taking part in hate speech.

Oct 9 – Chip posted a photo of himself dressed as an angel. Do angels take part in hate speech? The only ones that do are fallen angels, so I guess he's admitting that he walks with fallen ones.

Oct 9 - Posted a photo wearing a t-shirt that reads STOP THE HATE. Chip thinks that hate towards gays is bad but picking on disabled people is okay?

Oct 10 - Posted a song about wishing we only had love, a note talking about his part in the march and a photo of a disabled man in a wheelchair holding a sign saying STOP THE HATE. Guess he was really trying to hide his guilt on Monday.

Oct 11 - He posted a new age sign saying you had no right to judge him. It should have read: "Chip has the right to judge and make fun of the blind but no one better judge hum."

The CCC knows they have been caught in the act and the connections between them are coming to light.

More on this later...

OLD SPARKY'S RANTS – PART 1        

Sandra Lynn Sparks posted on a series of blogs attacking Ron Tebo and myself. Over the next few weeks we'll be taking them apart. Here's the first of the series of Old Sparky's Rants.

Posted Monday October 3, 2011 just two days prior to the Chip Coffey's mockery of blind people.

I've been involved in discussion boards since usenet was popular. I've been a poster, a moderator, an administrator, and a board owner.

I have NEVER run into wackier more in-your-face guys than Ron Tebo and Kirby Robinson. And that's coming from someone who used to post on alt.support.depression, where you could run into some really ingenious and mean flamers.

The problem was, the people dealing with depression tended to be a whole lot more intelligent than these two. Ingenious is not part of their package deal. Mean, disturbing, and dishonest are the rules of their very small world.

I know - When you first encounter them they seem a whole lot bigger, with a wider following, but that's due to extremely heavy self promotion, and the use of lots of e-mail personas. I remember Ron from well before he pulled his ultimate publicity stunt, but more on that later on in this blog series.

Today, on his facebook page (which is public view), Kirby Robinson declared about his website: "The Eye On The Paranormal is fast becoming the "Sixty Minutes" of the paranormal world."

I think Ron Tebo of Scifake.com would challenge that boast.

Kirby must duke it out for whether he or Ron Tebo will become known as the "Andy Rooney" of the paranormal world, since the majority of what they post are personal opinions.

Ron, in particular, does not seem to realize his title suggests he goes after scientific fakes. But then, the small crowd that follows him probably wouldn't know what a psifake might mean. All they know is the website is a great place for trolls to find juicy hunting.

So who are these guys? And why would anyone care?

You care when you are constantly dodging or dealing with the feces they fling, like battling monkeys. This blog is of most interest to those who have to deal with them. You'll find some very entertaining and truly useful bits of information along the way.

By the way - before we really begin - I gave the two of them every warning this would happen. They have already posted lots of things about me and others: Ron removing his posts (but not before the posts were copied) and Kirby just going for it, trying to twist everything I and friends do or have done to fit his scheme of things. I will not be doing any twisting: As I wrote before, if they didn't provide the material themselves, on the Internet, it's not going to be used here. It will be directly quoted when it is on a public page, because they already, at the time of recording it, had released that information publicly.

Nothing that will be presented here violates the content policy of this blog service.

So - that's it for now. Who knows how long this blog will become. There are hundreds of references to sort through. Thanks to everyone who pointed me in directions I wish I hadn't gone in without a bio-hazard kit. Imagine what use all that energy dedicated to mean ends could have done, in the hands of decent people. Learn from this. Don't waste your energy being mean. Someday your target might turn out to be able to stand up to you, in ways you never expected.

Not sure if Old Sparky understands what the truth is. Maybe she has been grass dancing way too long [or smoking it] but we'll try to point things out to her and let the public know what is the truth.

1 She fails to mention that she works for Chip running his board. She doesn't tell you she is close to Babbling Babs, nor does she tell you that Chip had her at the Psychic Kids Facebook page acting as a moderator and site attack dog. [No offense to any dogs]. Does she admit that she directed people to boards she owned and was compensated for it via receiving traffic? Did she reveal that she is behind the psychic school and psychic tutor sites?

2 Yes, Old Sparky, EYE ON THE PARANORMAL is becoming like a paranormal 60 Minutes. We're posting new blogs 5 to 7 days a week with guest writers joining in. Unlike the Chip Coffey Clan, we want to help and inform everyone. The CCC only wants to help themselves to other people's money and misinformation.

3 Neither Ron nor I pulled any posts from the Psychic Kids page. That was done by A&E when you tried to become the moderator. A&E took over the page, removing you as the false moderator. So you and the CCC created a Facebook page PSYCHIC KIDS: AFTERWORD [whatever that means] to act like an official page -- which it isn't. Wonder what A&E will say about that? Links to Chip's and Sandra's sites began popping up. Again, Sandra created new accounts to make it look as if many post there, but in reality only the CCC and a few backscratchers are.

4 I'm happy to be compared to a legend like Andy Rooney. When he got old he didn't become bitter or mean and sick in the head. He did something with his life.

5 Ron uses SCIFAKE to expose fakers like many who are in the CCC. We at EYE ON THE PARANORMAL have no issues with SCIFAKE. And, Old Sparky, it wasn't until all the lies, attacks and deceptions you took part in finally got me and Ron to talk on the phone. In fact, Ron might begin posting a blog on the EYE once a week.

Pick apart all the lies and attacks that we've uncovered and you're left with nothing. Watch your appetite, Old Sparky, because next week you'll be getting another heaping plate of the truth.

UPDATE

On October 12, 2011, Ron Tebo and Babbling Babs talked on the phone. She told Ron that she is very upset with what Chip Coffey did on the show. She said she wasn't laughing at Chip's blind comments, but seeing Chip poking his face into the camera lens is what she found funny.

Personally, I don't buy it. Here's why:

1Why did she tell Ron this and not me?

2 She was contacted hours after the incident took place and she never said this at the time.

3 Watch the video and note that she's already laughing when Chip sticks his face into the lens.

4 Babbling Babs posted about the aforementioned hate site concerning me and Ron that featured a joke about me going blind and even used a phrase that was featured on the site.

If she is telling the truth she can send a post for next week in which she goes public with this information. Send it to me at freeallspirits@live.com and it will posted, as is.
