Hi-
i've just finished reading Charles Tart's new book - 'The End of Materialism'. In it he mentions the mediumship of D D Home, quote (p 152) : " I take most of the reports of D.D Home seriously. For example, accordians, in rooms illuminated by candles or lanterns, were often seen and heard to play recognisable tunes, even though they weren't being touched by Home or anyone else... ". Unlike mental mediumship, which can be challenged on the grounds of cold-reading, rater bias etc. it seems that the only alternative explanation for physical mediumship to a paranormal one is fraud, so it can provide impressive objective evidence for the afterlife, if fraud can be ruled out.
I know that there are not many physical mediums working today ( David Thompson is one I know of ) but I was wondering if any posters had any direct experience of this phenomenon.
