Have you ever used a Ouija board?

You know, you can make your own. Just use an upside down wine glass on a smooth surface, like a table, and arrange pieces of paper with the alphabet on them, then a yes and a no.

This conversation made me think of an interesting experiment to do with a ouija board to further prove that we move the planchette on our own--have two people who don't speak the same language use one together and see if the board can spell out anything, or even work at all. I have a feeling it wouldn't because both people are required to make them work. Ever try to use one by yourself? I've never seen it work, and apparently, it just doesn't work without at least two people. If you don't understand the question the other person is asking, then that means you aren't being prompted by the suggestion of the conversation to think of a possible response from the board, which then guides the way the board will answer. Just a hypothesis. less
