(Supposedly) Creating Ghosts

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/science/science-news/11214511/Ghosts-created-by-scientists-in-disturbing-lab-experiment.html
This experiment may account for some phenomena.  But the Swiss, as usual, are liars when it comes to insisting that the folks who see such things are all suffering from various "malfunctions".  That's complete bullshit, and the anecdotal evidence is overwhelmingly against it.  And the process here doesn't in any way explain why different people see examples of the same phenomena in the same place at wildly different times and under different circumstances.
