Got that partly right, its mental.. One more time - if it has "any" 
effect on the physical world, it is by definition *part* of the physical 
world, and therefor should be detectable and verifiable, and, despite 
shows like "Ghost Hunters", where a bunch of morons babble about camera 
glitches and spook themselves over every "pop" or "creek", no one has 
ever "detected" or "verified" a ghost. And no, EM meters don't count. 
Its like using a fracking light meter, then wandering through a forest 
going "oooh", every time you walk through a patch of ground where the 
canopy doesn't completely cover you. Everything from ore deposits, to 
hidden wiring, and even just random atmospheric effects can "screw up" a 
meter. That is why *sane* people use them in "clean rooms", with a 
Faraday cage around them, when they want to "detect" leaks, not in 
someone's house. You want me to believe ghosts are real, find me a clean 
room lab, built in one of these "haunted" locations, where "ghosts" 
wander through the lab and show IR images, and/or EM fields. lol

Seriously, the IR is just as bad, "Wow! There isn't a person over there, 
so like.. its impossible that something else, including reflected heat 
from some place else, could be doing it!"

Science it about removing random shit that **can** effect your 
instruments *then* testing. Ghost hunting is about walking into some 
place with equipment that is a) not designed to prevent such 
interference, b) is imprecise as hell, and where c) you have done 
**nothing** to limit what could interfere with your tests, then 
concluding that everything you see, hear or record is "proof" of what 
you went there to find in the first place. I.e., about as far from 
"science" as you can get, without resorting to Tarot cards or Ouija boards.

But, the answer is still the same. You don't normally see people with 
their guts hanging out, so when your brain conjures something to 
interpret indistinct lights, with a vague shape, it matches it to a 
"dressed" person, not one with bits of the insides hanging out.
