I would love to hear about that one exception.
As I've said before, I've experienced too many things to doubt the existence of the supernatural. None of them have been anything like seeing an actual ghost, they've been much more subtle. I've posted about one such experience when I was alone at Seaview in 1999 that I didn't realize the true significance of until 2011, and after that I've felt that if I never step foot inside Seaview again, it'll be more than fine with me. And one of the more unique experiences that I don't think I've ever gone into was the time I was working in my home office on my PC and out of nowhere I began to smell an odor that was quite familiar to me because it seemed as if a professor/mentor at college never had his suits dry cleaned and they always had a scent of old sweat - not overpowering - but enough to notice. At the time of the experience I hadn't thought about him in years, and even though he was instrumental in getting me my first computer programming teaching job and I considered him a friend even though we'd lost touch, I thought it was quite odd to say the least that out of nowhere his distinct scent of uncleaned suit should strike me and linger for more than a minute or two. Well, a couple hours or so after that experience a mutual friend of the professor's and mine who had remained close to him phoned to inform me that he had passed away that day. I was like cue the Twilight Zone music...
