Discover your Truth

The 1851 death of Darwin's daughter, Annie, was the final step in pushing an already doubting Darwin away from the idea of a beneficent God.


4 years, 2 months, 13 days, 8 hours, 7 minutes, 33 seconds until the Mayan end of Age.

"When you get old, the only things you remember are the things you dared to do and the things you didn't dare to do. All the daily stuff, the things you had to do, the things someone paid you to do, blur into the nothingness of 'unimportant to your soul', and when you look back on your life you only see the dreams you made happen and the dreams you were afraid to pursue." --P.J. Gaenir's grandfather

Crampton Gap Battle

There were so many dead and decomposing bodies that surviving soldiers could not bury them all.

Gaithersburg Snouffer School Road

BRIEF: Old Plantation House on MNCPPC Property

SUMMARY: Old Plantation house, unsure of exact background or history. On MNCPPC property. Currently the head office of the company I work for. While working late there I heard noises come from the basement. I thought it was mice or something but I went down to investigate. I saw an amorphous, translucent, dark blob slowly moving across the floor away from me. I have also heard "breathing" sounds coming from a sealed chimney. Co-workers have had similar experiences and have heard noises and steps coming from the attic where old files and boxes are stored. No one wants to be the last to leave or to work late. We are moving into a new office, so this house will be vacant. It is on MNCPPC property in the 8000 block of Snouffer School Road. You may be considered a trespasser if you go onto the site so check in with the MNCPPC before going onto the site. Very bucolic location just inside Gaithersburg sprawl. Others claim to have seen shapes and odd lights on the grounds around the old plantation though I have not experienced this.

Former Statehouse Building

Honolulu, Honolulu County, Hawaii

BRIEF: The ghost of Queen Lili'uokalani haunts Hawaii's State Capitol Building

SUMMARY: Built during the reign of King Kamehameha V (completed in 1882) it replaced a former one-story bulding constructed of coral block. It served as the official residence of the Hawaiian monarch until it was overthrown in 1893. At that time the building became the statehouse of the new Provisional Government of Hawaii.
