	Round Table: Knights Templar
	Tuesday November 23, 2004

Authors Warren Getler, William Henry, and Glenn Kimball joined together in a round table discussion on the Knights Templar with a special emphasis on evidence for hidden Templar treasure in the United States. The Templars began as a military order whose mission was to protect Christian pilgrims traveling to the Holy Land. Getler suggested their focus eventually shifted to the nine-year task of searching for hidden treasure and religious artifacts buried beneath the Temple Mount, the ancient site of the Temple of Solomon. It is not known what they found there, but whatever treasures were unearthed would have been brought back to their headquarters in France, Getler said.

	Speaking with the Dead
	Friday January 23, 2004

Friday's show featured a special topic hotline, for people that "speak with the dead." One woman told a tale of eating a hamburger with her father in a truck stop, knowing full well that he was in spirit form. Another caller talked about how the ability to speak with the deceased ran in her family. A Canadian caller spoke about her friend, who had the ability to communicate with those who had passed over, and offered this service as a comfort to people who had lost loved ones.

It warned that there was going to be a murder in the future.
