I've witnessed some interesting phenomena happening when I first started channeling, back in 1980.

We had an old, but large TV (the kind with lots of tubes) sitting in the living room, which was where we began the process - me lying on the couch and my hubby sitting in his lazy-boy chair.  Before I actually ever got into trance, we noticed that sometimes the TV (which was turned off during practice time) would start to light up, as if it were about to come on, and then fade out again.  Occasionally a little white spot would appear in the middle of the otherwise darkened screen. At other times, there was the occasional pop and spark at the back of the set, especially as it got closer to the time where I actually began to channel.

Our biggest surprise, though, came one night shortly after I actually began to give voice.  Suddenly the screen lit up completely and there was a loud sizzle and then sharp pop off the back of the TV, then everything went black.  The individual speaking through me laughed merrily and said “That'll teach them to stand in the middle of that contraption - bet that smarted a bit!” The TV worked for a few days past this episode, but not for long.

We moved our sessions into the den, away from all electrical appliances, except for the tape recorder, after that.

As to the red ball episode, Bryan, have you any younger teenagers in the house or as nearby neighbours?  Who may have been sleeping at the time?  It has become somewhat theorized that at least some poltargeist-type activity can be attributed to the astral-wanderings of youth as they sleep - most are not aware of their abilities to move objects - they're dreaming.  Sometimes if they are disturbed (emotionally), they can actually be quite destructive in unconsciously utilizing the uncontrolled sexual energies of puberty.  That's one (barely) plausible explanation, IMHO.

Cheers!
