It wasn't until after I posted my initial response that I realized that
"Ghost Busters" _wasn't_ a typo, and that it _did_, in fact, refer to an
actual Deadlands adventure involving _the_ Ghost, not just _a_ ghost (or the
movie for which the adventure is named). Score one for knowing what you're
talking about before posting...

On a similar but completely different subject, it was recently put forth
that certain energy fields might be able to affect Hex magic. Since Hexes
are Manitou-based, might those same energy fields be able to ward off or
even contain a manitou as well? Professor Wangenstein may have some work to
do...

Well, so much for knowing what I'm talking about before posting...
