I copied the letter word for word from the segment via still frame,and put it into 'gender genie' to get an idea of whether or not the author was male or female.Although I've always felt the daughter was sincere,much to my surprise,considering the very descriptive words used, the author comes out as male.
here's the letter and the link,you can try it yourself.I did non-fiction: Dear Tress, As you celebrate your 80th birthday, I want you to know I am there with you in spirit.If I were really there,I would shower you with sapphires as blue as the ocean to match your eyes,and diamonds as bright as the sun to match your beautiful face. I will be at your side as you blow out the candles on your cake,and I want you to know I love you more as each day brings us closer together.Stay a while,I'll wait forever. Happy Birthday sweetheart, Frank Gender Genie: http://bookblog.net/gender/analysis.php Original: dear tress, as you celebrate your 80th birthday, i want you to know i am there with you in spirit.if i were really there,i would shower you with sapphires as blue as the ocean to match your eyes,and diamonds as bright as the sun to match your beautiful face. i will be at your side as you blow out the candles on your cake,and i want you to know i love you more as each day brings us closer together.stay a while,i'll wait forever. happy birthday sweetheart, frank Keywords: dear tress [as] you celebrate [your] 80th birthday i want you [to] know i am there [with] you in spiritif i were really therei would shower you [with] sapphires [as] blue [as] [the] ocean [to] match [your] eyesand diamonds [as] bright [as] [the] sun [to] match [your] beautiful face i will [be] [at] [your] side [as] you blow out [the] candles on [your] cakeand i want you [to] know i love you [more] [as] each day brings us closer togetherstay [a] whilei will wait forever happy birthday sweetheart frank Words: 89 Female Score: 206 Male Score: 236 The Gender Genie thinks the author of this passage is: male!

I meant to add,by no means is it definitive or 100% conclusive,I just thought it was interesting.

Very interesting.
This is one mystery I hope is never solved. But really, either way, it is a testament to how love survives death, whether in the letter from beyond or the faith of "Tress" and her family. |

it's titled 'ghost writer' on the forbidden site,which I think is also the title of the segment.
