Which was in fact my point ... This is just a goof, really, but 
it's a stfnal idea that I've played with many time and never 
come up with a good storyline for ... I've often had the idea 
of, well, if you can have multiple-sheaf futures, why not multiple-
sheaf pasts? And then what if Alden, the Reasonably Friendly Ghost, 
actually has lived multiple versions of his life and died at 
several different points along the timeline ... ? It would 
certainly clear up (by making irrelevant) many of the 
inconsistencies in the storyline(s). So he died of a stroke, and
he died playing with his chemistry set, and he died in the 
coldhouse prank ... Just a goof, as I said.

But I'm dead serious about the coldhouse == the barn.
