On the Effectiveness of Aluminium Foil Helmets:

[solypsist]

I'm looking at a 2+ hour layover in Chicago/Midway right now, so a little internet break to post this link:

Among a fringe community of paranoids, aluminum helmets serve as the protective measure of choice against invasive radio signals. We investigate the efficacy of three aluminum helmet designs on a sample group of four individuals. Using a $250,000 network analyser, we find that although on average all helmets attenuate invasive radio frequencies in either directions (either emanating from an outside source, or emanating from the cranium of the subject), certain frequencies are in fact greatly amplified. These amplified frequencies coincide with radio bands reserved for government use according to the Federal Communication Commission (FCC). Statistical evidence suggests the use of helmets may in fact enhance the government's invasive abilities. We speculate that the government may in fact have started the helmet craze for this reason.

As I understand, straightening out the top of metal coat hangers and sticking them in your ceiling also deflects mind control signals, so one doesn't have to sleep with the aluminum beanies.

I, of ocurse, am immune to these signals, due to the presence of large metal plate in my head (or at least, that's what I've been told, but that too could be an electronically induced delusion

Well they would be the perfect covert force. Who would suspect that those mad people, that are so fanatically afraid of being controlled by the goverment is infact controlled by the goverment through the very means that were supposed to protect them? ~:joker:

I have to agree with Lyle there that the MIT study is in fact FCC propaganda designed to spread FUD against deflector beanie technology and leave us open to mind control. Rahimi e.a. have only measured the effects of radio frequencies, whereas it is a well known fact that condensed psychotronic rays are the actual vehicle for mind control.

The study has its merits though. My family is considering changing to 'Centurions'.
