Tin Foil Hats

My friend and neighbor and I were talking about tin foil hat wearers, he's a psychologist, and he told me that when one of his patients migrates to wearing said apparel, they show a marked improvement at first, over time though, the hats seem to lose their effectiveness. He credited it to a diminishing placebo effect. Myself, being a former Aviation Electrician, offered a different explanation. Metallic objects moving through space build up a charge of static electricity. Sooner or later that charge will find a way to ground be it by overcoming the resistance of an existing conduit or by jumping the gap, like what happens in a spark plug. When that action occurs, the brain's electrochemical properties are affected. This principle holds whether the reason for the hat is due to directed beams (black ops or aliens) or simply existence in our electromagnetically charged atmosphere.

After many conversations along these lines, we came up with a device that actually works to eliminating the diminishing returns of the Tin Foil Hat. It works by using the same principles that airplanes use by having trailing wires on their wings to bleed off this charge. Electrical technicians also utilize grounding wires to overcome this problem. Easy enough to fabricate, we ask only that you respect our copyright and not manufacture them in commercial quantities. We call it "1up." If you are unable to build one yourself, we will be happy to make one for you for a small donation to cover labor and material.

Bye Bye Democracy

Once again Paul Craig Roberts not only hits the nail on the head as to where our country is heading if we don't wake up the sheeple and do a 180* fishtail, but drives it home with clear, simple language that not only connects the dots, he does so in an irrefutable manner. In this age of empty talking heads and propaganda puppet pundits, it is easy to see why he cannot be found in the arena of the Military-Industrial-Corporate-Congressional-Media. Even Joe Six-Pack would understand and respond to his message. His commentary deserves a full read, so no quotes here.

On a note more complicated, yet still vital, Columbia, the media giant not the Country, is on the verge of eliminating our electronic privacy. They have a court order (pending appeal) that is requiring an ISP to begin keeping records of all data passing through RAM to be used in the future as evidence of past transgressions. Everything you type, say, see, and hear with your computer passes through its RAM which makes this a prosecutors wet dream, but in reality points out the ignorance that inundates our society. Sorry, but that's as simple as I can explain it. The upshoot goes as follows:
For example, if you have a VOIP-based phone system (where conversations appear momentarily in RAM in your data center), are you responsible for recording every phone call for potential disclosure in litigation?
The article ends simply:
If you're worried about government-issued wiretap orders, maybe it's time to start worrying about Hollywood-issued ones too.

An other Alternet article concludes this rant. Statistical analysis (.pdf) of talk radio proves the lie of a "Liberal" bias. Not that any Neo-Con-Repug bothers with facts.
