COULD SOMEONE PLEASE EXPLAIN THE TINFOIL HATS?
I've kept quiet for weeks about this, but where did this arise?

Does it have something to do with receiving radio waves (with messages) if you wear a tin foil hat?

I'm clueless and curious... and in the radio business, too -- so it would be good if I understood it.

Thanks.

On the path -- to peace --

Radio Lady

8. Question
Does one wear a tin foil hat to keep the frequency out (as in the movie Signs, where the kids wear tin foil hats to keep from getting bombarded) or is it used to pick up the signals?

19. The Kooks Museum
Edited on Tue Jul-12-05 05:08 PM by MN ChimpH8R
in another excellent site. It's at http://home.pacifier.com/~dkossy/kooksmus.html

For a real hoot check out the Francis E. Dec exhibit. Dec's rants are so completely and frantically insane that they must be checked out. What's scary is how much they resemble the loonier Fweeper rants. :tinfoilhat:

For the brave: http://home.pacifier.com/~dkossy/dec.html

6. I much prefer...
A professional-grade, stainless steel colendar, with twin attached grounding tails made from welding service cable.

Keeps them mind control rays at bay. ;-)

11. More precisely, they are "Aluminum Foil Deflector Beanies" - link
Edited on Tue Jul-12-05 04:52 PM by Jersey Devil
and they are fully described at this link:

http://zapatopi.net/afdb.html



"An Aluminum Foil Deflector Beanie (AFDB) is a type of headwear that can shield your brain from most electromagnetic psychotronic mind control carriers. AFDBs are inexpensive (even free if you don't mind scrounging for thrown-out aluminium foil) and can be constructed by anyone with at least the dexterity of a chimp (maybe bonobo). This cheap and unobtrusive form of mind control protection offers real security to the masses. Not only do they protect against incoming signals, but they also block most forms of brain scanning and mind reading, keeping the secrets in your head truly secret. AFDBs are safe and operate automatically. All you do is make it and wear it and you're good to go! Plus, AFDBs are stylish and comfortable.

What are you waiting for? Make one today!"
