I never humour her. I listen to her, and from time to time I try to
educate her. She knows how sceptical I am.

What surprises me about people like that lady is that they have
absolutely no concept of scientific method yet they are really confident
in their assertions about scientific matters. She's a member of the
Green Party by the way. Let that slip the last time we spoke.


Oh ..just as it was all getting interesting.

Tell her the green party is actually run by little green women.

Ineptocracy

(in-ep-toc’-ra-cy) – a system of government where the least capable to
lead are elected by the least capable of producing, and where the
members of society least likely to sustain themselves or succeed, are
rewarded with goods and services paid for by the confiscated wealth of a
diminishing number of producers.

I think most of us are sceptical of utter nonsense.

I have occasional conversations with a woman who has moved house three
times because of radio waves entering her brain at each location and
making her ill. She has metallic mesh over all the windows. Her latest
house had a redundant VHF FM aerial with no downlead which she spotted and
decided was the reason she felt ill whenever she went near the TV set. The
FM aerial was removed and the symptoms she felt were greatly reduced. She
has bought a variety of RF meters (mostly from the USA) which give
'confusing' results. Last year her dog developed a small cancerous lump
which was, she felt sure, caused by the cellphone tower that she could see
from the bedroom window.

Today I made a discovery that I think will help her and other sufferers.
In Range I found a roll of aluminium cooking foil. It was 75m long by
450mm wide, and was the thick stuff that is quite strong. The price was
£6.79, which is 9p per metre. It was labelled 'catering quality'. At home
I discovered that this product is exactly the same as a product branded
'Bacofoil, which is sold in 6.5m rolls ('5m plus 1.5m 'free'') at £2.49.
That's 38p per metre. When I say 'exactly the same' the two products are
made in the same factory and have the same reference number on the little
tag that keeps the roll from unrolling. The thickness appears to be
exactly the same. The only difference is, the Bacofoil branded roll has a
faint criss-cross pattern embossed on it. How this makes it a better
product I don't know.

The woman who rings me from time to time will be delighted with this
news, since she uses a massive amount of cooking foil, not least to wrap
around her head and line her bra. The dog's basket apparently also looks
very swish with its silver paper covering.

If this is a lead in to one of your rigger's tales, in which
you explain how you discovered that, please, no pictures!

Especially not the high resolution ones you're famed for :)

I take it you're using a generous definition of "information".

Thert's money to be made out of them. Look here
http://davidhboyle.com/ Trouble is he actually believes all the crap.


I sincerely hope the sluggish response is due to DDNS and not an
overloaded commercially hosted web server. I'm finding it slow going
trying to ascertain what his views are, other than what the link names
hint at.

Well, I've gotten to this page, 3 links on;

http://exhibitionoftheuniverse.com/

It seems clear to me that it's simply a money making scam preying on
the feeble minded. Similar to Russ Andrews' sales technique except, in
Russ's case where he's merely targetting the folk with way more money
than sense (and therefore excusable), this is a totally despicable
scam operation, targetting the folk who are obviously in need of "Care
in the community".

The trouble is, this David Boyle is far from alone in this activity.
The only unusual feature being that it's a UK based operation. Most of
his fellow sharks operate stateside, targetting an even bigger pool of
hapless victims of a failed education system.
