Important Gear Questions

[Hawkeye6]

1. Is regular or heavy duty foil better for protective hats?

2. Is it better to make a foil hat with kind of a cone (pointy end up) on top, or is it better to make one that is more like a skull cap.

3. Would there be any advantages to running a ground wire or wires from the fol hat to the ground?

Otter writes "A study at MIT has found that aluminum foil headwear ("Among a fringe community of paranoids..the protective measure of choice against invasive radio signals") actually amplifies certain frequency bands allocated to the US government, as well as a mobile phone range, and is largely ineffective through the rest of the radio spectrum. But we can we trust the study, or are They controlling the researchers?"

Hmmm, you need to research this site: http://zapatopi.net/afdb/

A few things to know:

BEWARE OF COMMERCIAL AFDBS: Since you should trust no one, always construct your AFDB yourself to avoid the risk of subversion and mental enslavement. Sometimes, AFDBs will be sold on places like eBay. Do not purchase these pre-made AFDBs, even if the seller seems trustworthy. They may contain backdoors, pinholes, integrated psychotronic circuitry or other methods that actually promote mind control


You may augment your AFDB with random bits of foil, wire, small electronic parts, etc..

Canadian coins should also be considered as they are high in nickel content. Nickel, while not having the psychotronic deflecting properties of aluminum (or even tin), can act to refract psychotronic beams, thereby helping to scrambling the mind control signals as they are deflected off of the underlying aluminum surface of the AFDB. This will result in a lowered chance of retransmission of the signal.

However, you should avoid American and European coins at all costs as they contain aluminum based mind control circuitry. Canadian coins are free of this threat mainly due to the Canadian government's choice of neglecting psychotronic research in favor of research into giant robotics.

Tips:
Tinsel is made of plastic and has no anti-psychotronic attributes.
Painting your AFDB won't degrade its abilities, so you can be mentally safe AND color-coordinated too! (However, see Corrosion in the maintenance section for important note about latex paint.)
"Beer can hats", though made out of aluminum cans, are not as effective as an AFDB since they have gaps inbetween the cans. You may, however, line a beer can hat with an AFDB or even glue the cans directly on an AFDB.

The newest upgrade to the AFDB is two elongated horns that resemble antennae. They help to repel most electromagnetic psychotronic mind control carriers.

Good luck and post photos.

Uh..uh...uh...Quickly before they know I am trying to subvert their control...uh..uhh. Too Late They know!!!!
