1275657 2012-05-16 11:44:00 I had a guy phone me years ago who said that he was getting radio signals from his teeth and that the SIS were also listening in to his conversations.

He hung up when I asked him if the radio station took requests :)

1275658 2012-05-16 11:55:00 The interesting thing is, she is not actually unintelligent, or a "nutjob". She just has a totally different world-view from most of the rest of us. A world view that includes very little scientific understanding. She once asked me if there was more EMR coming from a TV transmission tower in the evening when most people were watching TV.

1275660 2012-05-16 12:32:00 There have been reports of people picking up AM radio through their braces or fillings.I don't think it would have been that, as I believe she has had all her amalgam fillings replaced. Tony (4941)
1275661 2012-05-16 20:55:00 because she says she can feel the electro-magnetic fields. She also says she can detect the fields around her burglar alarm sensors.

I'd be curious to know the make and model of her alarm sensors too, this one strikes me as odd...

Also, perhaps I should take this person for a drive in my car and see if they detect the Microwave Sensor :D

It amazes me that there can still be people like this in today's world. It's not hard to look up a few scientific facts if you missed it all at school. But people persist in wanting to believe stuff. Ghosts, gods, "energies", crystals, magnets, alien abductions, herbal "cures", animal part "cures", and so on.

They are nutjobs.

1275663 2012-05-16 21:10:00 Have a wireless router in there, disable the wireless and ask if she can feel it. Or secretly plant one in there and don't tell her it's there and see if she is "irritated"

To be honest though, some people "are" EM sensitive (break out in all sorts of rashes/hives) but this sounds a little weird. If she has any sort of mobile device she would feel the TX/RX broadcast from the client, a router wouldn't be much different. She should also feel any other wireless devices, mobile networks and TV transmissions. Usually EM sensitive folk try to live without ANY contact with radio signals out of the "natural" specturm

Walking? Running? All very well for you young sprouts, I'm going to keep on lurching and staggering, a technique that has served me well for many years. ;)

Are you suggesting that some radio signals are unnatural or that there exists a previously unknown unnatural spectrum?

1275666 2012-05-16 21:33:00 If she says she feels them, then she feels them!

My head feels different after I have been using the mobile for a call (the longer the call duration, the weirder my head feels - a kind of hardness around the side of my head where the phone had been). As an electrical engineer (speciality: transmission lines and fields), I have absolutely no doubt some people can sense EM to the extent that they are aware of the fields.
