Exclamation Re: How to shield your electronics. v.s. Voodoo

"If you worried about your body, especially your brain since it's an electro-magnetic device, well shield it, lol. I mean you can put antennas on the roof of your house, 1 antenna wire 1/4 inche by 5 feet long, covering a sphere of 20 feet, and protect the entire household. The important is conductivity (metal) and good grounding (deep in earth)."

This will not work and does absolutely nothing for you. The idea of putting antennas on the roof top must have come from the idea of lightning rods. EMP is not like lightning. You cannot 'draw' EMP away from things in the same way as you can with lightning.

Common EMP has little or No effect on your brain.

Also, if you ground something, the ground wiring Must be very short distance from the shielded 'item' to the actual Earth grounding point or the so-called ground wire will act as an antenna instead of as a grounded circuit. Using housewiring grounds in wall sockets is not a good idea and may Not be effective.

Copper foil is a better option if you wish to create a good faraday shield. Aluminum - is ok for shielding the Magnetic component of the Electro-Magnetic pulses and will suffice overall if done properly.

Antennas and any wiring attached to a device should be disconnected for best protection.

On second thought, maybe it is time to go buy some 'wabbit ears' (an old-stlye of TV antenna) and put them on my new hat: http://www.rogue.co.za/html/more_headwear.html
