Hi, Hermine. Lynn Butler here,
professional lurker. I do recall aluminum headwear used in the 1970's to protect
the less-than-stable from "extraterrestrial broadcast" interference, but hey,
waves are waves, yes?

Ted,
Far be it for me to discredit
or vouch for any of this! But I did find it interesting due to another
interest dear to my heart. I'm one of less than a thousand people in
the world who can document having logged over 5000 scuba dives. My
time in the water as a professional underwater photographer included time in
a deep submersible. Never got to go down to the deep water in the
mid-Atlantic rift or the really deep water off Galapagos but I recently saw
a National Geographic special which featured deep ocean dives to both areas
of the ocean where live volcanoes are constantly spewing on the ocean
floor. The National Geographic team found large incredible marine life
actually using the noxious gasses produced by these volcanoes as a food
source. And to top that, many were living in water with a temp
approaching 800 degrees! Some were photographed crawling into vents so
hot it was actually burning them alive and they were happily gathering and
eating the stuff!
I 'member that! i was blown
away! and the SIZE of those critters! it reminded me of Robert Heinlein
stories of life on planets with frozen methane-ammonia
atmospheres! Or maybe they were Isaac Asimov stories. ("Fantasy and
Science Fiction" magazine, circa the mid fifties)
I just saw an
advertisement on telly (or perhaps was hallucinating) about underwear with
silver wires in it to keep my head from exploding due to radiation from my cel
phone. and I wondered, do I really need this stuff, if I wear silver
bracelets? has anyone else heard of silver in the undies to ward off a
radioactive head?
I believe virtually NOTHING, by the way.
