Waves here

About the blog 

   Are you familiar with floods and waves?  If you live near either large river in the St. Louis area you might be familiar with flooding.

   Water likes to go downhill until that option no longer exists.  At that point the water level rises and flooding can start.  When flooding breaches a levee it can send a wave of water into communities nearby but there's typically warning given the order of events. 

   That's a little different than living by an ocean where flooding and waves occur backwards in order.    That type of flooding is more about incoming waves that inundate as they arrive - the flood follows the wave.

   Going back to St. Louis we have a new brand of flooding.

   When RF current is intentionally used to flood an area's cable or telecommunications infrastructure it begins to cause slowly moving waves.  Those waves are of people leaving that area.

   Here are 3 reasons given when someone tried asking what was going on:

  • Bad electrical engineering or poor construction.
  • Electricity sometimes "finds it's way back in"
    •  This explanation was given by 2 Ameren engineers sent to determine why several buildings and the ground at an apartment complex seemed to have magically become magnetic.
    • Does this electricity use a GPS like Garmin or have iPhone maps to "find it's way back in"?
  • "Radio waves finding their way in" to the cable installation
    • This assessment (which might be partly correct) was given by a Charter Spectrum technician when asked to determine if RF current was present.
    • RF current was determined to be present.

   As it turns out those reasons aren't valid.

   The RF current being present was no accident and I suspect that many wrong answers aren't an accident either.  The intent is to push out those who aren't welcome... think of them leaving quickly in waves.

   What's the difference between an area before RF current floods it and afterwards?

   Before a flood you may notice people active both day and night.  The most activity occurs during the day and tapers off into the early morning hours until back to usual again in the morning.  During a flood there may be more segmentation noticeable between day and night activity.  After a flood there appears to be much less activity at night with the majority occurring during the day.

   It's like everyone living in the area landed a steady 8 to 5 job with bedtime at 10 PM.

   That perception would be backwards.

   But in general it's much quieter after a flood at any hour of the day or night. 

   There's a certain set of sounds we generally call tinnitus that appear when RF current floods an area.  For someone who's already been diagnosed with tinnitus it can range from distracting to disabling.  The strangest part is how most people either don't notice it or don't hear it at all.  Those seem to disappear once a flood ends.

   Why should you care about any of this?

   Well, unwelcome people are also known as "those kind of people" which might be a reference to anyone for any reason.

   How do you define "those kind of people"?

   The definition for that is recreated every time someone points their finger at someone else and invokes the phrase.     It can literally include anyone for any reason and you've probably been "one of those" before in your life without realizing it.

   This time you may not be "one of those" getting pushed out of the way.

   Next time it happens the situation may be very different.

   There's value in looking at each person as worth the same as every other.  Doing that can actually safeguard one's own interests in the future when another finger is pointed and the phrase invoked.

   Only "those kind of people" are the one's affected now.

   But that's the case each and every time.
