Smell

 About the blog

   Apparently I had COVID a few days ago for about 45 minutes.

   How did I self diagnose that?  It's simple.

   I lost my sense of smell on the way to lunch, it stayed lost during the meal, and didn't return until I'd been dropped off afterwards.

   If you know the possible symptoms from COVID then it makes perfect sense.  Just follow the logic:

1. New loss of smell is a symptom attributed to COVID.
2. For about 45 minutes I noticed things like food had lost their usual scents and aromas.
3. I must have had COVID for 45 minutes.

   Yes, that logic is more than a little backwards.

   Yes, there are other possible causes for that and other COVID "symptoms" like these:

• New loss of smell
• New loss of taste
• "Fuzzy brain" - a generic term for losing one's train of thought, sudden difficulty recalling memories, or loss of focus.
• Respiratory problems like pneumonia.
• Sudden paranoia or fear with no discernable cause.

   That's an abbreviated list, but the point is to show where COVID's symptoms overlap with direct exposure to... something else.  There's a small problem trying to show that though.  There's 2 potential "something else(s)" for consideration:

1. Ultrasound - also known as:
• High frequency sound
2. Electrical current - also known as:
• Oscillating current
• Alternating current
• or just current

   How did ultrasound become a suspect in this?  I'd like to say it's also simple. 

   Two other unusual things noticed during the same lunch lead to ultrasound being detected and recorded using an ultrasonic receiver.  If this seems complicated and difficult to follow...  we both have the same opinion about it.

   Why would anyone have an ultrasonic receiver with them and decide to check for ultrasound all because they lost their sense of smell?  Normally no one would.  End of story.  There's an Occam's razor kind of situation in this somewhere and ultrasound isn't the simple or reasonable choice.

   The reason this wasn't normal and the story didn't end is because the restaurant had something in common with a few residences in St. Louis:

• There was a sensation of heat from some light fixtures which matched that from light fixtures at 2 St. Louis residences.
• It was unusual because they were ceiling lights, only 60 watts, and 6 or 7 feet away.
• Looking directly at the bulbs in the fixtures caused involuntary wincing.
• It was unusual because the time was around noon, it was sunny, and our seating was outside.

   Here's some examples of what the ultrasonic receiver picked up.

   So does the internet have any information on ultrasound that shows an overlap with COVID symptoms?  I'm not sure how to describe this but the internet seems hesitant on choosing a side (good or bad) in regards to ultrasound.

   Here's some examples from the first page of Google search results:

• Peter Russell, "Ultrasound Everywhere: Any Cause for Concern?" WebMD, January 20, 2016
• Summary: People have complained of nausea, dizziness, migraine, headaches, tinnitus and fatigue for 40 years and maybe it should be looked into.  Amazingly helpful.

• Dominic Smith and agency, "Ultrasound exposure could be making people ill, study finds" The Guardian, Tue 19 Jan 2016 19.01 EST
• Summary: People have complained of nausea, dizziness, migraine, fatigue and tinnitus in public places around England.  Researchers have confirmed ultrasound with 20 KHz or greater frequencies present in some of those places.  Super helpful.

• Fletcher MD, Lloyd Jones S, White PR, Dolder CN, Leighton TG, Lineton B. "Effects of very high-frequency sound and ultrasound on humans. Part I: Adverse symptoms after exposure to audible very-high frequency sound". J Acoust Soc Am. 2018 Oct;144(4):2511. doi: 10.1121/1.5063819. PMID: 30404512.
• Summary: We sorta tried to test how ultrasound affects people but we didn't find anything.  Extremely helpful.

• Hariharan Shankar, Paul S. Pagel, David S. Warner; "Potential Adverse Ultrasound-related Biological Effects: A Critical Review". Anesthesiology 2011; 115:1109–1124 doi: https://doi.org/10.1097/ALN.0b013e31822fd1f1
• Summary: Ultrasound of certain frequencies and intensities can be really, really bad.
• Cellular effects are bad:
• Inactivation of enzymes
• Free radical production
• Neural effects are bad:
• Temperature increases during exposure (which makes it sound similar to the microwave auditory effect).
• Suppression of neural transmission (but it's somehow reversible)
• Ocular effects are bad:
• Can damage ocular structures but depends on duration of exposure intensity
• Can cause cataracts, corneal clouding, lens opacities (less light able to pass through)

   I was starting to think ultrasound was imaginary until I clicked on the last article above.

   Now I'm wondering why any amount can be considered safe but more importantly: why is it present in restaurants and homes being emitted from light fixtures?

   It may have something to do with electrical current ("leakage").

Appearances

About the blog

   I just heard what sounded like a male voice saying the 2 sentences below (there's some paraphrasing):

• 'If he doesn't say it to us then it doesn't count.  We can't use things like cigarette flicks or walking across the grass or anything like that.'

   That has me wondering exactly what I'm being asked where cigarette flicks can be considered answers.  Even more so due to a car accident caused when something happened which nearly made me lose consciousness.  When I regained focus I was saying a phrase out loud:

• "If you're having trouble or need help, when you become aware you're flicking your cigarette flick it twice."

   So along the same lines, I'd also like to know how any implied questions are being asked.   I'm also curious if those asking the implied questions happen to know who the individuals approximately pictured below are:

   I've written about them in previous posts (Faces, Magga, Pushing) when repeat appearances were noted.

   There's also a few other unexplained things but those are with my vehicle:

• A frequency counter used in the vehicle - or within a few hundred feet - typically shows a signal with a frequency of about 2600 MHz.
• The vehicle battery has been getting drained over night which seems to affect the frequency of that signal:
• Right before starting the vehicle in the morning a frequency counter can show a signal with a frequency as low as 2545 MHz.
• After driving the vehicle a few blocks the signal frequency climbs up to between 2570 and 2580 MHz.
• It only takes a few minutes of driving for the signal frequency to peak at around 2600 MHz again.
• An SDR (software defined radio) used to pin down the source of the signal found another signal with a frequency of 25.43 GHz:
• This occurred WHEN THE BATTERY WAS DISCONNECTED which seems backwards to me.
• An RF meter detects signals from multiple points from the body of the vehicle:
• This occurs EVEN WHEN THE BATTERY IS DISCONNECTED and it never stops which also seems backwards.
• The exact location where signals are detected slowly shift around - they aren't fixed points.
• Every single AM and FM station has static on it while the RF meter is detecting radio signals from the body of the vehicle.
• Static is loud enough to drown out the programming in some cases.

   I've documented each of the unexplained things detailed above in video or photographs.

   Someone has answers to each of these questions.

   I'm guessing those answers are also somewhere in my vehicle.

David

About the blog

   I don't know who "David" is, but he has rights.  I know this because he stated it very clearly to someone in a conversation I could hear from a bedroom in my apartment.  As far as I know neither David nor who he was talking to live in my building.

   So I shouldn't be able to hear them at all.

   What right did "David" say he had?  Let me quote him:

• "I have the right to investigate that."

   That statement was made shortly after someone else could be heard saying (and I'm quoting this person too):

• "Let it go David."

   From those 2 statements I'm inferring "David" investigates things and is possibly tenacious and or stubborn.  Actually, it only takes the first statement to infer that and doesn't matter if the person's in question is David or not.

   Those inferences may or not be correct but the statements I quoted are exactly what I shouldn't have been able to hear.  Just in case you're unfamiliar with how communication works... I shouldn't be able to quote something I wasn't present to hear and have no logical way to have heard.

   Which brings me to the sometimes head-splitting levels of ultrasound in my apartment.

   There's a misconception that ultrasound can't normally be heard by people.  But whoever is pushing that belief forgot to mention any cheap cell phone can record sound then the recording be used to identify ultrasound if present.

   That seems like a really important thing to forget to tell anyone.

   An ultrasonic receiver can still confirm the presence of ultrasound and I have one for that.  The audio it produces sounds like a lawn mower from point-blank range and doesn't preserve much in the way of detail.  The point is it works well and can locate an ultrasound source from a hundred feet away.

   So where's the ultrasound being emitted from?

   That's a reasonable question to ask and there's a very un-Occam's razer answer to it.

   Society and individuals confronted with someone describing conversations and voices heard they could hear without anyone else around have a few causes to consider:

1. The person hearing those things has schizophrenia or other auditory condition.
2. The person is hearing these things because:
• Ultrasound is being radiated from the electrical wiring throughout the residence.
• Wherever wiring runs through a wall and radiates ultrasound it turns the wall into a speaker.
• The ultrasound has a modulation that results in audible speech from each wall.

   Which of those 2 causes would you believe is most likely?

   And which of those 2 causes is the actual one?

   That would be the one Occam's razer would laugh at... #2.

   That leads me to the opinion that every person who is unfortunate enough to start hearing things needs to be given an ultrasonic receiver.  It sounds silly at first, get's somewhat sillier, then makes perfect sense because we wouldn't still be having this kind of harassment if that was done.  So it would mean an end to the problem (real or imaginary) of what's called Gang Stalking.

   But let's not forget about David.

   David probably didn't mean to be speaking so loud that close to a "microphone".

   That assumption may be backwards though due to another statement - or suggestion - made prior to this.  That "statement" was:

• 'You're not the only one we're doing this too.'

    Maybe I'll meet David face to face at some point in the future.  Should that happen I'll probably ask if he was present to hear a conversation where someone said "put down the microphone and help me aim this over there.".

   He might be able to confirm whether that's another example of something I wasn't present to hear and have no logical way to have heard.

   Or it may have only been something suggested.

Current

 About the blog

   Someone I'm acquainted with recently sent this tip to a few news stations.  It's included here with permission:

Vehicles with inadequate grounding and high frequency current

There are auto repair businesses in the St. Louis area who are not repairing vehicles correctly and then billing with invoices that make it difficult to understand what was done.  In some instances, a vehicle is returned to the customer with an issue that requires unnecessary repairs down the road.  One issue I've encountered involves a vehicle that no longer is adequately grounded and experiences excess high frequency current in the electrical system.  It can lead to other parts failing sooner than they would otherwise but there's 2 little known effects people should be aware of:

1. Multiple radio signals can be emitted from different points on the vehicle. High frequency current is normally used to power radio antennas which is why this happens to the vehicle but it can cause interference with other wireless technologies.
2. If two vehicles with this issue pass each other on the highway the combined effect from both can affect either driver's muscles.  Movement needed just to keep a vehicle centered in the lane requires more effort away from the direction of the other vehicle otherwise it will drift with even a little curve in the road.

It's similar to why someone being electrocuted by high voltage shouldn't be touched directly when freeing them.  If that happens the rescuer's muscles can clench up on contact too and both die.

My vehicle is one that had this issue but you don't need to take my word on that.

It's very simple to check any vehicle for the problem as long as it has a working AM radio.

What gives it away is static interferences on each AM station and what should be quiet gaps between stations:

• If the static is loud enough to interfere with listening no matter the channel, it's a strong indication.
• If any channels also have a whining sound audible that rises in pitch when the vehicle accelerates, that's another indication.
• If the static jumps in volume when the vehicle is driven under a metal bridge, or passes a semi with a metal trailer, or when going under high voltage power lines, then it definitely has the issue.

Pushing

About the blog 

   Does anyone recognize a gentleman with the approximate appearance below?  I'm missing an audio recorder which was taken and not returned - not lost or missing or disappeared - the same weekend the gentleman made a point of getting my attention at Argosy Casino in Kansas City while holding a small... something... as though pushing a button on it.

   I have no evidence he personally took the audio recorder (which is close to the size of what he was holding).  But I do believe he has information pertaining to it's disappearance.  Whether his intent was to suggest it's theft (assuming it hadn't happened yet) or to inform it had been stolen (but not yet noticed), it demonstrated knowledge of events and unlikely to be just a coincidence.  Someone not involved should react to news of thievery instead of pre-announcing or announcing it.

   The gentleman's behavior seems backwards.

   I'd like to ask the gentleman a few questions assuming he can be located:

1. Does he work for a casino in Kansas City or St. Louis?
2. Does he travel often between those cities?
3. Does he know the circumstances pertaining to the theft of the audio recorder?
4. Did he have any influence over those circumstances or know anyone who did?
5. Has he ever used the phrase "We're gonna have to investigate that." or suggested someone should hear that statement or know someone who has?
6. How often does he find suggestion to be effective in accomplishing something?
7. Is he familiar with technologies that use high frequency current or ultrasound for surveillance?
8. Has he ever used such technologies in his profession?

   There have been a few other items taken - stolen - when I've been traveling.

   Unfortunately, that can happen.

   Hopefully, it's unrelated to this gentleman who stepped out of the crowd for attention.

Sound

.About the blog

   How many people have been in public, said something out loud without thinking, then looked around hoping it wasn't noticed?

   How many have been by themselves, said something out loud, then had the feeling someone else was listening?

   Hopefully no one ever does.  It's a creepy feeling and one that tends to be laughed at when shared.  For those who persist trying to explain or share details, laughter from others can turn into ridicule or taunts.

   But what if there are those - with the technology and certainty they won't be found out - who are violating people's privacy for their own ends?

   A few days ago I tried to find out if the feeling I have about my own car was based in something real.  I've had several items stolen from my vehicle on more than one occasion.  But there was never an indication it was broken into, those items just vanished.  Recently I noticed the battery was getting drained overnight so starting looking for a cause.

   I bought an SDR (software defined radio) and tried it out near the vehicle. To make sure I wasn't picking up anything else I did a few things first:

• Parked the vehicle away from apartments and homes
• Disconnected the battery so the vehicle had no power
• Put my cellphone in airplane mode so it wouldn't transmit

   It took some time to get the SDR working, but when it started receiving I found only 1 signal that stood out across the spectrum.  That was at 25.43 GHz which isn't used by any cellphone or walkie talkie.  By the time I thought to snap a screenshot or take a picture the signal stopped.  So no help there on having proof.

   But this evening I tried something different.  I'd noticed that sound or movement in the vehicle seemed to be affecting the amount of tension in my arms and legs.  That made absolutely so sense to me but I kept noticing a correlation.

   So I parked the vehicle a short distance from any apartments or homes again, disconnected the battery, and put my cellphone in airplane mode.  I turned on a cheap RF meter I had and checked for any signals.  There were none.

   Next I set the RF meter on the dash and hit the armrest between the front seats with my hand  to make some noise.  What happened next?  Well the laws of physics - as I understand them - don't support sound being converted to radio frequencies by an armrest.

   But that seems to be what happened...

   Which means that there's something in the vehicle that sends out RF when enough sound is made.

   Either that or the laws of physics work differently in a Ford vehicle... which I doubt.

   Hopefully the Ford dealership I take the vehicle to tomorrow can explain what's going on.

   It's more than just creepy.

Casinos

About the blog

[UPDATE: Explained how highway hypnosis and slot machine hypnosis are related and how they occur without getting too detailed. Original Post on 7-6-2021 10:06 PM] 

   As it turns out, the technology I've been describing for a year now on the blog is a gift from casinos.

   It's original purpose was for making casinos safer and more secure for everyone.  But highway hypnosis gave way to slot machine hypnosis for a very good reason.  Both arise from having a display illuminated by a light source, vibrational energy that causes visual flicker, and some AM radio stations thrown in which aren't consciously noticed.  It was a problem when driving a vehicle and the gods of chance aligned against the driver, but an opportunity for gambling in every possible way.

   The technology was capable of much more than expected when combined with knowledge of the mind and human nature.  I'll let that sink in for a minute before explaining what it means...  As a side note, the technology is based on the following:

• Oscillating current (also known as RF current)
• Oscillating magnetic fields
• Oscillating electric fields
• Oscillating waves - both electromagnetic and sound

   Those 4 effects explain all the things I've been trying to make sense of here in St. Louis with the blog.  Aside from the behavior of individuals I've encountered... those 4 effects explain all of them.

   But back to the casinos...

   After further development the technology became capable of deterring would be robbers and thieves from ever attempting to steal while at a casino.  That's reminiscent of a scene from Star Wars where a Jedi tells someone in a casino to "go home and reconsider your life".  The person repeats the phrase out loud, turns, then walks out of the establishment with a look of confusion on his face.

   The movie is nearly pure science fiction.

   This technology is very, very real.

    With a little more development it became capable of identifying those who planned to cheat at a casino before they could take a seat at a gaming table.  By tapping into the unconscious part of the mind it was possible to cause a player to identify themselves as planning to cheat.  They form of self-identification would be chosen by the player - this made it more likely for the player to do so without being consciously aware of it.  But was still discernable by those who knew what to look for.

   It could be made to happen as soon as the player fell under the influence of the system being used.  The more time the player was within the affected area the more under it's influence they'd become.

   Once they left the casino they'd return to normal (the amount of time needed depending on the person and amount of time they were there) and never have been aware of what happened.

   Does that sound a little scary to you?

   It probably should and with good reason.

   That a player would identify themselves as planning to cheat instead of casino security trying to identify cheaters is backwards.  And it's the underlying reason that so many things that don't seem quite right in St. Louis are backwards too.

   I don't have enough information to say whether or not any casinos currently have this technology in place.  But I can state for a fact that a version of it has left the casinos to be used without enough oversight.

  That this has happened at all is unacceptable.

   For it to be used the way it has in St. Louis is inexcusable.
