Wearing a tin foil hat in a thunderstorm will prevent the weather bureau from tracking you.

Just because you're paranoid DOESN'T mean they aren't out to get you......

A faraday cage works better if you can build in around a large plastic bag. Get inside the bag and you will be fine!:)

I was thinking of using one of those giant latex balls from the series The Prisoner.

My bad. So... if the tinfoil is on inside out . . . you can control other people's thoughts and actions? Where's the Reynold's Wrap?

Well, I guess that explains the voices in my head afterall...

I poke them with a q-tip and they quiet right down

Another way to protect against a psychic attacker:

Saranwrap. I know, most people take a second look at this, but I mean it. Whenever I go on the road and have to give seminars or talks, I always pack my trusty Saranwrap! It is three sheets or layers, one on top of the other. I tuck it beneath my bra so that it hangs over and covers my solar plexus (the area just below where your breastbone or sternum ends to your tummy button).
If I get into a seminar where I feel instant draining, and I don't have time to do anything about it because my attention is too scattered and pulled and I can't focus like I need to, then I excuse myself and go slap on my Saranwrap and there's a happy ending. The only bad thing about this is: you'll sweat like a pig beneath it. Bummer.

I know I'm paranoid, but am I paranoid enough?

...passage through the foil amplified these waves by 20-30 decibels.

Somehow I doubt the physics of this work out. A 2^6 to 2^10 power gain by passing through an unpowered layer?
