That’s a ridiculous conclusion from a ridiculous test.
I cannot tell a lie!......
Isn’t that the truth...his lips couldn’t even move.

Are there magnets in those geekoid blue tooth headsets?
Ethanol works for me.
If you are thinking of slipping a magnet behind the right ear of some lady (I did) you should first ask yourself; “is her moral compass filtering out lustful desires or homicidal desires?” ;^)
There is some empirical evidence that transcranial stimulation by a varying magnetic field can have antidepressant effects, akin to the highly controversial “electroshock” but without any of its physiological or procedural dangers. Maybe people who feel better are less likely to want to lie.
“Is there really global warming?”
“Were you born gay?”
“Will more government spending create jobs?”
“Is George Soros paying you in any way?”
“Do you think Michelle is well-dressed / hot / honest?”
lol.
I think by telling the participants that they could either tell the truth or lie, they changed it to a game rather than a moral compass, since they already said that either response was “acceptable” for the study.
I was just in a classroom not long ago where the teacher told the kids to make up a back jacket for a book about their life - but that it could be about their real life or about a fictional life. The kids who wrote about a fictional life had no reason to believe that they were lying, since they had already been given permission to make it fictional. Same thing would apply here, I think.
They're measuring the effect of magnetism on the brain, or on the ability to lie. The sample size is 16. The response is binary. The study's a joke.
He would just stand there silent.
BUT what if you think a lie is the truth?..
You know like with almost all democrats..
And not a small amount of republicans..
People believe what they want to believe...
It has nothing at all to do with logic or benefit..
All right! The reason for a future business for making Faraday Caps has been born. 
Eat your heart out tin foil.

I was hoping there would be a "Power" setting on the thing. Like they have for lasers that allow you to adjust between "delicate eye surgery" and "vaporize jeep."
>>> Strap this to Obama’s brain: <<<
Assuming IT had one, this would the answers:
>>> Where were you born? <<<
In a hole but I wasn’t privy as to where it was.
>>> Who’s your daddy? <<<
They wouldn’t tell me; however, I look like Malcolm X.
>>> Are you still smoking? <<<
All kind of things, my speeches, crack and all my records. I put them in my pipe and smoke them. (Nah, the other pipe doesn’t exist.)
>>> When’s the last time you had gay sex and who was it with? <<<
Reggie...Reggie...Reggie... Never Wookie, she has her own. I only regret that I was too young to sleep with Che. That’s what Jane Fonda told me.
>>> Are you losing weight because of cocaine usage, or do you have AIDS? <<<
A little bit of both. That is what an 0h0m0tologist informed me.
So no more use for lie detectors and truth serums..but stick 2 blocks of magnets on the perp and he’ll sing like a canary?
