*sigh* Yes, you are absolutely right, the small signals that are broadcast through the skin cannot be broadcast through the air and then through the skin, even if you have the full resources of a Nation-State or a rural Radio Shack™.
LOL. smooth.
Ya know, it's gotten to the point now, that people really have to be purposefully and willfully blind if they are paying attention at all if they are willing to give even the smallest benefit of the doubt to the feral government. I use the word 'feral' advisedly. I've truly come to believe that it is the most accurate and descriptive word we have for what the u.s. government has become. It certainly doe not even vaguely resemble a government 'of, by and for the people' any more, and I really don't think it actually has been for about 40 or so years, though they've been getting more and more open and brazen in their disdain for the people they supposedly work for.
Think about the change in the vibe here on this site over the past decade. Used to be, there would be serious catcalls and 'tinfoil hat' commentary on threads like this. You'll note that those comments are not few and far between. It could be the tribal mentality of thinking the worst of the opposition. i.e., republicans are willing to believe the absolute worst of democrats, but are unwilling to consider that their guys might just be every bit as dirty as the opposition.
I suspect, though, that people are slowly discovering to their horror what is being implemented against them, in their own name, in much the same way I was horrified at watching the u.s. government murder a hundred people in my name on national TV in Waco, Texas back when. They were able to get away with that op because of the cognitive dissonance the event generated amongst the vast majority of folks. I think the same op might get a different reaction today. I'm sure we'll find out soon enough.
