Message Subject Do you experience Experience Phenomena with Electronic Devices? Are you a SLIder?
Poster Handle zCommonAnomaly
Post Content
I used to work maintenance in a milk bottling plant. The minute i started my shift there was always electrical issues with equipment that had previously been running good. I would do my rounds and bam, the machines start acting haywire. I finish my shift and voila, everything starts running again.

Street lights and cars act up too quite a bit.

Okay, I'll admit I've had a job or few that I really disliked and I noticed on days when I'd nearly call a bomb threat to shut the place down- after a little bit of that emotion had spread.....things might go wrong(with computers/phones) - and we'd get to leave early.

There it is, emotion again.

I remember reading a story about a plumber who experienced this; he was told by his boss that he had to work some overtime when he didn't want to, leading to him becoming emotionally upset, leading to him frying the electronics in one of the tools he needed to use, leading to him being able to go home anyway because now he lacked the tools. I've never managed to turn this odd phenomenon to my advantage, but there are clearly ways!

Do you know your blood type, OP?

I'm hoping the above poster might tell how he felt about his job...His situation almost sounds like a jinxing, because being the maintenance person, it was making more stress/work for himself. :-(


It seems there are mostly disadvantages, but let's re-cap the more advantageous effects,

2 people can use their mouse pad without touching it(!)
1 can change traffic signals(!!)
2-3 can jinx their employers(!)
1 can change tv channels with sneezes(!)

I'm very interested in the link between Emotions and Electromagnetism/Electricity!



" According to the RSPK model, these amazing demonstrations of mind-over-matter – of objects flying around houses and electrical equipment going haywire – occur as a result of sexual and emotional tension on the part of the “focus,” who more often than not is a troubled teenager undergoing puberty. Are the mechanisms at work in poltergeist disturbances the same as those involved in SLI?"

"Some of the first modern psychophysiological researchers to examine the conversations between the heart and brain were John and Beatrice Lacey. During 20 years of research throughout the 1960s and ’70s, they observed that the heart communicates with the brain in ways that significantly affect how we perceive and react to the world.

A generation before the Laceys began their research, Walter Cannon had shown that changes in emotions are accompanied by predictable changes in heart rate, blood pressure, respiration and digestion. In Cannon’s view, when we are "aroused," the mobilizing part of the nervous system (sympathetic) energizes us for fight or flight, and in more quiescent moments, the calming part of the nervous system (parasympathetic) cools us down. In this view, it was assumed that the autonomic nervous system and all of the physiological responses moved in concert with the brain’s response to a given stimulus. Presumably, our inner systems tooled up together when we were aroused and simmered down together when we were at rest, and the brain was in control of the entire process.


The Laceys noticed that this simple model only partially matched actual physiological behavior. As their research evolved, they found that the heart seemed to have its own peculiar logic that frequently diverged from the direction of the autonomic nervous system. The heart appeared to be sending meaningful messages to the brain that it not only understood, but obeyed. Even more intriguing was that it looked as though these messages could affect a person’s behavior. Shortly after this, neurophysiologists discovered a neural pathway and mechanism whereby input from the heart to the brain could "inhibit" or "facilitate" the brain’s electrical activity. Then in 1974, the French researchers Gahery and Vigier, working with cats, stimulated the vagus nerve (which carries many of the signals from the heart to the brain) and found that the brain’s electrical response was reduced to about half its normal rate. In summary, evidence suggested that the heart and nervous system were not simply following the brain’s directions, as Cannon had thought".

A+, I think. :-)
