Hmm.

Someone posted a photo of a ham radio operator sitting at a Field Day rig wearing a tin foil hat (obviously, captioned, “It’s a conspiracy!”).

Which got me to thinking.  I think the conspiracy nuts have it backwards.  What if a tin foil hat actually functions as a capacitive hat to help one’s long wavelength, low frequency thoughts get out better? Perhaps it works by making one’s neurons appear electrically longer than they actually are.

Fools!  You’re playing straight into the hands of the NSA and their mind-reading equipment!  Bahahahaha!

 

ETA:  This was later pointed out.
