[Antennas] RF Exposure.. Hoooey....or otherwise

[Chris BONDE]

When I was at university some of the gears (engineers) decided to try the 
"death ray".  It is a concetrated audio, or sub audio frequency.  The poor 
subject was hospitalized.  All they did was take a very good low freq audio 
horn and aimed it at his dorm window.  His desk was nearby.

Now for some of you who read the bible, what about Josua at Jerico with 
them rams' horns?

So I tend to believe some of this audio stuff.   (Again donot cry wolf but 
be aware.)
