It seems that some people joined this list for some sort of theoretical
discussion of EMF fields and frequencies. This was not the purpose of this
list. This list is to help electrically sensitive people improve or
overcome their condition. This does not require any sort of engineering
background or knowledge about EMF frequencies and fields. Just some
practical advice from others about what has worked for them and what hasn't.

Wille's approach seems to be that the first step to a solution is having a
sound theory and scientific studies to back it up. But that's not how
things always work in science and real life. Sometimes you find something
that works, and then you go back and try and understand *why* it works.

When I first got ES, I looked for the most scientific-sounding solutions.
I moved EMF sources away from me, which helped a little. I bought a glass
grounding shield on my computer monitor, which helped a little. I bought
an LCD monitor, which helped a little. I bought some EMF shielding
materials, bought some gauss meters, etc. But even with all that, I could
still not enter my place of work, and I could still not stand being in a
grocery store longer than a few minutes.

So then I tried an EMF protection device. Of the ones I looked at, the
Q-Link pendant sounded the most scientific and had good testimonials, so I
tried that. It didn't help at all. So then I tried the Bioelectric
shield. Didn't help. Then Tachyon energy discs. I noticed something from
this, but not enough to make any practical difference. Eventually I found
the Quantum Products, which were the first of several useful things I
found. But their website didn't sound scientific at all. In fact, they
had a piece of software to helped with computer EMF, which sounded
absolutely crazy to me! I eventually concluded that there was no
correlation between how good something sounds scientifically and how well
it actually works. In fact, I was seeing almost the opposite trend -- the
crazier something sounded, the more likely it was to help!

So, even though I'm engineer, and even though several years ago I demanded
to know how things worked, in the end the only thing which really mattered
was that it works! Now I'm able to go into my workplace and go into a
grocery store, and that's all that matters to me.

I think if one looks up the history of aspirin, you will also find that
nobody knew how it worked originally, even though it was commonly
prescribed and used. People just knew that it worked. It didn't really
matter to them why/how it worked. Eventually I think someone figured out
how it worked, but at that point it was pretty irrelevant to the millions
of people who already knew that it worked.
