The reason why you do not want to use aluminum for shielding is because it reflects inward and not just outward.  If you live in a mobile home with aluminum siding that is okay as long as you have shielding on the inside of the home as well.  I hear myself being contradicted by someone who provides no reasoning or evidence but is only contradicting people.  See:  http://berkeley.intel-research.net/arahimi/helmet/   This is a study done that shows that wearing aluminum foil hats actually amplifies certain frequencies that are reserved for use by the government.  Wearing aluminum on your head makes the frequencies reflect inward into the mind.
