I’ve just done Perchy’s annual appraisal and awarded him an “exceeds expectations”. There is no financial reward.
No it’s actual-factual-real stuff. I saw a documentary on it once and they had some woman on there who lived miles from anywhere in a completely tech free house because everything electronic made her incredibly ill very quickly, reducing her to a vomiting shivering wreck. I was amazed she coped with the full film crew in honesty.
A chap from National Geographic got in a lot of trouble with one of these people- he did the obvious concealed electronics trick and inevitably, she had no reaction to devices she didn’t know about. But then after the interview they sent her the proofs and told her about the hidden phone, and she instantly became “ill” and sued. I think we should seal her in a lead coffin and bury her, for her own good, tbh.
But Murray is spot on, it’s pretty likely that this lady has a genuine problem, it’s just not the one she thinks- it’d be good to help her with that.
