Appendix AA Quick Primer on Brain WaivesBrain waves are generated individual brain cells called neurons, which communicatewith each other by electrical changes that manifest in the form <strong>of</strong> brain waves as shownin an EEG (electroencephalogram).Brain waves are measured in cycles per second (Hertz; Hz is the short form). We alsotalk about the "frequency" <strong>of</strong> brain wave activity.The lower the number <strong>of</strong> Hz, the slower the brain activity or the slower thefrequency <strong>of</strong> the activity.Researchers in the 1930's and 40's identified several different types <strong>of</strong> brain waves.Traditionally, these fall into 4 types:- Delta waves (below 4 hz) occur during sleep- Theta waves (4-7 hz) are associated with sleep, deep relaxation (like hypnoticrelaxation), and visualization- Alpha waves (8-13 hz) occur when we are relaxed and calm- Beta waves (13-38 hz) occur when we are actively thinking, problem-solving, etc.28
Appendix BTestimony <strong>of</strong> an EM Attack on a 9/11 activistBy J.M, former executive director <strong>of</strong> 911truth.orgDate <strong>of</strong> incident: February to June 2005 / Testimony written late 2005“Usually, I could discern the general start time and stop time <strong>of</strong> an attack. Initially, thetypical attack started with a pain at the base <strong>of</strong> head, basically the brain stem. Then itwould shoot up into the head and envelope the whole head.“Then, basically, I became unable to think or even communicate. I had a case <strong>of</strong>complete lethargy. I felt that I just needed to lay down. I was too tired to even hold upmy upper body from my rib cage, or even to stand up straight.“Once I was able to clear the negative energy with the help <strong>of</strong> a psychic healer, Irealized that there was a three-day cycle <strong>of</strong> attacks; later it changed to a two-day cyclewhile I was working with him. When the attacks were happening, they nearly alwaysseemed to start around 11 or 11:30 am and then, at about 3 pm, they would let up. Iwould suddenly realize that I can pay attention, my demeanor is happier—none <strong>of</strong> theutter despair. I was able breathe freely again.“At one point there was a five-day pause, and it seems as if the healer hadsomehow stopped them from hitting me. But then a really bad one <strong>of</strong> an entirely newtype hit me, after which it then went to a two-day cycle once again. Then at one point Iwent to a ‘shutting down’ and where there are no particular events—at least I could notdiscern them. I can tell you that there were a lot <strong>of</strong> times when I was working along andjust went into what I call a ‘deep freeze’—I just shut down. I would find myself bentforward, mouth open, in kind <strong>of</strong> a non-thinking stupor.“But one attack was different from the others: I definitely felt like it was a heartattack. I had heart palpitations, pounding and racing pulse, and I had difficulty breathing,as if my throat was constricting—that was the day I called the healer and said: ‘I think Iam dying’ That was a definite event. He soon called back. He said that we should waituntil the evening when the attack was over, because if he cleared me while the eventwas still happening it would still continue. Then, like the other attacks, it stopped rightabout 3:15. The energy just changed and it was over, but the symptoms were still thereand I just had to wait for the healer to call me that evening. During the attack, I was soafraid, though, with my throat closing and all the rest <strong>of</strong> it, I almost thought I should goto the hospital. You know, I have never had anxiety attacks or panic attacks and the like.I started checking in: Am I anxious, am I feeling stressed about anything? No, I wasn’t,not aside from the sense <strong>of</strong> this mysterious, extremely frightening thing that washappening to me.”29
