I especially like the amplification zones.
Anyone with a smidgen of electronic background knows that aluminum foil
can't amplify anything without first attaching a potato battery.

..jeez...

For a fun read, try the following study done at MIT on tinfoil hats.

<http://people.csail.mit.edu/rahimi/helmet/>

Abstract
Among a fringe community of paranoids, aluminum helmets serve as the
protective measure of choice against invasive radio signals. We
investigate the efficacy of three aluminum helmet designs on a sample
group of four individuals. Using a $250,000 network analyser, we find
that although on average all helmets attenuate invasive radio
frequencies in either directions (either emanating from an outside
source, or emanating from the cranium of the subject), certain
frequencies are in fact greatly amplified. These amplified frequencies
coincide with radio bands reserved for government use according to the
Federal Communication Commission (FCC). Statistical evidence suggests
the use of helmets may in fact enhance the government's invasive
abilities. We speculate that the government may in fact have started the
helmet craze for this reason.
