"A US citizen requested access to the document, entitled "Bioeffects of Selected Non-Lethal Weapons," under the Freedom of Information Act a little over a year ago. There is no evidence that any of the technologies mentioned in the 10-year-old report have been developed since the time it was written.

The report explained several types of non-lethal laser applications, including microwave hearing, disrupted neural control, and microwave heating. For the first type, short pulses of RF energy (2450 MHz) can generate a pressure wave in solids and liquids. When exposed to pulsed RF energy, humans experience the immediate sensation of "microwave hearing" - sounds that may include buzzing, ticking, hissing, or knocking that originate within the head.

Studies with guinea pigs and cats suggest that the mechanism responsible for the phenomenon is thermoelastic expansion. Exposure to the RF pulses doesnīt cause any permanent effects, as all effects cease almost immediately after exposure ceases. As the report explains, tuning microwave hearing could enable communicating with individuals from a distance of up to several hundred meters.

"The phenomenon is tunable in that the characteristic sounds and intensities of those sounds depend on the characteristics of the RF energy as delivered," the report explains. "Because the frequency of the sound heard is dependent on the pulse characteristics of the RF energy, it seems possible that this technology could be developed to the point where words could be transmitted to be heard like the spoken word, except that it could only be heard within a personīs head. In one experiment, communication (http://physorg.com/news122567894.html#) of the words from one to ten using īspeech modulatedī microwave energy was successfully demonstrated. Microphones next to the person experiencing the voice could not pick up these sounds. Additional development of this would open up a wide range of possibilities."

Last year I was hearing voices and one night I was sitting on a lawn during one such heavy episode just observing the voices and there were several identical black SUV's with tinted windows and people in them parked along the street facing me. Weird eh?

I wonder at what point concentration itself can be compared to laser technology...I know that I have experienced this and we even have certain metaphors in common use that hyphenate it...it seems vaguely possible that if *non-lethal lasers* can do this, at least some people's natural concentration skills might do it as well...

fascinating area...kind of oblique I guess since there's a lot I don't really grok too well...microwaves and all of that...but fascinating nonetheless.

Might...?

I thought that was a given... :yes:

('Round here, at least...)

lol...well yeah...I'm being cautious here since I don't really know the extent to which mental concentration really can be linked to laser technology...while on a personal level I really don't doubt the correlation for a moment... :cool:
