...
I don't know how to answer to that..
Either;
BWA HAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Or;
The poor bastard.
But Hypersensitivity caused by over 40 dental x-rays.please get real!
The streangh of a dental x-ray is in proportion to a new born baby. If that was the case then every peron having Nuclear medicene or CT scans should be convulsing in their armchairs about now!
(All though the justification for over 40 dental x-rays is questionable)

 

[Tartarga]

Holy crap, this guy is the best troll to ever live. But seriously, I hope the guy wins because... well it would just be funny.

 

[Nubbinsmustdie]

as i said in my commented to the original post. You better watch out if someone use's a blue ray player near him his balls may drop off >.>

 

[JEBWrench]

Damn, today I've been reading all kinds of awesomely hilarious news. Well done, Escapist, for bringing joy to middleofnowheresville.

 

[Benjeezy]

I say we all band together and bombard him with harmful electronic signals from various electronic devices. We'll have a sit-in (i.e. camp) outside his house, and pwn him with our beastly technology.

 

[TheSeventhLoneWolf]

I'm probably the only one who didn't find this amusing at all.

I don't know who to feel sorry for.

 

[008Zulu_v1legacy]

If he wore an Aluminium hat, it would block out all extraneous signals.

If he were so desperate to get away from the signals, he would get some uninhabitated piece of desert in the middle of nowhere.

I agree, if he doesn't die then we know its all a scam.... and if he does, the problem is solved anyways, so its win-win!

But seriously... WTF is wrong with this guy, he should see a psychologist or something, he must have some serious issues.

 

[ahiddenfigure]

Good luck to that guy to actually prove it. If someone asked me to disable my wireless, I'd just change my SSID and claim I turned of that particluar network.

Oh, and @008Zulu, I'm with you on that one, he should take a leaf out of that radioactive guy from Heroes' book.

 

[WolfThomas]

A CT contains 400 times a normal chest x-ray, I'm pretty sure they'd be many more cases of this if it was true.

But in all seriousness this man does need treatment psychologically for his hypochondria.

 

[Aerodyamic]

Well, I know that I wreck watch batteries, so it may be possible that an individuals' own (very small) electromagnetic field could interact with the fields produced around them, but I think this guy is a New Age wackjob.

 

[MagnetoHydroDynamics]

I have never heard of such a thing as electromagnetic oversensitivity or whatever, and beleive me I have heard a lot of strange things. Also, Wikipedia writes that it is a "claim."

 

[DeleteThisPlease]

What a dumbass.

He's got psychological issues and bugs up the arse (which, as we no, isn't a plesent place for bugs to be).

Dude needs an asylum, not a court case.

 

[Unidding]

If he were so desperate to get away from the signals, he would get some uninhabitated piece of desert in the middle of nowhere.

Actually he should just line his house with a faraday cage and it would solve his problem. none of the radiation he is worried about would be able to get through.

 

[Sixties Spidey]

We should microwave his fucking head.

 

[Artina89]

I feel sorry for the woman, especially because it sounds like she is backed into a corner.
I would love the guy to come over to where I live. In my flat alone, we would probably end up killing him. "He is sleeping in his car and living with friends" How does he know that his friends neighbours don't have wireless? Whats he going to do, give out a questionaire to see if people have wi-fi and tell them to shut it off? "I just want my home" I bet the woman in the lawsuit wants her home too, funnily enough.

EDIT: I have just read the wiki article and I thought this line was solid gold:

Many have suggested that he turn his home into a large Faraday cage rather than blaming others for his condition.

I don't know why, but that has made me laugh so hard. That sentence has made my day.

 

[_Serendipity_]

This could be solved easily with a blind test.

Beam a load of radiowaves at the fellow's house without telling him and see if he complains. Then switch them off, wait a week and just tell him you're doing it, and watch as he squirms thanks to the non-existent radiation.

However, that will never work because if you were prepared to listen to reason you wouldn't be making these claims in the first place. Which is sort of the issue.

Just on a tangent issue though; we call him crazy because he believes in something despite the weight of scientific proof falling heavily against him. If he was espousing the non-existence of evolution, however, we'd be treating him much more seriously despite being in almost exactly the same circumstance.

It's something to consider...

Trolling is all well and good... when it stays on the internet. Once you start actually sueing people, you're just being an asshole.
