A few things to stimulate your thought processes...
Water (unless very pure) is a reasonable conductor of electricity
Damp in a house is undesirable
Lots of people can make money from treating it
Surveyors are worried about being sued for missing it
When surveyors do their survey, they will probably bring with them a
'damp meter'
This is acutally a simple conductivity measurer- stick the 2 metal
prongs into the wall, and the little meter and beeper will give you an
indication of the conductivity of the wall.
Surveyors will then correlate this quantity with the 'dampness' of the
wall
A _very_ damp wall would be _very_ conductive
Silver foil is also _very_ conductive
Now, can you think why the surveyor might have thought the wall was
damp, but only in the area where you have found the foil?
>What is this stuff? Why was it used.
ISTR it was to reflect radiant heat, to try to improve energy
efficiency.
>3. Somthing completely different!
In the absence of any other signs of damp, I'd go for 3- it was put
there years ago to 'save energy', and most of it removed for
redecorating, but the surveyor happened on a scrap of it with his damp
meter prongs...
I could be wrong, but it's a convincing theory!

> A _very_ damp wall would be _very_ conductive
> Silver foil is also _very_ conductive
From this explanation one would expect to see a damp area mentioned in the
surveyors report
Was this the case?

Pass - it's been there years. Layers and layers were on top of it, and there
were 2 strips each side of an exterior corner (not behind a radiator). What
made things stranger was that there is a slightly musty smell on the
wallpaper that came off - and whether this is due a small amount of damp, or
just old wallpaper, I don't know. I've sniffed and sniffed, and can't quite
work out what's smelly!

Unreel, just think you could have turned down your palace because of damp!
Any comeback on the surveyor for trusting his tools too much?
> >>Any suggestions most welcome!
Referring to your original post, I think the answer is no. 2. I don't know
what this stuff is (or was) called, but I've certainly seen it before.
It's something decorators used to use to cover up damp patches in order to
paper over them. It could delay having to deal with the underlying cause
for many years, as you may just have discovered...

Can you advise where I can get some from?
One corner of my brothers house is damp and keeps soiling the wall paper
he is about to sell it and if this stuff works then it is worth putting up
(this
is not to hide it the Surveyor should (may not :-)) find it!
>Any comeback on the surveyor for trusting his tools too much?
I await his response with interest. Will let you know!

It's just *possible* that it was used as a radio aerial. I have
certainly seen designs for arrays of foil beneath wallpaper used for VHF
reception, so maybe this is a discreet AM aerial.
The idea behind the VHF arrays is that you make up for the attenuation
caused by the wall by using a very large area.
Well you did ask for something different...

A previous occupant, who was a little eccentric, used to sit in that
corner and meditate. The foil was an attempt to screen out the alien
mind-jamming rays.
Now *that's* silly.
But I'm sure that something very close to that has happened many times.
The world is big, and has more than a few eccentrics. Some years later,
the new house owner starts wondering...

Very clever but what we want to know is whether it will keep out
microwaves. Agents of the Judeo-Masonic Faction have been beaming
microwaves at us for years to try to drive us mad ever since we
destroyed the implant they put in our head by heating it up in the
warming oven. We have had to wear aluminum foil turbans ever since but
we have recently started to feel a little queer from time to time.
Either they have changed their microwave beams or the foil turban may
have slipped. We would like to paper the house with aluminum foil to
keep out the microwaves even if our turban falls off.

Silly or not, I have seen designs for *dish* aerials -- to receive
satellite transmissions -- that used flat pieces of aluminium foil.
Apparently, they worked somewhat after the manner of a fresnel lens.

Well, at least cats won't pee on your head. They hate the sound of it
hitting the foil.
Furthermore, you were supposed to destroy the implant by sticking your
head in a microwave oven. All a warming oven will do is burn your hair
off. Try again, you might get it this time.

That feeling isn't from the head implant. You successfully destroyed
it when you heated it up to 100 degrees C. It is from the microscopic
radiioactive bits we imbedded in the seat on your loo.
Have you noticed that things aren't working as they once did? Even
viagra hasn't helped? Yep, the particles are working. You can detect
them if you will put a geiger counter close to the seat. Even then you
will only hear what sounds like background static. It isn't, it is the
particles.
Now, has anyone told you about the flouride in your water system? It
is part of the plan also. Interacts with the particles to make you
constipated so you will spend even more time on the "throne".

My dear sir, beaming microwaves at you will have no effect whatsoever on
your mental state. However, the effect will be to gently warm your brain,
leading to feelings of inner well-being and increased synaptic activity.
A small amount of steam may be visible exiting from the ears, but this is
a mild side effect.
> We have had to wear aluminum foil turbans ever since but
I imagine the lightshow was quite entertaining. If the sparks aren't
enough, I believe that sticking christmas tree lights on with blobs of
blu-tack will enhance the effect, as well as adding a delightful splash
of colour.

Have you considered clingfilm? It's transparent to microwaves (which may
cause some minor difficulties), but you should keep fresh for up to 8
weeks in it.

Don't bother wrapping the outside ofthe house because we have implanted
emitting devices in most home appliances. Stick with the aluminum
turban thingy. But you might want to know that we are working on a new
"space saving" electric can opener with frequeny emitters that can
penetrate aluminum.
You may have to switch to titanium or duct tape, but because of my

You must be some sort of nutter. We respected your contributions
to the anti-Masonic cause, but if you post nonsense like this
you will discredit our movement.
Masons don't use microwave mind control any more so your
turban idea is a waste of time. Try to stick to the facts
about Masonary if you want to be taken seriously. You also
claim to eshew pewfery but then you admit to feeling little
queers. Why have you slipped from the path of righteousness?
Last time we posted ourself, we revealed the truth about the
1973 plot to poison the water supply in New York and about
the plot to get the Scottish to finance a nuclear bomb for
Hitler in 1945. Then we explained about the origins of
Masonary and about the corruption they bring. Then we
revealed how they are obsessed with the symbolism of the
rampant erection and masturbation.
Next time we will tell how they forced us myself into the
Craft in the first place when we joined Exxon Petroleum
as a Chief Engineer in California in 1955 and how we were
treated as their employee thereafter and how they got rid
of us on some false pretext. It will all be revealed when
we post next time. Until then, keep the faith and...
FACE THE FACTS!

We think that eruction must be an agent provocateur working for the
Judeo-Masonic Faction or the P2 masons in the UK. He is a fake and now he
says he is going to post lies about us working for Exxon and being forced to
join the Masons. As you know we were working for Burmah Oil when the Masons
forced us to join so they could be sure of our silence about the way they
were making babies into upper-cylinder lubricant. When we dared to speak out
we were threatened by the Masonic enforcers who told us that our vows were
for life and that if we spoke out again our intestines would be strung across
the top of our house as it says in the ritual. At least eruction has been
trying to get our goat but he will not succeed in that either as we keep her
locked up inside.

Not when you are wearing one of our new and improved Masonic
InfraViolet AudioSonic sensor arrays in your Thorax. Makes them clear
as day to the unaided eye.
No, no old boy! The transmitters in the building next door emit long
range microwaves. They are not visable to the human eye. Wbat you are
seeing are the buried short range verticle transmitters designed to
react with the implant you received the last time you had a thorough
examination at the clinic. You didn't know the doctor was a Mason, did
you? Have you noticed any problems lately?
Couple that with the radioactive particles placed in the seat of your
water closet............................
