    OT a whatchamacallit

    Took some stuff to a recycler , saw this about to be shredded. I've always helped strays. I'm assuming radio broadcast stuff and worthless. But a nice display piece. A few bucks cash which I am sure was turned in. Dated 1960.

    Cool old stuff, it lets me bring up my B & W Lie Detector given to me about 30 years ago. Actually really works, detects lies, and is lots of fun at a drinking party.

    On a positive note to better the world; I want to start a crusade which requires all people running for political office to have to take an IQ test and have the results displayed next to the candidates name on the ballot. I also want to require all politicians speaking into any mic to be hooked up to a lie detector which is hooked up to a shock collar.

    Non that they can prove. The key to detecting lies are the questions asked and the person asking them. Blunt ones like, "Do you watch porn?", "Are you having an affair with whats her name?" work best.

    I've found that a couple fifths of Jack Daniels in a comfortable atmosphere will get the truth out of just about anybody.

    Pretty cool tool from the very earliest days of FM stereo broadcasting.
