content: Hi, I'm no electronics expert but I could really use some help from one.I’ve been struggling with writing this email for a long time, mostly because I'm afraid of coming off like a nut. But the situation in unbearable, and I really could use some help. I apologize for the length of this email, but I thought it was necessary to get all the facts down.In short: I'm being harassed by my downstairs neighbor. I believe some of that harassment has been through electronic means. This includes physical harassment, but the nature is so bizarre, I don’t know how he’s doing it, let alone how to obtain proof.BackgroundI moved into my apartment in April 2021. It is garden apartment complex arranged around a quad. Each building has only 2 apartments, 1 downstairs and 1 upstairs. The day I moved in, I could hear the guy downstairs banging on the wall as we were moving in. This went on while the movers were bringing my stuff upstairs and even when they were outside getting stuff from the truck, and I was sitting perfectly still cutting the tape on some boxes. Didn’t think much of it at the time I just thought maybe the guy downstairs was also moving in (he’s actually been here for some years).After my stuff was all moved in, I went downstairs to introduce myself, was very friendly and said that if he never needed anything when I was on my way to the store to let me know. My neighbor - I’ll call him Larry - was a man in his 60s. He responded by telling me the lady who lived upstirs before me had never knocked on his door. I promised that I was just saying hello but would not be regularly knocking on his door. I left on friendly terms and said goodbye.Soon after that I began to be woken up repeatedly between 2-4am in the morning. I was exhausted and couldn’t figure out why. One night when I woke, I was still between sleep and waking and I heard what sounded like hands drumming on a table. This was around 4:30am on a Sunday morning. I woke up and listened. Sure enough, the drumming sound was repeated several times along with random slams and bangs.I waited until 8:30am, then went and knocked on Larry’s door. I told him what I heard and asked him what was going on. He flat out denied everything. I said that I knew I snored sometimes, and I hoped I hadn’t bothered him, adding that I kept a white noise machine by my bed to block out any noise I might make. He said he hadn’t heard me, and then referring to the drumming and other noises, he giggled and said “maybe it was me”. Which erased any doubts I had in my mind up to then.The next time this happened I again went to knock on his door. But he refused to open it, despite the fact that I could hear him moving around in his apartment.Other things he has done include slamming stuff when I am trying to work from home, or when I go into the bathroom, or try to wash my dishes at the sink.And as weird as that sounds, it gets weirder. Many times, I come home, climb the stairs, open my apartment door, and immediately smell bug spray. Like someone sprayed a whole can of it. I have neither sprayed nor seen a bug since I moved in. When I'm in the shower, it sometimes feels like the floor is shaking under my feet. Same thing happens sometimes when I'm doing dishes at the sink, sitting and watching YouTube, or just walking from room to room. I’ve also felt weird electric shocks (much sharper and more painful that when you touch a doorknob) when I'm standing at the sink or cooking by the stove (wooden floor under both) or sometimes just sitting or lying in bed.I’ve tried again to knock on his door and talk to him, but he wouldn’t open it. I’ve reported some of this stuff to the rental office who have been very kind. They went to speak to Larry, but he denied everything and said that if I smelled something it might be his automatic air freshener (it was not air freshener I smelled). Management suggested I slip a note under Larry’s door, asking him if we could talk about it. I did but got no response.After that Larry continued what he was doing, but also upped the ante. I used to sit at a desk when I worked from home and I noticed that the floor under my chair would get very hot, even though I was sitting about a foot away from an air conditioner on full blast. Also, at times I would feel about an intense concentrated spot of heat, sometimes on my leg or my shoulder, or between my shoulder blades. It felt like when someone holds a magnifying glass over a patch of grass. The heat was enough to be painful. I would try to move my seat, and after a while the heat sources would move, too. Also, sometimes the floor would shake under my feet, and I would hear random bangs and slams.What I need help withThe weirdest and most troubling is yet to come. I used to sit at a desk to work from home. Because of the constant harassment above. I took to working from my bed with my laptop by my side. My bed and box spring are on the floor. Soon after I started to work this way, I started feeling heat coming up from beneath my mattress. Let me mention here that I am long past the change, and I do not sleep hot. i have also woken up feeling dizzy and sick with the pillow I'm laying on being very hot. I have an object thermometer and at times the heat in the spot I'm lying in has registered anywhere from 92-95 degrees. I have been woken by sensations of heat that were physically painful coming up from beneath my head and shoulders, and any icepacks I use melt very quickly. Moving around brings a few moments relief, and then the heat moves too. It feels like the heat from a heater (but I don’t hear any heater fan).And even that’s not the worst. In addition, sometimes it feels like something is moving underneath me and traveling the length of my back. It is a very weird and unpleasant sensation. I also sometimes experience something like a flicking sensation – I’ve felt this at my side, on my legs, and sometimes at the top of my head. Sometimes I even hear a noise like someone flicking something. This alternates with the type of electric shock I mentioned earlier, or sometimes with something that feels like a sharp stabbing pain, usually under my back or shoulders, but sometimes under my arms or legs. I’ve tried to lessen these effects by sleeping on a wooden board. And that’s the weirdest part. This had some effect but after a while it would feel like either the board was pushed up into my back or that it was being pulled down, which would cause my lower back to hurt.Look - I know all this sounds nuts. It probably would to me too if someone told it to me. But I'm not imagining it. I know the guy is sneaky and underhanded. My other neighbors in the complex (all the others I’ve met are very nice) have also told me that Larry never goes out except for very late at night to buy beer and that when he come s back, he always parks all crazy. So, it also seems like he has a lot of time on his hands and a drinking problem. I don’t know what his beef with me is, maybe he just doesn’t want anyone living above him. In any case I'm sick of being harassed. I would move but my rent is the cheapest I could find in the area, and I can barely afford that. It’s been a living hell, and nearly impossible to work from home or work on any personal goals.Just to cover all bases, I have also been to my doctor to rule out any medical issues that could mimic types of things like feeling the heat, vibrations, and back pain. According to my doctor I have no current health issues that would cause any symptoms like these.I think some of the things Larry is doing must have some electronic basis. As far as the floor shaking thing, I found one gadget that can do that here:https://wonderfulengineering.com/man-gets-back-noisy-upstairs-neighbors-building-shaker-bought-online/I'm sure the electric shocks might be some kind of joy buzzer or something. The most distressing stuff is what happens when I'm just trying to relax (or work from home) in bed.By now you may have guessed that the harassment has constant. Larry will occasionally take a break for about 10-15 minutes, but it’s never longer than that and then he’s pulling something. He’s been running through his bag of tricks as I lie here in bed writing this. At night, I usually fall into an exhausted sleep while he’s still doing stuff and I'm usually wakened by him doing stuff. I have tried everything I could think of to mitigate his harassment and to peacefully get him to stop. Nothing has worked.Again, I know this sounds nuts. I have never had a hallucination and I don’t think this is the work of ghosts, aliens, magic or anything supernatural. This is the work of a nasty, troubled man. .I'm sick of his nonsense and I want to go to the cops. But I know without proof it’s just going to sound nuts.Please, I really need some help from experts on this stuff. Can you suggest how he might be doing these things? If I could at least tell the cops what to look for that might be some form of proof. At least enough to get him investigated.Thank you for listening and any advice you might have.Blakeneydp

content: I know of nothing Larry could do to make your pillow hot. If he had the know-how to beam something like 2 to 3 GHz at you (microwave oven rf) he might be able to make you feel hot, but it would take some engineering. Over and above that - how does he know where you are in the rooms?So I'd have to say at this point after reading that I cannot help you - perhaps someone else here can.

content: To rule out the possibility the neighbour is actually an evil engineer, beaming microwaves at you, you could get a microwave radiation leakage tester. Amazon has several to choose from and one of the $30 ones would do well enough.https://www.amazon.com/microwave-tester/s?k=microwave+testerHowever it is far more likely you are being poisoned by mold or fungus contamination. Many molds and fungi can cause strange neurological effects, including inexplicable physical sensations. Therefore you should seek urgent medical advice, as anything capable of causing such symptoms is highly dangerous.

content: Not to get too far into politics, recent years have made me very skeptical of any claim that includes the word "harassment" coming from an American, but I'm digressingTaking this story at face value, my thirst instict would be that OP is imagining things and may be in need of a different kind of help. BTW, I recall a similar thread in the past, which probably ended up locked and perhaps the OP banned. I don't remember where it was, so not sure if it is likely to be the same guy again.If there is any truth to what you wrote (there isn't), you would need an on-site expert to confirm things and file a police report.Other possibility is that this could be some novel spam attempt.

content: There is one solution to this stated scenario……. Move.A problem neighbour can be a nightmare that has long term effects on mental health. Short of finding a way to get the problem neighbour to move out, the only option is to find a new home and move on with life. Society contains many people with mental health challenges and some can be very difficult to live near. A neighbour in our road is a nightmare when he does not take his medication ! If you think your health is being effected, find a new place to live, simple.In order to eliminate the possibility that your own body is causing these ‘effects’ you might want to check into a motel for a few days to see if the symptoms disappear. If not, seek medical help.Fraser

content: Is there any chance that your apartment was vacant for a while, he's gotten used to not having a tenant in your apartment, and he's trying to get you to leave? I had a neighbor like that once, it turned out that he went out at night begging, when he would go to club crowds, hand them a card claiming he was deaf and try to intimidate clubbers into giving him donations. Go-away money, it really was. He was a scary looking man, the largest and strongest looking man I can remember seeing in my life.. And generally I like black people, it wasnt that at all, it was his size, and his very strong body smell. Which is indescribable.. It turns out he cultivated a strange nocurnal aspect of his life, and slept in the daytime. It all came together when I was at Jamie Zawinski's DNA Loungehttps://www.dnalounge.com/one night and left by a side back door and saw him in all his glorydoing his side gig.. but he didnt see me..There was a fairly long line of club-goers and he was, maybe twice as tall as them, it was quite striking..He had a small card.. let me see if I can find a photo of it. I have seen them before..On subways and busses..It has the American Sign Language on it. It asks people to buy the card. He is most definitely not hearing-impaired in any way. In other words he was scamming at night, sleeping in the day.This guy, "Ted" was huge, maybe 7 feet tall and 350 lbs..a champion shot-putter, very big and strong..He clearly worked out a lot. he was very muscular and he had a strong and highly unusual (musky) smell. He worked as 'manager' of the building and previous tenants of the building had warned me about him.. but not what he did during the evenings.. Basically he want out begging at clubs at night and slept during the day. He hated any sound. And would complain, loudly by banging on the ceiling or coming up the fire escape and banging on our windows, if that didn't work. Yes, he climbed up the outside of the building to bang on our outside windows..This was a guy who really wanted his own house, but doesn't want to pay for one..(they cost millions of dollars around there, like In Germany.. its very expensive in SF, CA. ) Still- He shouldn't have been living in a shared building.Quote from: Ian.M on May 08, 2022, 04:18:14 amThis is true, watch out for mold on latex paint..See >>Panaccione, D.G. and Coyle, C.M. (2005) Abundant Respirable Ergot Alkaloids from the Common Airborne Fungus Aspergillus fumigatus. Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 71, 3106-3111.http://dx.doi.org/10.1128/AEM.71.6.3106-3111.2005I am very familiar with toxic black mold (stachybotrys) and aspergillius and their effects.. which can be nasty.. Molds can cause a lot of health problems, is true.. but.. This doesn't sound like that. I would look for another explanation. What does he do for his money, does he have a job?

content: I've heard dozens of those stories over the years from people in real life. There are always similarities in them: Neighbour, Poison, Electronic Warfare of some kind, Computers, WLAN. And most of the people experiencing this "harrassment" are at the end of their tether. Most are desperate to find a solution but in my mind lack the mental capacity to find the cause of the things they're complaining about.When I was younger I've always thought these people are just mental. I've changed my mind, given that the symptoms are often very similar there must be some form of external influence. The best I've heard so far is some kind of poisoning, be it mold or CO or a leaky gas pipe. Also some kind of illness sounds plausible.What I don't get is how they come to the conclusion "I know: Ray gun!"? Probably because another similarity between the people that told me these stories was they are complete technophobes. No clue about anything.

content: As a side comment “my neighbours are spying on me and attacking me” is an extremely common complaint from some people who are suffering an illness of some sort. A neighbour of my parents kept calling the Police to report that her neighbour was attacking her with “black boxes” that could see and hear her through the party wall. She was certain that this was happening even though she had absolutely no proof and her neighbours could not have been nicer people. Sadly when some illnesses take hold of vulnerable peoples minds, they need a focal point for their fears or aggression. A neighbour is sadly a common ‘victim’ of this paranoia as they are known to the sufferer and close enough to be blamed for all that persons ills. It is very common for sufferers to become fixated on the activities, real or imagined, of that neighbour and the situation can get out of control for both partiesI was very interested to read of the potential for fungus and mould spores causing illness as sadly many people live in damp accommodation where mould can grow. The effect of a CO leak is also very interesting. Sadly, all too often, we only hear of deaths due to CO leaks rather than illness caused by less severe environmental poisoning.When someone has negative thoughts about what someone else might be doing to them, it is common for the ‘sufferer’ to seek knowledge through Googling. The internet can be used for good or bad and sadly there are plenty of people on the Internet who will fuel a persons fears and make money from those fears if they are able. Do not get me started on quack technology sold on eBay to find Ghosts and sources of harmful EMF ! Taking advantage of a person who is suffering from a confused mental state is despicable.Some sufferers of mental confusion will seek out ‘experts’ on the chosen topic and that will include coming to forums such as this. They may also seek guidance from Quack outfits claiming expertise in the chosen topic and will likely have their fears confirmed which is, in truth, what they are hoping for ! Sad but true. Some sufferers just want confirmation that they are right in their suspicions rather than being told that they are not. It is a sad situation. Mental health experts likely know all the classic clinical signs of these people who suffer anxiety through thinking others are “out to get them”. It is for those professionals to help, but that needs the sufferer to approach them in the first instance, rather than having their fears fed by Quack experts.What can this forum do about this situation ? In a word, nothing. We are a friendly bunch and offer good advice and when these unusual posts appear, we are mostly kind but firm in our comments. That is the way to continue as we do not know the circumstances of the person behind the post. I, for one, would not wish to be harsh with a person suffering deep depression and causing them to jump in front of a train because they feel worthlessSome people, just need someone to talk to about their problems and we can only help to steer them in the correct direction for genuine help. Kindness costs nothing

content: cdev I will read your stuff (and notate some of that chemical info), just too much right this minute, what with Monday morning doldrums, thanks.I did notice, a bit confrontational, at the neighbor's door, EXPECTING him to open up, and, OP, according to your rules, 8:30 am being slightly early for many folks, such as emergency workers / fire department, etc. More like 9:00 flat, especially for those 'repeat' expectations, that he just 'open up' his door.I used to do more of that confrontational shit; essentially doing cover, for Property Manager's job.Never comes out good, unless a person is certain that there needs to be aggressive engagement, but then that almost always requires a 'third cool head', like your Apt. Manager to take the reins.I mean, perhaps you can arrange a short move, across the way, or get a unit in next building over, using same property, with all of that keeping out of (that one neighbor's) business.The mental health aspects, also often relates to age and experience. Like, I learned; don't get confrontational, with a Meth user, (they tweak easy).But living in San Leandro, I've learned, you gotta extend a ton of 'extra' respect. We have a neighbor, kid has some issues, with aggressive play / constant screaming. I just think, 'One of us...a member' of the human race.Get your requests to landlord documented, if choose that route, but that's not your war, there!

I think it's a combination of poor education and understanding of the world and personal circumstance.Best to educate, help with the personal circumstances if you can and move on, quickly if they are really really nuts.It's important not discredit immediately but shape the argument because the immediate answer is you are part of the problem in some way.

And hence that notable deviations are to be expected.

content: Thank you to everyone that responded. I waited to see what the responses were, so I could respond in one post.Please know I am *not* trying to spam anyone! My first registration and post on your site was this past week and I have never been hear under any other name.My only goal was advice about how some of these things could possibly have been done. Larry has already harassed me by pounding on the walls and waking me up at odd hours, so I don’t think its all related to mould or CO poisoning (though I could be wrong).I will try to find out about CO and mold, but my complex is newer and very well maintained and maintenance lives in one of the apartments (not one near me though).I am long past hot flashes and had already gone to my doctor. He advises there is no physical reason for these symptoms. I am not a conspiracy theorist, or a subscriber to supernatural / alien / tin foil hat theories. And I don’t think I referenced any of these in my first post above.I would *love* to move – but my rent is the cheapest in the area and I can barely afford that. I have asked my rental office for an apartment transfer as soon as one becomes available.FWIW, I have slept at relative’s/friends’ houses and not a single thing I described above happened at any other place.Thank you again for your advice. I especially appreciate the advice of Fraser and cdev who didn’t just assume I was a crackpot. The hardest thing about going through this has been no one I could tell about for fear of being labeled a crackpot. It literally took me months to get the nerve to post about Larry.CDev, Larry sounds a whole lot like Ted (except for the banging on the window thing). I don’t think he goes out begging; even my other neighbors say he rarely leaves the house. I think he is on social security.I wish this was a hallucination. But over a year’s experience tells me that it isn’t. None of it occurs anywhere else except when I'm home. And vicious neighbors can and do exist. Larry seems a textbook example. Whatever it is, no one should have to go through it.

So a person can notice sudden feelings of being blown with hot air, and/or the bottom of laptops can get "red hot" (not really, but sort of), so if someone moves it and suddenly sit on or touch that bit, on a bed, it can feel very hot, for a limited period of time.They can also cause vibrations (internal fans, spinning hard disk drives, in older laptops, as newer ones tend to have SSDs, which are vibration free).I think, putting ones ear near a mattress, can even 'magnify' such sounds/vibrations, perhaps making it seem like there is a whirring machine, nearby. Caused by a laptop, on that bed/mattress.Also, beds/bedding tends to block the laptops air cooling vents, possibly over-heating it, filling it with dust and hence giving excessive wear and tear. So it is not the best way of treating laptops.

content: Please understand; I'm no perfect saint, rather a (partially) reformed 'A-hole'...(But kinda cute, and never been arrested, lol). Point is, I have some limited wisdom to convey, to those ready for that.When I was doing aggressive moves, such as OP demanding conversation, about this or that perception of 'offense', some friend started saying "chill out, better to not focus on neighbor...never goes well".OP, you've so far, violated your neighbor's peace and quiet enjoyment, of his rental space. I mean, FOUR times, you went downstairs, for a 'talk', feeling like he refused to open door. That's literally getting into 'legal' and 'lawful' territory, in my layman's opinion. Now, you want a bunch of Engineers, (and a few nerds), to start giving legal advice, plus methods how to SPY on folks, all the while claiming to be 'scared'...but not enough to stop OP from going to his door, like FOUR times after he expressed a preference for you NOT doing that.He could start a legal case AGAINST YOU...maybe.In that case, your (supposedly) vicious downstairs neighbor would need a few 'monitors' on your victim ass. Then, OP, you'd get to 'talk' as much as the judge can stand, and let him or her decide, if your neighbor has valid grounds, for a restraining order...on you.Like I said, you might be totally in the right, but looking to me like you actually already violating HIS rights, to peaceful enjoyment of his space.Heck, do the floors creak a bit ? Even that can contribute, to this little, tiny, itty bitty maybe, you've got a clutch on.What other WEB posts do you have going, now ?

content: Some times harassment is real. I have five neighbors with five houses who are related. They very much want a sixth house for another sibling, but they do not want to pay for it. They are not the sharpest tools in the shed, and some of their schemes are very damaging to one's reputation. Very, Very, Persistent.They control the narrative in the neighborhood, and my other neighbors are scarred by them. Never violent, not quite dumb enough to get caught. An important clue was the husband and wife next to me argue like brother and sister, not husband and wife.I was finally clued in from a neighbor from their section of rural West Virginia. It took a while for the Sheriff and I to work out what was going on. Five different last names. Once I knew, the personal similarities were obvious.A good camera system shut down most of the crap, but cost a around 1000$ when done to really cover the house as it is built into a hill and has multiple porches. I found I needed a UPS too. They waited till a power failure and broke in, they went for the camera controller and nothing else. I found the controller smashed on the floor. Hence the UPS.OP, Get your mental and physical health checked... Sick building syndrome, Ergot Poisoning, Black Mold, Carbon Monoxide, and Stress are real.

God that's just evil. Its like that in San Francisco too with some bad landlords, and tenants who if they have been there decades, often have cheap rent. A nice apartment can easily rent for $4500 a month. More if it has parking ,or a balcony. In 1995 it might have rented for $2500 or even less. You would not believe the crazy stuff they do to force the old rent stabilized tenants to move out so they can get the developer types who will pay $4500 to live near work in. . There are professional building clearer's now, who rent out their services in driving other tenants out. You can find their ads in the local papers, (rarely online) Try your local apartment owners association. For an eye opening conversation pretend to have just bought an apartment building and be looking for a quick turnover of a vacant building. Tell them that there are retired people there who are planning to live there their entire lives. Oh and people with chronic illnesses, see what they say to you about what they propose to do. They will make the tenants lives impossible. Kind of what like what happened to Fran. What can people do? If they just rent, not much. These battles can go on for years and become very ugly. If you doubt my words, do a Google search for the story of Skyline Realty in SF. Also if you use web.archive.org look at old web pages on citistop.orgDealing with this stuff made me really ill. They used a bone-fide chemical and biological weapon on me. I have tons of official proof. But I still had to move. Once I complained they became determined to get us out. The more proof we got the worse they got.This was from a local paper back then. No the firm described weren't my landlord, our landlord was even worse. Less responsible, more hostile. This kind of thing is happening on a very large scale to a great many people. Its like the Gold Rush right now. Grab as much as you can as fast as you can. Every news story in some cities is overshadowed by this conflict. ."Attorneys said yesterday they’re filing the suit after hearing the same stories year after year from tenants who were victims of Skyline abuse. Most begin the same way: tenants were living in a quiet, peaceful building until Skyline moved in.The suit alleges that soon after taking ownership of a building, Skyline begins employing a variety of tactics to get as many long-term tenants out as possible. They employ such tactics so they can then charge higher rents for the newly vacant units. Their tactics include:• Sending large men wearing military fatigues and carrying concealed weapons barging into units and videotaping tenants• Verbally harassing, threatening and abusing tenants• Interrogation sessions that often involve an attempt to coerce tenants into signing an agreement to vacate their unit• Illegal construction, often designed to cause tenants discomfort• Changing locks and not providing tenants with new keys• Interfering with caregivers who provide assistance to senior and disabled tenantsAlan Kaufman, one of the plaintiffs in the lawsuit, said he witnessed many ofthese tactics first-hand after Skyline purchased his building.“The whole place changed after they took over,” said Kaufman, who lives at 1126 Bush Street. “We had no problems at all, then suddenly we had these thugs – big guys in suits – lumbering around our halls, intimidating people. One of them showed up to my neighbors place in a combat outfit with a gun.”The effect of these tactics, said Kaufman, was immediate.“People left the building in droves,” he said.Karen Hull, one of the attorneys filing the suit, said that the most disturbing aspect of these tactics is how they are often targeted at senior and disabled long-term tenants who can least afford to move out from their homes.“They pick the most vulnerable, low-income people,” said Hull, who is representing Lisa Cleis, the sole caregiver of her disabled mother and another tenant harassed by Skyline. “Then they zero in on their worst fear, which someone of authority who wants to kick them out.”Attorneys in the case hope the suit will prove to the court that these types of practices are not used during isolated events, but are systematic efforts by Skyline that ultimately constitute their usual business practices.“For more than 20 years, my office has seen this pattern repeat itself over and over,” said tenant attorney J. Scott Weaver. “With this suit, we know we’ll have some impact. The question will be how much.”The legal battle represents just one way Skyline will be impacted. This Saturday at noon, at the corner of Market and Church, tenants and housing activists will stage a picket of Skyline headquarters and ask the company to sign an agreement to stop their illegal practices.For more information about the campaign, go towww.citistop.org."Look up the phrase "rent control should not be a life sentence" to find the building clearers ads.. . Even if you own your own home, you're not safe, because of eminent domain. Any developer with a get rich quick scheme can buy your neighborhood for their pet stadium or whatever. Especially after its been condemned it will likely be very cheap. if houses use the now "obsolete" natural gas heat they can argue that now. .They write them off as "NIMBYS". And demonize them.I lived in San Francisco during the last big period of redevelopment. It looked like Hiroshima or Nagasaki there, entire blocks were condemned, with red tape X's on the door. (they wanted to build a freeway right through the most affordable area, which was called the Western Addition and they almost did. But people came out and stood up for their homes.. They eventually tore parts of the freeway that had already been built down. Some houses which were valuable were sold for $1 and carted away on big trucks. . What was left, a very few landmark buildings along Fillmore Street. Almost all of what was then Japan Town was replaced by really ugly looking housing developments. Very low quality construction. They left the library. The developers got all the land, cheap, after they decided not to build the freeway, after all. By the time they started building again all the warm and friendly old black people who they had promised could buy into the brand new homes had died before any aid was forthcoming to them (a very long time) . So all their obligation to compensate them died with them. Most of the people who had lived there who were still alive ended up in Sacramento (according to a survey) They were forced out of the Bay Area for good. If you want to buy a house around there, even in Hunters Point (which is beautiful, BTW) be prepared to spend several million dollars. Who can afford that? Not me.

Suppose we assume the poor guy is being harased in some bizarre way, ans he/she decides to "retaliate' The very fact that they are doing that makes them look like they share the culpabiity to many people. I agree with the poster above who suggests you invite friends over. Make it clear you are a tenant too and deserve the right to still have fun in your home in a nice manner.Throw backyard parties.Some bad actors try, very hard to get their victims angry because they are well prepared to take advantage of that in any way they can. I think the best approach is just to be nice, stay in the loop and talk to people about your problems, amicably. Dont be silent. Just behave as amicably and normally as you can under the circumstances.Don't get into the abused person state of mind. Many people who have been taken advantage of their entire lives slip into that mindset all too easily. Sure, law enforcement may be non-functional, many communities are strugging because there just are no or very few local jobs and no tax income. There really are few if any solutions for that. Its likely just going to get worse. You need to stay in the loop, and have people to help you regardless. Keep people talking, if you're reasonable you'll appear that way. Try to keep it civil and I would not call the police except in a real emergency, because things often turn out badly when police get involved. Unless they know the people. On the other hand, sometimes hiring off duty police is a really good way to promote safety at a party. If your party is large consider that. Patrol Specials they are called.

I turned the bed and it was gone, slept as before. I don't understand this but birds can sense the northpole why woukd humans not have these sub conscious sensitivities?When you have that experience you might also have issues when sleeping near electrical wires esp in the usa with wooden walls nothing blocks the electromagnetical influence.Perhaps move your bed or switch rooms and see if that helps.On the other hand you might have an awfull neighbour, call the person living there before you and ask for their experience.

content: Quote from: Blakeneydp on May 08, 2022, 02:25:28 amSuch thing can be caused due to very high power microwave beam, for example microwave oven with opened door and hacked power switch on it's door to allow enable it with opened door. When you feel that heat, you can get your cell phone and put at that location, then check if it starts failure or lose network. If you see that effect on your phone, then this is a strong indication that you are affected with high-power microwave beam. If you see that, then leave the room as soon as possible.Don't afraid, this is not so dangerous, if you get away for 5-10 meters, the beam power will be dramatically decreased and you cannot feel the heat. Just avoid to be affected with high power microwave beam for a long time.But sometimes it's happens that some crazy neighbor can perform some physics experiments with x-ray tube or radioactive materials, it can be very dangerous for health. But it will be much more dangerous for your neighbor who doing that things. Anyway it's a good idea to check also radioactivity in your room to be sure that your room environment is healthy. If you found some sign of high radioactivity, call police immediately and leave room as soon as possible. Radioactivity is very dangerous.
