anyone else having electronics issues? MAP added!
23 March update: Still adding reports to the map. Changed the map from anyone can edit to just me. While the clown that moved the balloons all over the map was amusing it messes with the analysis.

So keep adding thoughts, theories and reports.


Update: Did not expect this many responses. Add your general location, will start a Google map and see if there's a pattern.

UPDATE 2: By request, now adding physical data, dizzy, vertigo, etc. BLUE balloon for electronics, RED balloon for physical.

If you can't add to the map, post general location, I or someone else will add your data.


BTW, Thanks for my first pin!!!!!!!!!

Link to Map. Add your general location and I'll add it to the map.

Hawaii, Michigan, Northeast and Netherlands added to map.

No solar alerts on the NOAA space weather system.

Just wondering if anyone else is having some issues. One or two and I wouldn't notice but a bunch at a time is odd. Over the past couple of days:

Lost data on one 32 gig usb thumb drive, others have errors. Not normally connected. (Win XP, Vista, 7)

engine light on the truck is on - issue does not exist.

Comcast program descriptions offline, remotes not working very well. (won't turn cable box on and off, program guide not working right, won't turn off - on all 4 boxes / televisions)

"Unable to connect" on my usual DNS servers.

Slower internet connections.

Phone ringing weird (rings are 15 seconds long).

Digital camera acting wonky. Shows directories on the camera that aren't there. (Win XP, Vista, 7)

Hell, maybe the NSA and DHS is finally tired of my shenanigans and is looking to drive me crazy.

Sattelite is working weird. Either the remote won't turn it on right away or it doesn't turn on right away.

Several blackouts in my neighborhood over the last few weeks, without any adverse weather conditions.

BTW, this is in SE Michigan. I should throw this on a Google map - going to wait and see if any morans show up.

I keep getting light, buzzing electrical shocks from almost everything - even touching the wood walls of a house yesterday

and yes, my computer has been acting very squirrly - randomly opening up pages without me touching anything, diconnecting and reconnecting to the Internet even when I'm only a few feet from the wifi modem

Why would you steal some ones ebt card? That's messed up. It's probably not jammed probably it ate it because most likely it got reported missing.

Same here. I'm getting constant static shocks. I'm one of "those" people that is apparently well grounded. Well, it's been snowing/raining here in Michigan. Trust me, the humidity is high. Static shocks outside constantly. Getting tired of it.

Interesting thing about the buzzing and shocks - my partner has not been affected. Touched the handle of a pan sitting on the stove and got buzzed - my partner touched it and felt nothing - I touched it again and it still buzzed

Some of us more sensative than others?

Ah yes. I should have been more complete, my bad.

The device lights on the remote light as usual (Comcast goes aux, tv, cable). Lights still go in normally. Checked the output with a cam and the emitter is going on.

One remote on first floor, second on second floor, two more on third floor. All with same issues which is what got me on this issue in the first place.

Another issue is my damn super-duper atomic clock isn't picking up the broadcast for the past week either.

Re: anyone else having electronics issues? MAP added!
Not that I'm aware of... Not today anyway.

made a thread a couple weeks ago about receiving calls from random phone numbers and no one being on the line when I answered. It was definitely not a telemarketer or mass dialer- one number I called back and the girl said she hadn't touched her phone in a half hour. The other day, I had a guy from Memphis calling me and it turns out he said he answered because I was calling him... We got to talking about how weird it was, we both have T-Mobile and he was experiencing what I was a couple weeks ago.

I chalked it up to mobile having issues.

OK, I've got a stupid question -

I've never used google maps for anything other than looking up an address - how/what exactly am I suppose to do to help you map this?
