said to George, "Sometimes I feel
vibrations from people. Do you have any kind of idea what it might
be?"
    George looked incredulous, and I knew that I
had just said something that was outside his scientific belief
system. I got the same reaction that I would have if I said that I
had been talking to a Mason jar.
    George said, "There is nothing in
electromagnetic theory that would explain that."
    I thought I observed that his vibration had
dropped.
    "What theory is that?" I asked.
    George grew stiff and said, "Anything like that
is against the laws of Physics as expressed by Maxwell's
equations."
    "Maxwell?" I inquired.
    "He was a nineteenth century mathematician who
wrote the equations about how all electromagnetic waves and even
light behave. For the cell phones we were talking about, Maxwell’s
equations say that as you get farther from a cell tower, the
signal, or number of bars you get goes down exponentially. If you
are one mile from a cell tower and you move to two miles, the
signal level drops by a factor of eight. If you move from one mile
to three miles, the signal drops by a factor of
twenty-eight.
    "The human nervous system generates very low
frequency signals, which can be detected with electrodes when
thousands of cells, such as heart cells, fire in synchronism. The
signal levels are so low they can't be radiated from the body with
any strength that is detectable by even the most sensitive
electronic instrument. I am not a physiologist, but I am certain
that no antennas or sensitive receivers have been dissected from
bodies. Although two human bodies might be jammed together there
could not be enough electrical energy transmitted to be
observable," George lectured.
    I quickly thought of Tina, bodies jammed
together, and then Uriel. It was obvious George was getting upset
so I tried to change the subject by saying, "How difficult would it
be to learn about...?" I felt a kind of ragged feeling vibration
coming from George.
    George interrupted and said, "That's why all
that crazy stuff about ESP is pure ignorance, superstition, or the
tricks of charlatans. It is all against the laws of physics. It
doesn't happen except for people with limited critical thinking
skills and a gullible imagination."
    I could see that George would make a great
witness in a trial on this subject.
    "Thanks, George," I said, steering him toward
the door. His eyes were beady, and it didn't look as though he knew
where he was. I walked him out to Carolyn to make sure he got his
parking ticket validated. Carolyn did her shy act with her eyes
lowered and chin down and started chatting and attracted his
attention. He seemed to be coming back to normal so I said goodbye,
shook his hand, and went back to my office.
    I regretted that I had brought the subject of
vibrations up with George. He got very upset. I'm sure he thinks
less of me for broaching a metaphysical subject. Tina must be a bad
influence on me. I am starting to talk like her.
    I spent the rest of the morning working on my
case.
    After lunch, Zaza buzzed me and said, "Mr.
Bracken want to see you."
    "Right now?" I asked.
    "'Immediately' was what they said," replied
Zaza with her sarcastic tone.
    When I arrived at Phil Bracken's office his
secretary, Patty, gave me a look that said something wonderful has
happened. I walked into Phil's office, and he met me with a big
smile and left his chair to give be an enthusiastic
handshake.
    "Congratulations! They settled! Have a seat,"
he said gesturing to a chair. "I guess after they saw your witness
list and witness backgrounds they caved. They met with Paul in our
Washington office and offered a settlement. Paul talked it over
with his friend Robert Sampson, the CEO at Genstem and he said he
would accept their offer. We won! Here is their offer."
    He pushed a copy of the email across the desk
to me. As I read it, I was surprised. It was more than I had
expected.
    "So, we don't have to trial." I said somewhat
in a state of shock, feeling a
