Two middle-aged women arrive from RPRC. After a brief conversation at our kitchen table, which they record, they take EMF readings throughout the house. After they finish, they say that they can’t get the specific readings that they look for, because the electrical wiring and system emits too much unshielded energy. The solution to the thumping noises in the middle of the night, the one we hoped they could bring, isn’t coming.
