Hi, i saw the documentary roughly 25 years ago on TV. I am 39 yrs.....
Yes this is exactly what happened. Apparently it was some kind of strobing that occured when instructed by the broadcast, ie something in the TV signal that activated the strobing in the TV set.
If it sounds far fetched consider this, have you seen signs at the movie threatres about strobing warnings to epiliptic people in particular movies.
A red stobe at a particular frequency will cause some to have epiliptic fits!
so its not far fetched. apparently the strobing did something to reduce the ability to not over indulge. Once they finally discovered the device in the TV, that was no simple feat, they started the chase on those involved but the company trail ran into a dead end, they dissapeared. no trace!!!!!!!
Also consider this, coca cola did in fact have small amounts of cocaine in it many years ago, so its not a case of "would they do it". yes they would.
my understanding was that it was a documentary and not a "War of the Worlds". but i was young when i watched it so ???????
I was just remembering about that TV show and so did google on 'the brunswick affair' and found this thread.
