"The Soviets included a picture with the device that showed an
entire auditorium full of people asleep with the LIDA on the
podium.  The LIDA put out an electric field, a magnetic field,
light, heat, and sound (of course light and heat are
electromagnetic waves, but at a much higher frequency than the low
frequencies of the electric and magnetic fields mentioned above).

"The purported purpose of the LIDA was for medical treatments;
however, the North Koreans used it as a brain washing device
during the Korean War.  The big question is:  what did they do
with the technology?  It could have been improved and/or made
smaller.  It is unlikely that they abandoned something that
worked.

"Direct communication with Ross Adey:  While he was testing the
LIDA 4, an electrician was walking by and asked him where he got
the "North Korean brain washing machine".  Ross told him that is
was a Russian medical device.

"The guy said he had been brain-washed by a device like that when
he was in a POW camp. They placed the vertical plates alongside
his head and read questions and answers to him.  He said he felt
like he was in a dream.  Later when the Red Cross came and asked
questions, he responded with what had been read to him while under
the influence of the device.  He said he seemed to have no control
over the answers.

"The LIDA is PATENTED IN THE US.  Why?  They are not sold in the
US--the only one I know that exists is the one that was at Loma
Linda Medical Center where Adey used to work.  Eldon"

Involuntary neuro-experimentation activist Cheryl Welsh, Davis CA,
sent in this clipping from an article by Dr. Ross Adey but without
complete bibliographic references:

"Soviet investigators have also developed a therapeutic device
utilizing low frequency square wave modulation of a radiofrequency
field.  This instrument known as the Lida was developed by L.
Rabichev and his colleagues in Soviet Armenia, and is designed  for
"the treatment of neuropsychic and somatic disorders, such as
neuroses, psychoses, insomnia, hypertension, stammering, bronchia
asthma, and asthenic and reactive disturbances".

It is covered by U.S. Patent # 3,773,049.  In addition to the
pulsed RF field, the device also delivers pulsed light, pulsed
sound, and pulsed heat.  Each stimulus train can be independently
adjusted in intensity and frequency.
