I feel the Aluminum foil is used as a reflective material for insulation purposes. If they’re truly off grid and generate their own electricity, this would be a no brainier.

I’m curious what triple fence means as well. There’s some studies that state a triple fence will deter deer from entering due to their depth perception. I’m probably wrong and the guy has a dmz built.

Foil is a crazy reaction to thinking you can block out radio waves, 5g mind control waves and other electronic signals from your property. Although it sends a strong message to normal people that you probably should be avoided!
Unless you've got multiple layers of fences like a max security prison or an old hill top ringfort.

Could be on the foil. Low-tech cheap solution, that makes you look crazy, but gets the job done...

I don't get the foil. That makes it very dark inside. This whole deal with what has been described is dark. Obama? Given the landscape today I'm totally confused about these folks. That's not PARF talking. That's friggen logic calling.

These folks' game score is tilt.

I don't think that's anything new. I think the main difference is that now we hear about these folks more than we did years ago. I'm assuming back in the day if you were crazy and wanted to be left alone, you live away from most other folks and were left alone. Or you were the one house in the neighborhood that the kids were scared of. THese days, when folks find out about a crazy person, they tell their friends and put it on social media so everyone knows.

Throw in expansion. They didn’t move to the city, the city moved to them….

@masraum, I understand how much traction odd stories get with today's info hiway and a focus on one situation can eclipse dozens that live in old airplane fuselages and such.

Add up the factors here and this is rather extreme, don't you think? What intrigues me is the outwards aspect of triple fences, etc. Absolutely no stealth to their attitude. What is this message?

Where are they going?

I don't care, it's just forum talk.

This couple had intended to move to Chile. They bought property and eventually built a house. Supposedly they had a rough go with the contractor building the house but eventually it was finished. The more they visited the more they realized it was better here. I guess “the sky is falling” can be anywhere.

I can only assume the message is "Stay Away" but I feel like I'd have a better chance of predicting the actions of a serial killer than this type of person.

To be fair, the foil may just be cheap window insulation. Or hiding their meth lab or weed grow room. Who knows?

Awesome setup... sounds like a perfect investment opportunity for a Pelican "group buy"!

Who else no's about it ?

No that’s not it. Don’t think it has hit the multiple listings yet. They were just cleaning out all the junk this week.
