Can wearing an abduction helmet prevent or reduce abductions?

Michael Menkin, an abduction researcher, is asking for volunteers to test out a new abduction helmet. According to Menkin, "The device works by stopping alien mind control over humans. My device consists of a leather helmet with layers of special conductive plastic, the same material used to prevent static electricity damage to printed circuit boards. When worn over the head, the device acts as an insulator for telepathic control. Its function is not proven, I realize, but a shield for blocking mind control is worth trying."

Menkin continued, "I got the idea for blocking telepathic control from the novels of E.E. "Doc" Smith, where science fiction characters fight one another using telepathic control as a weapon. In Smith's novels, the protagonists use "thought screens" to prevent telepathic control from their enemy. After Smith, I call my telepathy blocking helmets "thought screen helmets."

Menkin said, "I realize that the "thought screen helmet" cannot be tested. The only way to find out if it works is for an abductee to wear it for a period of time and have an encounter where he/she will know that the alien's lost their ability to control the minds of abductees.

Menkin explained, "If AAER has an abductee who would like to try the "thought screen helmet" I will send it to them absolutely free. With all of the difficulties reported by abductees, somebody should be willing to try the "thought screen helmet."
