To Dan and Joe McCarthy (and all other polygraphers who visit AP):

If you want to clean up your industry, try to reach out to jw00001.  Perhaps you can communicate with him through PM (might have to go through AP admin).

Find out who the name of this federal polygrapher and expose him.  Let him know it is totally unacceptable behavior to interpret the following as countermeasures:

(1)  relaxing mental imagery
(2)  slow heart rate (long-distance running)
(3)  strong Catholic upbringing
(4)  etc.


By the way I am a retired aerospace employee who worked on SCI programs.  I was a physics major (BS and MA) and appreciate the scientific approach.  I took two CSP polygraphs in 1994 and four in 2000.  The polygraphs were administered in Room 343 somewhere in Southern California.  One of the (year 2000) polygraphers Gary Allen was a complete disgrace, having researched my 1994 polygraphs and describing them as "rocky" and also shoving his credentials onto me in an attempt to impress/intimidate me.  Totally unacceptable behavior.  If any of Room 343 polygraphers want to respond to me on this board you may do so, just keep it civil.  Let me explain to you the difference between junk science and valid science.
