well, I will and can say this, my friend who failed, was so extremely nervous, even before going into the poly the 2nd time, after they accused him of lying...I totally believe, that the accusation, upset him so much so, that, he will never be able to take a poly again. He is a nervous person to begin with, and I do know this, when you accuse an honest person of deception, it unravels them to the point of appearing guilty. I believe it is the worst thing you can do to an honest person, b/c they tend to pride themselves on being honest....and as for me, when someone is speaking to me or I them, I don't look them in the eyes all the time. It is not b/c I'm lying, but b/c I'm consentrating. My friend is somewhat the same. I'm sure after failing that 1st poly, he just fell apart...and couldn't pass them from then on.
But, fact of the matter is, I know for a fact, that he didn't lie...and he might have appeared nervous b/c he was afraid this machine would fail him and he'd miss a tremendous upgrade in pay, which would have made a huge betterment for his family.
In other words, his dream job and huge pay increase were rejected, and rejection is a terrible thing, espcially when you know your telling the truth!
Is there anything I can do to help...if there is, please let me know...
Yanno, I know for a fact, I wouldn't be able to take a polygraph, as I pride myself as being an honest person and actually am known to be so honest I step on toes. My mother was that way?

So, to, is my friend, that failed the poly...my point is, the moment they'd hook me up to any poly, I'd probably fall apart. I was accused of stealing something once, when I was a kid...I allowed them to search me, and they said, "you appeared so guilty!" Some people are simply like that, period.
In reading these stories in this forum, I can tell you, honestly, my heart completely sinks for these people who have failed....and will fail....it is, to me, inhuman, to try and second guess a human being. We humans are extremely conceited enough to actually think after this so called poly training, that we can actually read when someone is lying?

I mean, think about the credibility of THAT person?
