Lincoln,

Your and your friend's actions are just the kind of thing we need to be doing to spread the truth about polygraphs. On our Campus Poster Initiative page, there are a number of posters that can be downloaded and printed for distribution as leaflets or for posting in appropriate places (not necessarily limited to campuses).

If you participate in any other Internet discussion forums or e-mail lists, these might also be appropriate venues for bringing up the polygraph issue.

If you are a member of a police union, or if you will be in the future, you might also seek to get your union involved on the polygraph issue. Organized labor played an important role in the passage of the Employee Polygraph Protection Act of 1988, which unfortunately gives government a blanket exemption from the law by which the private sector must abide. Labor organizations could be very helpful in working towards passage of a Comprehensive Employee Polygraph Protection Act that would end the double standard.

I would like to say that I have been exposing the fraud behind polygraphy to as many people as I reasonably can.  I KNOW I WAS FALSELY ACCUSED AS BEING DECEPTIVE.   Its something that I will never forget nor forgive.  One of my close friends has taken the time to print over 200 fliers this week promoting antipolygraph.org.   He has been handing them to strangers as well as acquaintances.  The more people understand about this hoax, the better it is for all of us.  I overheard a few people at work today speaking about the television program C.S.I., and apparently there was a segment about the unreliability of the polygraph.  I took this time to enlighten them of this website.
