as an examiner, I would tell you to come back at a later date after the stim.

if I have someone sniffing and coughing all through the stim, they will do it in the "in-test" as well. Only an idiot would run a test on an examinee in some sort of distress because of a cold or flu.

I always laugh when I see charts I didn't run where the only time comeone coughs, sneezes or sniffles is right before or in the middle of the control questions.

when I see that I have to admit it raises an eyebrow.

Glue on the finger tips, wow, That will work for about 1 second before the examiner catches on. PNC/DI will be the call. Do some reading, and put away to old wives tails.

Glue....(laughing) that is funny

Mr Maschke,

  what if you took a polygraph with a cold?  Sneezing and wheeezing with uncontrollable coughing and restlessness?   would the examiner give any grace as far as his findings in his readings?

I concur with EosJupiter's remarks.

Greg,

Down load the book TLBTLD, (The Lie Behind the Lie Detector),  from this website learn how to mentally beat the polygraph. Read chapters 3 & 4 and be prepared for your test next week.  I am sure, as from others on this website will attest,  your attempt to just defeat one of the sensors will be a fools errand. Besides in every poly I ever took, they make you wash your hands before you take the test, and if the sensor shows no response the polygrapher will know that something is up. Good luck but if you succeed at this, please do post. Anyone else want to chime in ?

I was sitting here tonight ponding my forthcoming poly on Dec. 3, and my eyes came to rest on this bottle of Elmer's glue on my desk.  As a child, I remember smearing the stuff all over my hands and then pulling it off in sheets.  That got me thinking, however, about the qualities of glue and how the adhesive forms a visually undetectable film across the surface of the skin.  The next logical thing to wonder then is, what would the possibility be of getting away with coating my fingertips in elmer's glue before sitting down in front of the poly examiner?  Has anyone ever tried this?  It would certainly seem to keep the fingertip sensors from registering any data.
