On a recent trip back home to the U.S., I wore an "I Know the Lie Behind the Lie Detector" button, and it turned out to be quite successful as a conversation starter. Numerous strangers asked me about it, leading to some interesting discussions. All who commented on the button expressed negative opinions about polygraphy. One of the more interesting conversations I had was with security guards at one of the presidential libraries, where visitors were required to pass through airport-style metal detectors. I had forgotten about the button until one of the guards started reading it out loud. I thought to myself, "Uh-oh, I'm in for extra screening..." But I was pleasantly surprised when he smiled broadly and said, "Those things are garbage!" He and his partner, both former police officers, expressed highly critical views of the polygraph, and as there were few visitors, we had time for a friendly talk, one guard expressing the view that he even though he had passed a polygraph test in the past, he would not be willing to take one again.

The picture below was taken in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania:

Ha. Im buying the pins and giveing htem as gifts to FBI Special Agents Greg Ellison, Michael Schaeffer, and Chris Osborne. I'll send them with my final, "FU, i never lied" letter that i havent gotten around to writing yet" actually maybe the coffee cup is a better gift but since it will most likely go straight to the trash, I suppose I should spend as little as possible.

Here are photographs of some of the items available from the AntiPolygraph.org Online Store.

This is a close-up of the bumpersticker. The photo is a bit dark because of lighting conditions in the room. I'm pleased with the brightness and crispness of the sticker:



And here is the sticker as it now appears on the back of my car. It is clearly readable from a distance:



Here are a couple pictures of the button, with which I am also quite pleased:





And here is the coffee cup, which is made of heavy ceramic:

The following button has been added to the AntiPolygraph.org On-line Store:



Those choosing to adopt the "complete honesty" approach may wish to wear this button to their polygraph interrogation to make it immediately clear to that they know about the truth about lie detectors.

It's also the least expensive item in the store and may be worn on any occasion, clipped to a backpack, etc.

AntiPolygraph.org has established an account with CafePress.com to make available a bumper sticker, coffee cup, shirts, and caps bearing the AntiPolygraph.org logo:

These items are a lowkey way of helping to spread the truth about polygraphs.
