Maybe so but ..... friends of mine started having lots of problems with
their credit cards, every so often they would use one and then have it
bomb or have it confiscated ... it reached the point where they were
starting to get parinoid untill one night at the movies I ask if they
were carrying an magnets  ....  it turned out she had a refrigerator
magnet in her purse she had been carrying around loose for a few months
getting rid of the magnet fixed the problem ....
