Why do you believe this? Cite evidence. You're certainly doing no better than the article here.

Evidence for what? The article gives evidence that it just happened to one person. I'm using logic to show that that doesn't fit the model of a sonic weapon.

Here is some evidence linking tinnitus to psychiatric disorders:

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/16844885

"A close association between tinnitus and psychiatric disorders has been demonstrated".

That's great, but you alleged this was the cause of a specific person's symptoms. Your citation does not support your claim – it's circumstantial and speculative.

>it's circumstantial and speculative

So is the original allegation in the article. I'm saying that psychiatric explanation fits the facts better. If you have any evidence to the contrary, feel free to post it...

Do you have something against a psychiatric explanation?

You alleged "mass hysteria". Come on man.

No, that was user psychometry.
