Apparently in the war time she was taking a road trip and suddenly heard music. Not having her car radio on, after a while she realized it was coming from inside her mouth? After a short period, it stopped. She asked a worldly friend what it could be and he asked her if she had had any fillings done recently, she said yes and had temp ones in. Turned out the iron fillings were picking up a local radio broadcast tower on route and her mouth was acting like a speaker.

About a week later, still with the temp ones in she was on another road trip in a different direction. This time she heard what sounded like morse code coming from her mouth. This time her friend contacted the authorities and they went to the area where she picked it up and looked around. Transmission of morse in those days was just really for the military.

They found a house with a complete transmission station underneath it being run by resident Japanese Spy's who were relaying information back to Japan. They were of course arrested.

    So that blind people can hate them as well.
