Ok, I need to know what in the world this story is.

And if it's MRI related, I'd say they're equally stupid. There are signs on every door, besides how can one not know about MRI's today.

I'm also confused about this story (the chain and lock guy) - wouldn't he have to be within 2 or 3 feet for it to have that much strength? It's an EM field, inverse-square law applies, right? I've had MRI's, any steel even 10ft away is unaffected.
