Gremlins
Gremlins are little creatures that make machinery breakdown or malfunction, or that's the myth anyway. In reality, most Gremlins are us, people. When some people get upset or angry, machinery around them goes haywire. It varies a lot depending on the person and how angry they are. Some cause computers to crash, cell phones to stop working, and radio signals to get scrambled. With most, it's somewhat milder and they may not notice it and realize the connection.
I know when I was working in downtown Washington several years ago, and taking the subway part way, when I would get angry or upset about something, I would generate so much static that I would erase the magnetic strip on my subway ticket and have to buy a new one.
So who is a Gremlin, and who isn't? My guess is people who naturally have a lot of energy, or have increased their energy by some type of spiritual development are the ones most likely to have this problem. And if we have that affect on machines, what affect are we having on other people? That's why it is important for people developing spiritually to learn to control their temper. Not by holding it in, which only makes it worse, but by understanding that anger is harmful to yourself and others, and maybe to that expensive iPhone.

I've seen this happen a lot. I also think that it happens sometimes to people who have a lot of energy, not just agngry or negative energy, but just strong energy that is radiating off of them when they are not paying attention to directing it anywhere. I think that energy when undirected can find it's way to latch on to machinery. I have an old and dear friend who is a wonderful and kind person and very spiritual. She has a strong energy and she would often report that when she got out of work late at night from her job at a hospital as a radiologist she would have this problem. On her drive on the quiet dark roads as she approached the street lights they would blow out. We used to joke that if the city found out she would get a big bill for the light bulbs. I think she was so full of energy that after a long day at work she would be too tired to direct her energy anywhere and there it would go to the street lights. I've had the opportnity to witness it happen more than once. But I think it's certainly much worse when someone is angry or frustrated. I myself have noticed that in my day where I work with the multitude of office machines that when I'm having a very hectic day and I get lost in my duties to the degree that I get frustrated and scattered that I'll start having trouble with the machines. When I notice and take a break and have a little quiet time things will get back to normal. I used to be an angry person (a gremlin), but have learned and grown a lot over the years and am not prone to anger anymore. When I was, everything went wrong. Now that I have acknowledged that and work hard to heal that part of myself I still find it happens but at a lesser level and it happens when I'm frustrated or simply overly busy and my focus and energy is scattered. It also seems to me that it's "catchy". Since we're all connected it seems that many of us will unknowingly pick up on that energy. Doesn't it seem like when your having "one of those days" that many other people around are too?

Yes, I think it can spread to others. Like a contageous illness at the phychic level. While this probably can happen to peoplewho are very energized, but not emotional, I think it most often happen when someone is in a strong emotional state, whether it be anger, frustration, relief, tired, whatever. Like a polterguist. Most polterguist activity is traced to a teenager in the house going through puberty, or some other highly emotional state.
