"Aluminum" at least has 1 less syllable. But I usually just say "foil." What else would I be talking about in that context?
a·lu·mi·num
tin·foil
(Sorry for the 'ackshully', but couldn't resist.)
ACKSHULLY, I was referring to "aluminum" as opposed to "aluminium."
That's not how you spelled it though in your comment.
Is the comment I was replying to.
Fair enough. I didn't read the comment previous to yours, just your comment directly, so I thought you were referring to 'aluminum' versus 'tinfoil'.
One less than aluminium
Didn't even realize that was a word until I looked it up.
Not sure how that relates in a conversation about tinfoil hats usage but sure why not.
I'm sure the composition of the devices has a significant performance impact on their effectiveness, worthy of discussion. :p
