How the hell????...

How the hell can you get to your FINAL project, and not know that sensing a AC current from 10 cm away is VERY VERY difficult, especially with all the wireless signals bouncing around all over the place, corrupting a very low level signal. Hell, Ive never studied electronics in my life,...Im dumb as a stump...but even I know this.
