Jim,
Let's deal with one basic useful fact at a time.

Certainly, as long as it is static and not time-varying at
high frequencies. Once the sheet is several skin depths
thick, the answer is no.

I'm not sure if Smith doesn't understand what the shield is
doing or didn't explain it well.

I'll side with Maxwell, Lentz, and Faraday and all the
engineers I've worked with over the years.

Reference Data for Radio Engineers, ITT Books, Chapter 29,
Radio Noise and Interference.
That's a peer reviewed technical reference publication, not
a personal paper or non-reviewed article.
Anyone interested in noise should get that book if they find
it someplace.
The fact weak distant noises accumulate is exactly why the
ARRL is so worried about BPL. It will affect everyone, not
just those near the BPL sites.
