Re: FCC proposes to eliminate landlines. Comments due April 18.

This makes no sense at all. It just keeps getting worse and worse. I have come

to the conclusion this year after 3 more GMO's were approved that the Government

is our enemy. I had never felt that way before.

Wow,

 

I could never believe that a government that is willing give our tax money to

fraudulent banks, continue making weapon's grade nuclear weapons, refusing to

really fix any major problem and pissing all over the people's so-called

" freedom " as well as the heart and soul of the US Constitution possibly be a

friend to me?  Money is God to these mind-sets.  With friends like these, who

needs enemies?  Here's one...most world governments aren't very friendly to

their citizens... but there are some (ie. Sweden)

I'm new to this group and overwhelmed by what you all are writing. I joined as

a result of a search on smart meters. The assertion about the evidence agains

wireless tech is of interest as I am finding it hard to " prove " that WiFi can be

the source of symptoms that my son and I have. Where can I find the science?

Hi Olha,

Some governments health agencies are warning against Wi-Fi:

-Germany

-Salzburg, Austria

-European Parliament, Health Concerns Associated with Electromagnetic Fields

For the science, check:

http://www.wireless-precaution.com/main/science.php

There are many complaints about Wi-Fi:

-Children in Simcoe Canada were also getting ill from Wi-Fi routers

-Workers at France National Libary were getting sick from it and had it

withdrawn.

- BBC Panorama had a good program about Wi-Fi which is probably now on youtube

somewhere.

Here's a good brochure:

You might also want to see www.microwavenews.com and read also about the

beginnings of the microwave oven and how because of their lack of safety they

were banned where they came from Russia.

Microwaves in your oven or on your house, they still have the same effects.

March 8 article - cellphones affect brain activity, shown on PET scan.

While it usually still called nonionizing that is not correct either, it is

ionizing, it only takes longer for it to occur than with highly ionizing

frequencies.
