O2 made a preapplication consultation with residents in Baxenden, Accrington for an iphone mast. Following a public meeting, we rallied people to write and object, over 60 people did so. This was quite remarkable considering we had only about a week to respond. Apart from the normal health concerns, we decided to put them on notice by sending letters of intent to hold them responsible should anyone develop an illness due to the mast. Secondly we all threatened to boycott O2 and their services if they went ahead. We received a response that they would not proceed with this application at this time and would actively seek an alternative site, including the possibility to add this equipment to an existing mast.

Thanks also to Sylvia Wright in sending me information on Barrie Trower's reports.


Did anyone see the recent TV programme on Vanessa - Mae, the violin virtusoso?

In the programme, she was asked to sign her name and then asked to do it again with an electro-magnetic device close to her head. She was UNABLE to do it. The purpose was to show the part of her brain which controlled her musical ability. However, it struck me that all it succeeded in doing was to show how electromagnetic radiation instantly affects brain function. Maybe we would make use of this high profile demonstration to put pressure on our politicians to show the effects of using a mobile phone or living close to a mast?
