Don't let radiation run riot
Two items in Brighton's local press.
First one is Sarah's letter which appears in this months Brighton "Whistler" newsletter, and which also appeared in the Sussex Argus and Kemptown rag a few weeks back:
"I was very surprised to read in The Argus 3/3/07 that the new eco flagship Brighton library has installed DECT (digital cordless) phones on every floor. People seem not to realise that the base unit of these phones emits microwave radiation all the time whether or not one is on a call. Both DECT and Wifi use the same technology as mobile phone masts. The intensity inside the library will be the same or higher than from a phone mast outside. There is evidence coming to light that these systems are less than safe. The frequency is the same as used in a microwave oven. The Times recently covered the fact that schools which are also installing Wifi are having to dismantle it at the request of parents and teachers who experience serious adverse health effects. Librarians in the USA are resigning over this issue. There is a lot of research into the effects and many people made ill from exposure to the radiation emitted by these systems as highlighted on the Richard and Judy show. It is possible to cable in computers for internet access. Wifi is not necessary. Info can be found from http://www.mastsanity.org" .
Second one in todays Sussex Argus readers letters from a "Graham Chainey" headed "Don't let radiation run riot". Extracts:
"A growing number of people - up to three per cent of the population already - suffer from electromagnetic hypersensitivity, which can be a highly disabling condition"
"Surrounded by gadgets and equipment in our homes and offices, we live amid an invisible but all-pervasive electrosmog. No one knows what this may do to us in the long term"
"In recent years we have been bombarded with mobile phone radiation. Every company apparently has to have its own network of masts"
"And now this fad for wi-fi. Schools have rushed to instal the system, so convenient for internet access. Whole cities are installing it, so people can use their laptops wherever they go."
"I believe if the radiation from these systems was made visible, they would all be banned."
"I would beg those considering city wide wi-fi to think again"
Send letters to letters@theargus.co.uk . When none of the letters sent by MS members were published several weeks ago, the editor told me they were too technical and to keep them short.
