Sprint placed antennas illegally atop a St. Mary's in Boston - Help! Need to wake up Harvard School of Public Health - Feedback COST 281 - Question from Sheila - Recent actions of Representative Lois Capps to protect Central Coast residents - Tom Bearden Website updates - Virus warning

Sprint placed antennas illegally atop a St. Mary's in Boston
------------------------------------------------------------
Sprint also placed antennas illegally atop a St. Mary's in Boston - a women's & infants' center.

The results? Four deaths within the first several months of antenna operation. People fleeing homes. Properties are not selling; the owners are required by law to divulge medical problems that have occurred.

Help! Need to wake up Harvard School of Public Health
-----------------------------------------------------
The Harvard School of Public Health is posting old information
( http://www.hsph.harvard.edu/ats/Jul16/) about cell phone safety, which I feel is longer correct because of Salford's recently published findings and this constitutes a fraud against the public welfare. Have we learned nothing from the tobacco cancer fiasco?

Please write to the Dean of the HSPH and let him know that you are concerned (Barry R. Bloom,  bbloom@hsph.harvard.edu) and would like this article removed or a counter article reviewing the current status of RF radiation safety.

Message from Bob Sklar


Answer from Susan Clarke

Bloom was brought to Harvard precisely because of his "friendliness" to industry.

Whatever you say, he'll ignore it, particularly if you demean real science by lowering it to mere personal "concern" (as below). Guys like Bloom use that word "concern" to disdain "ordinary" people.

Scientific facts, not "concern", have a chance of getting Bloom's attention, if only for the purpose of his encouraging of political moves against poor Salford. Consider potential words and moves with rigorous thought before acting!

Especially where the difference may be life or death to some.

Feedback COST 281

Dear Klaus and Imelda,

My feedback is that COST 281 did not consider the possibility of synergism between the chemical and electrical exposures. The nearest they came to this to this in the report is:

Dr. Johan M. Havenaar observed relevancies between the EHS syndrome and a number of other syndromes deriving from exposure to "ionising radiation, toxic chemicals, chemical or biological weapons...."

He has not appreciated Dr. Bill Rea's concept of "Total Body Load" of interacting stressors as having a synergistic causal effect.

I am attaching my notes on this topic:  http://www.grn.es/electropolucio/Smith230503.doc

Regards to all,

Cyril Smith.

Question from Sheila

Dear Klaus,

I have a question. I'm finishing a book on tics/Tourette syndrome. I am wondering if you can find out if any of the people on your e-mail list have tics, and if so whether they have found that cell phones or microwaves trigger their tics. If so, I would like to be in touch with them so we could include something on this in the book (no need to use their name.)

We also have a survey on our site www.Latitudes.org (at the top of page) that allows for someone with tics to record environmental factors that make their tics worse.

Thank you for any help you might be able to be!
Best wishes to you, Sheila

Recent actions of Representative Lois Capps to protect Central Coast residents
------------------------------------------------------------
I am extremely pleased at the recent actions of Representative Lois Capps to protect Central Coast residents from long term affects of military pollution. Recently she has:

1) Opposed the war in Iraq, knowing the long term detrimental impact that weapons testing has had on our water, soil, agricultural crops, coastal wildlife, and health of our children and babies here on the Central Coast.

2) Voiced her opposition to the Bush Administration and Republican Party's attempts to weaken the Clean Air Act, the Endangered Species Act and Marine Mammal Protection Act, the Clean Water Act and superfund by creating an exemption for the military from the above environmental standards (Readiness and Range Preservation Initiative).

3) Introduced legislation to curb perchlorate poisoning in the Colorado River and vegetable fields of California. The Preventing Perchlorate Pollution Act would accelerate the establishment of an EPA standard for perchlorate, and require the enhanced access to community "right to know" information about perchlorate contamination from Vandenberg and Edwards AFBs' missile launches, and weapons testing from other military sources on the Central Coast.

Representative Capps speaks for millions of Californians concerned about military toxics in our state. My cap's off to Capps!

Subject: [friendsoftheirishenvironment] this virus warning isn't a hoax
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Dermot advises theres a nasty virus being sent from various addresses, including  support@microsoft.com (a rather clever hack). The attachment is .pi, .pif or .uuf and the subject is usually re: movie, re: my profile

Anyway it’s a bad one.

You should all go to www.grisoft.com and download avg, its free you just have to register. Before installing you’ll have to remove any other anti-virus software but this is the best anti-virus software. And update every 3 days
