In These New Times

Dear Martina Kominiarek

Executive Director, Bucks County Public Libraries, Pennsylvania, USA:

I had the opportunity to visit two of the libraries in Bucks County on my recent visit there last month in March of 2010.

Unfortunately, after entering these libraries I quickly started to feel ill with nausea, brain fog, and pressure in my brain, among a number of other very unpleasant symptoms.

Fortunately (or unfortunately) for me I am aware of what is the cause behind these ill feelings: WiFi (aka Wireless Fidelity ) systems installed in your libraries — which pump out a continuous stream of digitally modulated microwave radiation — in order to allow people to access the Internet with their computers without any wires.

Now, I am sure that you and many others — without having considered the possible hazards that this technology poses — believe that this is the next best thing to sliced bread. However, regardless of its convenience, there is a darker side to this picture.

There is a rapidly increasing number of people worldwide who are aware that they are reacting adversely to electromagnetic radiation and they have been labeled as having electrosensitivity (ES) or electrohypersensitivity (EHS). Having said that, I strongly suspect that an even larger majority are experiencing symptoms without being aware of the actual cause. In the years since we have seen an increase in this technology, we have also seen a large increase in a number of illnesses and there is a growing body of scientific evidence (and despite the wireless industry’s disinformation campaign) connecting these to increasing exposures to electromagnetic radiation. Among these are Autism, ADD, ADHD, Chronic Fatigue Immune Dysfunction Syndrome, Insomnia, Depression, Diabetes, Multiple Sclerosis, Allergies, cancer, and the list goes on.

I did print out a number of articles documenting the effects of WiFi and even the actions in France where these systems have been disconnected and dismantled in many libraries and schools — and asked the librarian there to hand them to you. I do not know whether or not you have received these, but I am posting below the links to many of these articles in PDF format. Please do take the time to read them.

The following was on a program about WiFi on the BCC Panorama. Please do take the time to watch it:
