S4GRU Posted June 29, 2013 Share Posted June 29, 2013 It is amazing there are any wireless sites in Santa Fe. This kind of crap comes up every time a new site is proposed or approved in "The City Different": http://www.santafenewmexican.com/news/local_news/article_5d6d852e-37ac-560b-9c32-2d9be3bd5d79.html I love this quote: Two Santa Feans concerned about the potential health effects of cellphone towers say a new stealth array atop the Hotel Santa Fe has been giving them fits and causing high readings on a microwave detector since the first of the month. But an AT&T spokesman says the antennas haven’t been connected yet. Also, another classic: “Last night, it woke me up in the middle of the night with heart symptoms. … I can’t swear to what they’re doing, but I’m told that the middle of the night is when they download updates into everybody’s phones.” Then, perhaps, a little bit of reality: Told that AT&T says the array hasn’t been connected yet, Firstenberg initially said, “Maybe there’s a 1 percent chance that all this is coincidence and I’m sick for some other reason.” Brilliant! Perhaps she should just expect it from now on: “When you’re expecting it,” she said, “your body reacts to the expectations.” 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vandi Posted June 29, 2013 Share Posted June 29, 2013 Nice, I would give it a 10% chance that they are being effected by Coronal Mass Ejections Better be careful with the suggestions, they may get pissed off at the sun and put out a restraining order in for it to cease all Solar Flare activity and if it doesn't call for it's removal from the sky. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newyork4me Posted June 29, 2013 Share Posted June 29, 2013 Ugh. Isn't a lot of New Mexico kinda, uh, 'fringe' in their thinking? I swear there must have been a free bus route from Berkeley to New Mexico at some point... {and it would have had to have been non-stop, since Arizonans are much more normal} 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You should have been present at the Santa Fe City Council meeting when they discussed the approval of the WiMax Protection Site. Whoa!

koiulpoi Posted June 29, 2013 Share Posted June 29, 2013 Oh hey, it's that guy who sued his neighbor for using an iPhone. I honestly can't believe he's still getting any press attention at all. Edit: I do find this interesting, though: “The site is not active and is still under construction, so it is not currently providing service,” he wrote in an email this week. He said AT&T’s electric meter is running “because our equipment must be internally tested before it can be ‘turned on’ for customer traffic.” Sounds like it could actually be something similar to how Sprint occasionally has 4G LTE sites that are broadcasting LTE, but refuses to auth consumer devices, aka testing mode. Not to lend any credence to the claims of these, ah, people. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AJC1973 Posted June 30, 2013 Share Posted June 30, 2013 I had this conversation with a coworker who had gone to the mesa city council meeting to complain about the tower for the same stupid reasons...(this is a coworker that said that microwaving water was poison.. showed me a stupid video of some woman proving it by microwaviing water then feeding it to the plant and because the plant supposedly died it was because of the water...) well she went to the meeting then about two months later asked me when network vision was going to happen because service at her house was horrible... i said you mean the tower you complained about to the city council... the same tower that you worked up so many of your fellow freak a zoids that they denied the permit?? that tower... yea i dont need another cell phone tower in my neighborhood too many microwaves in the air... well you would have had it by now but your neighborhood isnt getting a tower like it needed for dropped calls... because your assenine crusade... whats that got to do with towers they can put the antennas up someplace else just not on a tower because they generate negative energy from deep inside the core of the earth.... i turned to my manager and said this one needsa piss test cause something aint right with her lol 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JeffDTD Posted July 7, 2013 Share Posted July 7, 2013 Perhaps these Santa Fe morons should call "Ghost Hunters".... could be a spook, could be their home is a big electromagnetic mess of old poor electric wiring. I wish I had neighbors like this...I'd walk outside with my tinfoil hat and point at the sky while I talked into an old wired phone .... cell tower radiation is just a symptom of their degree of nuttiness.... I'm betting you could convince them of darn near anything. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ab30494 Posted July 7, 2013 Share Posted July 7, 2013 i find it funny, when some people dont want a tower anywhere near them, but at the same time complain that they have crappy service. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob Newhart Posted July 8, 2013 Share Posted July 8, 2013 I do find this thread and story amusing, but.... it is no different from other peoples opinions or religions, people preach their view and expect people to believe it because they told them so, because of some funny reason that some guy once said on the way home walking his dog. Lots of money to be made there. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
