Beavers" Subject: Re: Cathy Bergman/EMR Alliance (fwd) Dear Roy: If it's true that Cathy Bergman needs to back off the public side of her activism for awhile, it's certainly more than understandable. When I think how worn down I am as a relatively johnny-come-lately, it's amazing that Cathy has managed to do so much in public and with the public for so long. I just wanted to drop a note offering a big thanks to Cathy. It is she who stands out as one of the people who kept this issue alive in the back of my mind, waiting to be called into life when PacBell came calling with their cellphone antennas almost one year ago to the day. (What a year it's been, too.) It was also Cathy who sprang to our aid out here when the University of California at San Francisco started jerking us around over a meeting room when we were setting up the Neil Cherry conference. The University suddenly wanted us to be sponsored by a non-profit and suddenly wanted a full history of that non-profit, the hoops to jump through kept expanding and expanding. Cathy offered The EMR Alliance as the sponsoring group without a second's hesitation. And when I feared an overly burdensome demand coming down on Cathy than expected with the University's ever-increasing demand for paperwork, it was Cathy who offered to write her own letter and send any damn thing they wanted...and she said, if that wasn't enough, then we'd know where they stood. Did I love that spirit of defiance or what? Cathy Bergman is the greatest!! Finally, in closing, I'd still love to get some more victory stories, even a few sentences would help me fill the one-pager that I'll send to other groups and to the press as the occasion arises. And don't forget, Dr. John Goldsmith at our public forum in San Francisco on August 23rd: THE END OF INNOCENCE: Cellphones, cellphone antennas, television transmission towers, digital wireless...and cancer.
