Beavers" <rbeavers@llion.org> To: emfguru@hotmail.com -------------------------------------------------- .......The two messages below are (I believe) typical examples of a GREAT AMOUNT of help that has been provided over this network thru the past three-plus years of EMF-L existence......There are MANY others (besides Marj and Bert) who have provided similar help, but Marj and Bert are rarely surpassed in their generosity, willingness and promptness to provide assistance!!! I have never met either one of them, but my impression is that they are certainly a couple of 'gals' with BIG HEARTS.........Also, they are both PROVEN sources of good, solid information about many aspects of the EMF quandary!!!!.....guru...... ---------- Forwarded message ---------- Date: Fri, 14 Aug 1998 09:51:23 -0400 From: Bdumpe@worldbank.org To: rbeavers@llion.org Subject: Request for help from Sweden: Update (fwd) Roy: Ditto on what Marjorie wrote. I faxed 7 pages to the Department of Interior in Sweden which included my comments and illustrations, plus the comments of Dr. Gregg Lotz of NIOSH that he sent me when I was helping people in Ohio combat microwave towers in schools. One illustration submitted was of a frightened little boy dwarfed in the shadow of a tower, its metal structure forming a structural silhouette across his chest and face. The tyke looking up at it seemed to be saying, "What will it do to me?" This illustration was published by the Valley newspaper in Ohio when I was helping Ann Shirreffs with the school tower tower. Also included to Sweden were illustrations from the FCC's Bulletin 65 which speaks to the health and safety guidelines. In addition, an illustration of what EMR is and is not accompanied the package which was also faxed to an allied scientist in Sweden who faxed me back saying it was provocative, soul searching, fascinating, etc. I could not get through to Leif, so I communicated with Per Segerback via e-mail who was kind enough to relay messages to Leif. Have heard nothing from Leif. Why am I telling you this? Because many people on this network request assistance, get it, and then forget who sent it and never say "thank you" or even acknowledging receipt thereof. Should this network not be, or should it be e plurubus unum -- one for all and all for one? If not then people should not be requesting assistance or complaining that their e-mails or petitions are not posted or ignored. It is only by knowing the effectiveness or ineffectiveness of our actions that we can provide proficient assistance. This is what made my year long interaction with Candice and Gary Brown and Shoshana Masory of FACTS so successful to the point where they are now stars in their own right. Public officials in Florida now request their input on tower issues. This respect did not come about overnight. Gary, Candice, Shoshana were in constant communication with me throughout the period when they were opposing towers and massaging their ordinance. Whatever they required I fetched and/or sent broadcast faxes that educate their public officials. It was a joint, concerted effort. The FACTS people were good teachable students, who spent as much personal time and money to get the job done as I. What is important these people, now my friends, know how to say thank you as a very few other people do. Do you know what one lady faxed me back after requesting information on the congressional bills, which I faxed her? "This is City Hall. Do not fax anything to this number that is more than 2 or 3 pages." I would like to meet the super-intelligent person who can relay the scope of the EMR problem, plus background and foreground information, in 2 or 3 pages! Do they really want to know? Call this a bad hair day! Bert ---------- Forwarded message ---------- Date: Thu, 13 Aug 1998 23:59:13 From: marjlundquist@usa.net To: rbeavers@llion.org Subject: Request for help from Sweden: Update Roy, a few days ago you posted a message from Leif Sodergren in Sweden, who asked for comments to be faxed to the Swedish government, after two electrosensitive residents of a town called Vaese or Vaase objected to the location of a mobile phone base transmitter tower near the center of town, not far from schools. I sent a 3-page commentary, and apparently others responded, too. Afterward I received a message from Leif thanking me for my "very good and supportive letter", and saying "I think that the many messages from abroad have perplexed the government. They seem to have postponed the decision . . ." I hope this means that the government is taking the matter seriously! -- Marjorie Archive provided courtesy of WaveGuide, http://www.wave-guide.org Reprinted with permission of Roy Beavers, http://www.feb.se/EMF-L/EMF-L.html
