You gotta remember these are the same people who claim the Santa Fe Hum is 
driving them crazy. If fact, maybe if a bunch of legal limit AM'ers were to 
surround them as Bob suggests, and modulate the rigs with 20 Hz. at 125% 
modulation they would have a REAL hum to ACTUALLY hear.

WiFi Suit: Arthur Firstenberg Sues Neighbor For
Using Electronics 

Thu Jan 14, 5:58 pm ET 
A Santa Fe man who alleges he suffers from
"electromagnetic allergies" is suing his neighbor
because she refuses to turn off her gadgets, he
claims.

According to the Santa
  Fe Reporter, Arthur Firstenberg,
the plaintiff, has been sleeping at friends' homes
or in his car to avoid the electromagnetic waves
created by his neighbor Raphaela Monribot's cell
phone, wireless network, computer, compact
fluorescent lightbulbs and dimmer switches. 

Firstenberg claims he suffers from Electromagnetic
Sensitivity, or EMS, which induces "nausea,
vertigo, diarrhea, ringing in the ears, severe
headaches and body aches, crippling joint pains,
insomnia, impaired vision, impaired muscular
control," as well as other potentially
life-threatening ailments.

According to Firstenberg, he first started
experiencing symptoms when he was in college in
the 1980s and has been a vocal opponent of
wireless systems being established in public
buildings, though he has met with little success.

When Firstenberg first hired Monribot to cook
meals for him in his home, Monribot had initially
made concessions by turning off her phone and
computer. However, when she moved in next door,
she refused to keep her phone, computer and
wireless network turned off when not in use. When
asked if she could use a landline instead of her
iPhone, Firstenberg says Monribot "flatly refused
without explanation." 

The battle against Wi-Fi isn't one Firstenberg is
fighting alone. 
He's part of a group of Santa Fe residents who are
pursuing

legal means to remove all Wi-Fi hotspots from
public locations because they claim the wireless
internet waves aggravate their "electromagnetic
allergies." To add merit to their case, they are
classifying their "allergy" or "sensitivity" as a
disability and are claiming the Americans with
Disabilities Act, which prohibits discrimination
based on disability.

[AMRadio] More on "Electromagnetic Allergies"

Santa Fe Residents Allege City's Wi-Fi Affecting Their "Electromagnetic 
Allergies"
January 12, 2010 2:44 p.m. EST
Topics: United States, Technology 

Ayinde O. Chase - AHN Editor
Santa Fe, NM, United States (AHN) - A small group of Santa Fe residents is 
trying to get all public Wi-Fi hotpsots in the city banned. They allege the 
city's Access Points (AP) irritated their "electromagnetic allergies."

In their legal effort to ban the signals, the group is using the Americans with 
Disabilities Act as a measure to have city lawmakers bow to their pressure. The 
case has now reached a new level with published reports stating that one of the 
individuals in the original case is suing his neighbors for refusing to turn 
off their cellphone and Wi-Fi hotspot.

Artuhur Firstenberg is claiming his neighbor's technology forced him to be 
homeless. He's unable to stay in a hotel or motel because they employ Wi-Fi 
connections so he's been forced to sleep in his car.

Health officials have repeatedly stated that there is no evidence to suggest 
Wi-Fi signals have any impact on the human body. Additionally, scientific 
studies have shown that people who claim to suffer from "electromagnetic 
sensitivity" are in fact suffering from psychosomatic disorders and are best 
treated by therapy or medication.
