Thanks Pam!  You hit the nail on the head there... "Smart" technology is another can of worms. The Green Living radio show talks about this danger and increasing wireless refugees as well... I'm one of them. I'm having to leave my IT job and home to avoid Wifi.  I'm headed for the Pacific Northwest soon to try to find an organic farm without Wifi where I can do an internship and learn to farm... Then I want to find or build a community where I can live peacefully and simply without all this wireless technology!  

All this makes me think.. Who needs contraception prevention for population control, when we have all this wireless technology that may eventually achieve the same goal!  Sigh...


Oh yes. We have to keep our sense of humor. When it feels like it's me against the world, it's the only thing I've got at times... :-) 


Tim

Hey Tim,
 
I was just thinking this morning as I was following up on what someone on here said about the SMART meters coming to NJ, I don't think I could possiby tolerate SMART meters because I am constantly burning now from the WIFI gadgets.  I was thinking...well I found out about the SMART meters, BPL, and the Bionic 4G LTE network that is also, not yet in NJ-- from my EHS comrades on eSens.  I learned about the WIFI refrigerators, and WIFI big screens from advertising.  I learned about the new "SMART" (WIFI) boards from walking into a 1st grade classroom  and getting my butt fried off.  These "boards" are like the size of 2 big screens.
 
I said to myself this morning,--"Damn, I wonder what the hell will be next?"  Then you show up with the announcement of the day.  SUPER WIFI!!!!!?  I wonder how much time we've got, when you add in all the "real radiation" floating out here.  I love your sense of humor...ya gotta have ONE!!!
 
So what do we do, roll over and fry? Hee-hee.
 
Pam

Hey folks,

I came across an article in the March 2012 Popular Science magazine, titled Stronger Signals... It discusses a new technology called Super Wifi that operates at lower frequency (from 470 to 698 megahertz). It's also been called Wifi on Steroids. Hmmm... It has longer wavelengths so that it can travel farther and penetrate walls. It's said Super Wifi can quadruple the standard range of Wifi, so that a standard four watt outdoor transmitter could extend a hotspot (I just love that term, as it's so literal), that extends 2-3 miles in a dense city, or up to 40 miles in an open plain.

The article says this is scheduled to hit the market in 2014, but I've read elsewhere that Houston and other locations have already been testing Super Wifi, and it may start rolling out next year...

I found the online version of the article here: http://www.popsci.com/technology/article/2012-02/wi-fi-could-become-widespread-cellular

It seems Super Wifi is going to take unused airwaves between TV channels, so on the surface it seems it might be a potentially safer Wifi since it's not using microwave frequencies. Unfortunately it will still use digital pulses, so this is a concern, especially for rural areas where there have been less concentrations of digital pulses. Soon anyone could setup a transmitter that could affect people 40-60 miles away, as it won't be licensed like cell towers.

I can't find a lot of discussion about the health implications on the web yet, but I did find this article from Dr. Havas:
http://www.magdahavas.com/white-spaces-super-wifi-and-potentially-dangerous/

If anyone has additional info on Super Wifi, please share...  Oh what a world we live in...

I'm rethinking an earlier plan to go live in a deep cave. He, he, he...

Tim
