Re: Neutral Spike Re: [EVGRAY] Vehicle audio - Wikipedia

Body

I like you are against the up coming 5G technology which is about to 
unfold. Yes, we are just learning about the harmful effects caused by 
the proliferation of the microwave technology which nearly all wireless 
devices have migrated to these ultra high frequency bands.  Our getting 
a handle on the EMP phenomenon and understanding the effects is in the 
area of learning.  I am not advocating utilizing something which in the 
long run may be very harmful.   The Scientific Community is still 
scratching their heads on this area of research. It was as late as 2005 
when the UV & Soft X-Ray satellite was positioned that we began to learn 
how  EMP was generated from the sun.  This is relatively new in our 
world.  We just need to sort it all out and see if there is a practical 
application that will benefit all or none. Agreed. Norm
