This is from a State Legislature that had a bill introduced several years ago to ban electromagnetic radiation. Someone in Portland reported having headaches from radio transmissions and experts came out of the woodwork. With mainstream reporting, mass hysteria about being radiated got to the point the bill was introduced. A person in Eugene reported they could hear transmissions from the Navys Skaggs Island station in California and could predict earthquakes by the intensity of the reception. Never mind that Skaggs Island was a receiver site. I laughed and thought the bill would be withdrawn, but it was scheduled for hearings.
I attended the hearing promising myself that I would just set in the back and stay quite. The experts were testifying and it started to look like the committee might pass it out. I reluctantly spoke up and said, Sunlight is electromagnetic radiation. I know we dont get a lot of that here in Oregon, but do you really want to ban it? The State Police two-way radio network is also electromagnetic radiation. Do you really want to ban that?" The bill was tabled and later withdrawn quietly.
OU just snagged Jonathan Stewart-- the best RB prospect in the country. They might be opposed to this idiotic bill.
And Cal lost to Texas Tech 45-31. The committee got that call right, apparently.
