<DIV>Dopis z Cape Cod<BR>~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~<BR>Vladimír Stwora
(18.2.2007)<BR>Rubrika: Přišlo emailem<BR><BR><BR><BR>Přišel mi email.
Pisatelka, paní Jílková se pokusila navázat kontakt<BR>s hnutím proti radaru v
Cape Cod a obdržela od tamních fyziků celkem<BR>zajímavý material. O tomto
radaru jsem psal nedávno v článku Co<BR>zabíjí mladé lidi v úžině Cape Cod?.
Ačkoliv máme tady ve<BR>Zvědavci zvyk, že články jsou v češtině, tentokrát
činím<BR>výjimku a ponechávám celou korespondenci v angličtině.
Prosím,<BR>všimněte si také příloh na konci článku. Jsou sice trošku
obecné,<BR>ale pamatujme: Jsou to střípky do mozaiky. Čím více budeme o
tom<BR>vědět, tím nesnadněji nás budou opíjet rohlíkem.
<BR><BR>Dobrý den pane Stwora, <BR><BR>zasílám Vám ještě nějaké podklady, toto
mi přišlo od US fyziků<BR>... je tam kontakt na paní Sharon Judge, která vede
hnutí proti radaru<BR>v CAPE COD, psala jsem jí email, ale neodepsala. Tak
nevím, jestli to<BR>není spojením .... <BR><BR>Dopis paní Evy Jílkové
odeslaný na adresu <A href="">bpcurry@worldnet.att.net</A> <BR><BR>Hello,
my name is Iva Jilkova, I am from Prague, Czech republic. USA are<BR>now
planning to build huge anti-missile radar station, just next to my<BR>hometown
(60km from Prague, on the highest hill in our region). Most<BR>people in our
country do not agree, but politicians are well pre-paid and<BR>try to force the
negotiations FOR the Radar. Besides we will be the first<BR>target in futre US
wars (possibly with Russia and China), I am worried<BR>about the health risks of
having such a big microwave next to us. Please<BR>do you have any studies about
the influence of such radars? We could use<BR>it for the information of peoples,
municipalities etc. Thank you. Iva <BR><BR>Odpověď <BR><BR>Dear Iva,
<BR><BR>There have been and, I think, are still continuing studies about
the<BR>impact of the "Pave Paws" radar system installed on Cape Cod on
the<BR>Massachusetts coast. <BR><BR>Someone who could give you more
information about those studies is Sharon <BR>Judge. She is a housewife
and mother whose family live in the area<BR>affected by this
installation. The cancer rate has risen significantly<BR>since the
Pave Paws radar began operation in her area. Her
contact<BR>information is stated below, as of 1998. I don't know
whether her<BR>address, phone number, and Email address have changed or
not since that<BR>time. Richard Judge is a Selectman for the town, which
means that he is<BR>an elected member of the town government.
<BR><BR>JUDGE, Sharon<BR> P.O. Box 150<BR> Sandwich MA
02563<BR> Phone: (508) 833-0532<BR> Email: <A
href="">judges@capecod.net</A> <BR><BR>Sharon and her husband, Richard,
are leading the challenge to the PAVE <BR>PAWS Radar installation at Otis Air
Force Base in Sandwich. They are also<BR> working for responsible
wireless facility siting policy in their town. <BR>They have a wealth of
experience dealing with military and state <BR>bureaucracy in their efforts to
educate their community. <BR><BR>A medical researcher in the Air Force and
a professor at the University of<BR> Vermont have raised substantial
objections to the Air Force's reassurances<BR>to the surrounding
communities that the radar is safe and will be<BR>carefully monitored for
any health hazards. Part of the researchers'<BR>objections are based
on the fact that this radar produces very fast<BR>pulses that interact
with living tissue in a different and more drastic<BR>way than other
microwave pulses. <BR><BR>One of the researchers is Dr. Kurt Ougstun at
the University of Vermont. <BR>The other researcher is Dr. Richard
Albanese of the Air Force Research<BR>Lab. Dr. Ougstun and his Air
Force colleague have written several<BR>papers, both jointly and
separately, about how fast electromagnetic<BR>pulses interact with
biological material. Below is an abstract of a<BR>review by Dr.
Robert Adair of Yale University of the study that I<BR>mentioned. He
usually doesn't accept the notion that electromagnetic<BR>pulses could be
harmful, unless they deposit enough energy to cause<BR>biological
heating. I don't have his paper, but here is its abstract.

<BR><BR>Environmental objections to the PAVE PAWS radar system: a
scientific<BR>review. Adair RK. <BR><BR>Department of Physics,
Yale University, New Haven, Connecticut 06520-8121.<BR> <BR><BR>As part of
our continental defense system, the United States Air Force
has<BR> operated a radar system, known generally by the label PAVE PAWS,
off of<BR>Cape Cod, MA since 1978. Some populated areas in the vicinity of
the<BR>system are subject to a low level of background radiofrequency
radiation<BR>from the system, and local citizens' groups have expressed concern
that<BR>this radiofrequency radiation may affect their health. These
concerns<BR>have been fueled by presentations and letters by Dr. R. A.
Albanese, an<BR>applied mathematician at the Air Force Research
Laboratory, who has<BR>proposed standards by which that PAVE PAWS
radiofrequency radiation which<BR>is incident on populations should be
judged. I discuss those standards<BR>that are sufficiently well defined to
be subject to analysis and show<BR>that they are not based on sound
quantitative reasoning. <BR><BR>PMID: 12492377 [PubMed -
indexed for MEDLINE] <BR><BR>Personally, I don't put much stock in the
arrogant Dr. Adair's opinion,<BR>but this is the only thing I have been
able to find about the Pave Paws<BR>radar study review. Perhaps you
can get more complete information from<BR>Sharon Judge. I hope this
information is useful to you and I will try to<BR>find Dr. Ougstun's
papers to send you. Good luck in your opposition to<BR>these
powerful radars. <BR><BR>Regards, Bill <BR><BR>Bill P.

<BR><BR>Iva, <BR><BR>I found a list of some of Dr. Oughstun's publications
that are pertinent<BR>to the problem of how the short. fast. and very powerful
radar pulses<BR>propagate in various media. There is one joint publication
with Dr.<BR>Albanese in this list. I don't have any of these papers, but
you should<BR>consider whether you can get them from a scientific or medical
library at<BR>a university in Prague. <BR><BR>1: Oughstun KE, Albanese RA.

<BR><BR>Pokud by někdo chtěl převzít štafetu od paní Jílkové a pokračovat<BR>v
další korespondenci, je to vítáno. (Neměli bychom nechávat všechno<BR>na slabé
ženě :-) ) Jak vidíte z korespondence, američtí vědci<BR>nekoušou a jsou poměrně
přátelští a ochotní vyjít vstříc.<BR>Alespoň někteří na tamních univerzitách.
Podle mého názoru by bylo<BR>ale nejlepší navázat spojení přímo s paní Judge
Sharon, která vede<BR>hnutí proti radarům na Cape Cod. Emaily i další kontakty
jsou v<BR>článku uvedeny. <BR><BR>Přílohy
