Re: [Goanet] cell tower radiation hazards - coverage in Goa

Dear Prof. Kumar,

Can you please refer me to any peer-reviewed research paper(s) in a reputed 
scientific journal that substantiate(s) your claims about effects of low power 
microwave radiation, and the physical and biological mechanisms involved. As a 
neuroscientist, I have scoured through the medical and biological literature 
and consulted with a world-renowned neuroscientist who served on a U.S. 
National Institutes of Health committee to examine this question in the 1990s. 
Neither he, nor the committee, nor I have found anything that unequivocally 
supports your claims.

Cheers,

Santosh

  Dear Gerard Delaney,
 
 I do not know who are you and why you wrote the followings, which
 were forwarded to me by Stephen Dias. Atleast you should try to find out
 the truth and then make statements. You do not realize that how many
 people, birds, animals, plants, trees, etc. are getting affected by
 high cell tower radiation.
 
 There are ample examples in the history that whenever anyone or group
 of people raise voice against strong industry lobby, whose business
 may get affected due to proper awareness, they decline, for example,
 cigarette industry.
 
 Cell operators and their associates came out with a book mobile phones..
 myths and reality. Please see my comments on the book in the attached 
 file.
 
 Please see Pages 3 to 5 about sun (light) versus microwave radiation.
 Also, see my disclosure on Page 9. This was released to the press in the 
 last week of Jan. 2014.
 
 If you have any questions, please send an email.
 
 With regards.

  Thanks Gerard for sharing this information. It is important to counter
  these bogus scares that crop up from time to time by educating people
  about basic scientific concepts. Underlying these scares there
  invariably is some commercial scam or MLM-type fraud being
  perpetrated.?
 
  Cheers,
 
  Santosh

  Last year, a small group of Saliganvkars created awareness in the
  Lourdes Convent school hall about the alleged dangers of the radiation
  from Mobile towers by showing a PP presentation of the so called expert
  Prof. Girish Kumar. The same presentation was used again for a much
  bigger group of villagers in Gladstone Ribeiro Sa's house and as a
  result the construction of the mobile tower by Dmello Telepower Pvt Ltd
  in Saligao was forced to stop.
  When 6 of the leaders had met in my (Gerard Delaney's) house after 
 the
  Lourdes convent program, I had clearly explained to them how this Prof.
  Girish Kumar was using his position to create fear in the minds of the
  public about the radiation and thereby helping his daughter's 
 business
  of selling meters to measure radiation and shields for it. I had even
  explained that the average frequency of light is one million times
  greater than that of microwave radiation. Hence according to the well
  established laws of Physics, light has energy greater than that of
  microwave radiation by one million. Thus it is ridiculous to be afraid
  of microwave radiation and not of visible light radiation which is one
  million times stronger! *However, what transcribed during the meeting,
  was never released to the general public by the leaders of the 
 agitation.*
  Now a special panel of 13 members set up by the DoT in keeping with the
  Allahabad High Court's orders, has exposed the misdeeds of the
  Professor? and affirmed that there is no danger to the health from the
  radiations emitted by mobile towers. Read about this at:

Dear Mr Stephan Dias
I was quite surprised by your comment funny uneducated guys referring to
Mr Gerard Delaney and Mr Santosh Herlekar.

I do not know you personally. What I do know, is that neither do you know
the above two gentlemen personally, nor did you take the trouble of finding
out about them before you made such a comment on a public forum.

From the mails subsequently sent by Mr Santosh, I gather that he is a
neuroscientist.
A simple Google search on him verified that he is a PHD in the same in a
leading Texas college.

You will not find much information about my father Gerard Delaney on the
net as he tends to maintain a low profile. Allow me to bring you up to
speed on the same.

My father is a former Gold medalist in Physics from IIT Powai. He joined
NIO briefly for a year before settling for a more fulfilling job in
teaching Physics in Goa. Just last year he retired from a 35 year active
service, 16 of them spent as the Principal of Shri Shantadurga HSS in
Bicholim, Goa. He has also to his credit co-authored a book on physics
which incidentally is being used as one of the textbooks being taught to
all HSS science students. He is still an active board member on the
association of physics teachers. His list of achievements are much more,
but I think you will agree with me that he is not as a funny uneducated
guy as you thought.

*An apology from you for these comments made in bad taste will be
appreciated.*

kind regards
Ashley
