Jed, We have a huge and looming problem with autism in this country and in all developing countries. 1/55 kids in the US are born on the spectrum and 1/38 in South Korea. This is brain damage for life
I am starting to believe it is our Doppler/military radars pumping up the vacuum component in our atmosphere, which I think is weakly ionizing and penetrating. So.
