I really haven't been following this but for this tower where do they say where it will cover?
If I'm correct T-mobile already has two tower sites in Greenwich. One on the post road across from Wendy's and the other near the train station?
I'm in Byram and it's a pain to stand near or go outside just to make a call.
Greenwich, CT, February 8, 2010 - On Monday, February 1, 2010, the Connecticut Attorney General Richard Blumenthal sent a letter to the Infectious Disease Society of America expressing "concern" over "improper voting procedures" used by the IDSA in the Lyme guidelines review voting process.
Sister Christian Says....
This has gone on long enough! The IDSA and CDC who have allowed this gross misconduct of civil duty should both be ripped from the pages of medicine and replaced with honorable doctors and scientists who know the research over the last 15 years cannot lie anymore. We the people demand action for everything that is known to be Lyme disease yet declared to be anything but Lyme Disease.
There should be no more votes allowed, they had their chance. Get them out of there. Start telling the people the tests are lousy unless conducted by a lyme specific lab and interpreted by a doctor who has now been told that with even one specific band that person may have Lyme.The literature is there and they have lied long enough.
Betty G says ....
"If the IDSA panel so deliberately violates the voting procedures, as expressly confirmed by the words of the IDSA's own internal memo, and refuses to comply with the Attorney General's request, there can be only one conclusion: The ability of the IDSA to ......"
you failed to SHOW CONCLUSION to above sentence; you left it up in the air??
I'm ashamed of the PANEL REVIEW TEAM for failing to take into consideraton ALL the ilads information and detailed book by PJ LANGHOFF, TE BAKER'S DOZEN, LUNATIC FRIDGE, JUNK SCIENCE, all about the idsa with over 1000+ links showing the idsa said 1 thing and did another!!
PJ dissected this info; it was proof beyond a doubt as well as all the other info. given to them.
Why we were NOT advised 1 panelist left in Aug. 09 for "family health issues' until late Dec. 09? Another coverup!
Panel knew this left the number EVEN numbers vs. ODD numbers on deciding votes.
As a 40 year chronic Lyme disease SURVIVOR; misdiagnosed for 34.5 years by 40-50 drs; I'm appauled by what has gone on for so long and all the "conflicts of interest" i've seen 1st hand these last 5.5 yrs. since my CORRECT diagnosis.
The only ones suffering are: WE chronic Lyme and co-infections patients with: bartonella, babsiosa, erlichia/anaplasma, RMSF/rocky mtn. spotted fever, & the endless other diseases ticks carry. UNACCEPTABLE! Pure hog wash.
