You'd think so, but you'd be wrong.
A man has excema and is experiencing mild allergies due to pollen. He goes into a Starbucks, which has wifi and many people on cell phones, which exacerbates his condition. He begins to itch, which causes panic. Panic causes chest pains.
Unlikely? Shit yes. Impossible? Nope.
Back to reality: there may be some people who are electro-sensitive. I suspect those in AZ aren't, though I readily admit I can't prove it. A point no one seems to be paying attention to, though, is that regardless of the cause these people are exhibiting symptoms of something. That fact should be addressed and, moreover, we should show some sympathy. Instead of trying to remove them from the planet, we should be more concerned about finding out what's really wrong and we should stop treating them like freaks. That was my original point.
