Too Much Industrial Radio (and they don't play Top 40)

Death comes in waves at nursing homes.  Many things manifest themselves as waves, and their study dates back to the ancient Greeks.  While primarily there are two major types of waves, longitudinal and transverse, the standing wave (i.e. radar) is more controversial.  If death comes in a wave at an assisted living facility, then there is a tangible source.  Many people dying at the same time or on the same wing or floor may not be coincidence.  In Fayetteville, the host community of Fort Liberty, the presence of waves is above normal.  It is not well known, and the recent political campaign of misinformation has gas lighted many harmful phenomenon into oblivion.  "What is a wave?  If we can't see it does it even exist?"  This is their popular train of thought, and it is ignorant.  Academia or our system of public education are the only institutions that adequately can refute such inane suppositions.  Let's attack them.  Let's under fund public education and question the credibility of our institutions of knowledge.  "What kind of wave could visit our geriatric care facilities?"  Let's start with a GE Dash 9 locomotive or C40-9W.  There are twenty discrete "radio" antennas on this particular diesel electric freight locomotive.  The world mostly will acknowledge radio waves, because at one time radio was a prolific cultural influence to American culture.  It was a source of revenue for the economy, and it bonded a disparate America into solidarity.  It was part of the American soul.  Humbly we should grieve the death of commercial and public radio at the behest of wireless internet.  The institution of radio and its influence on America was substantial and positive.  The same cannot be said for social media.

When the adverse effects of cross modulation of radio signals were attempting to be studied (including interacting with land-based commercial and public radio), the study could not be concluded.  The radio waves were said to be so strong they precluded the existence of any other radio signals with which to react.  In effect the Dash 9 was an ambulatory radio transmission tower.  The Dash 9 is a freight LOCOMOTIVE.  Why does it need such an array of elaborate radio transmitting capability?  That is a good question.  

 A Boeing commercial jetliner is a similar situation, but I will not take the time to document its radio capabilities.  I will suffice to say that the weather radar has been upgraded with a digitally-scanned phased array antenna in its radome.  It is so powerful that it is protocol not to switch it on until the aircraft has taxied onto the runway.  It has been concluded it may cause danger to baggage handlers, air traffic handlers, and refuelers.  The range of this radar is 200 miles, and commercial aircraft routinely fly from 5-8 miles above the earth.  

 While aircraft and locomotives always have posed their own personal infringement to human health from the burning of fossil fuels, readily it is not known why and how they have become dangerous from the emission of radio frequency energy.  When these disparate frequencies of seeming unregulated radio waves interact, their basic effects on human health must be augmented.  A systematic denying of adequate funding for the appropriate regulatory agencies in Washington, DC has played a large role in the dissemination of harmful radiation upon the American public.
