I Don't Want a Big Brother

 I'm tired of blogging, but there isn't much to watch on free over-the-air TV.  What is interesting is the new face of college football.    You can't help but chuckle at UNC's loss.  Millions of dollars spent on a Superbowl winning NFL coach, but college ball is not the same as the NFL.  It's like trying to scrape the icing off the cake without ever having baked the cake.  College football isn't professional football.  It is a sport or extracurricular activity at an institution of higher learning.  I guess players are going to learn about multi million dollar professional contracts.  Their names and likenesses should not be exploited, but I disagree with paying them.  Yes, they induce millions of university dollars in contributions for glorified tailgating, but sports should not change the system.  The college and university systems are in disorder just like America.  Methodist University, once Methodist College, cut its entire music faculty this year.  Most of the music students were on scholarships and being paid to get a degree.  The department was producing no revenue.  The salaries of the music professors were a drain on their finances, and they needed money to pay the new medical school faculty.  Difficult decisions must be made.  Partner with Cape Fear Valley, start a medical school, fire the music faculty, and hire new doctors to teach.  The field of music never was a big earner of revenue.  Like many of the humanities, we recognize its worth, value, and benefit to humanity and subsidize it from other areas.  Methodist since its inception has had a music department.  I know a handful of pianists who earned degrees from there, and the education was substantial.  The community benefited from the music department.  Now there is a void, a cultural void, and the community has lost a limb.  Who are the Charlotte 49er's?  You mean UNC-Charlotte football team.  Who beat UNC this past week?  Are they even in the ACC?  Shiny new helmets, spiffy uniforms, and college athletes feigning professional contracts.  What I watched today was skilled and entertaining football, but college ball is not the NFL.  So enough about college sports.  I want to write about microwaves.  I can get no one to recognize the dangers of airborne Radio Frequency energy.  Perhaps the original frequencies America has used for early radio and television are not harmful to humans.  The higher frequencies of the Electromagnetic Spectrum were reserved for the military and NASA.  Microwaves for consumer use remained in our kitchen ovens.  Bill Clinton had a revolutionary idea.  Why not ignore the stated dangers of these waves, use the Presidency to access these reserved frequencies, and auction them off to the highest bidder?  Let's create a cell phone market and convert the American economy to wireless.  We have spent almost four decades replacing the Bell telephone network with wireless clones.  There was nothing wrong with this wired network, other than it became a monopoly.  The government sued and broke it up and created the Baby Bells.  Long distance was expensive, but eventually modems were made that allowed computers to connect over these phone lines.  Those in businesses and academic environments were lucky to have a T3 line, the fastest internet connection.  In looking back at this progression I can see no substantial benefit of having created this cell phone industry.  The introduction of the smart phone has changed business, but everything done on a cell phone except except paying by tapping can be done on a PC in your home.  To this day this is what I use.  It is what I choose to use.  I don't want my freedom of mobility burdened by a thousand dollar, portable, miniature, wireless computer.  The majority of America feels differently.  America was a more efficient, more productive, more well adjusted populace of citizens without cell phones.  It forced us to be adults.  It has been known the higher frequencies of the Electromagnetic Spectrum are dangerous and can cause cancer.  America had made great strides fighting cancer, until this change to microwave wireless telecommunications.  We are in denial, and no one will say anything about these dangers.  The basic regulations governing the use of cell phone towers have been eliminated.  The more concerning use of this energy is with satellites, and who has become the major provider of civilian and military satellites for the United States.  In providing contracts to Space X for internet and American spy satellites, Elon Musk's friendship with Vladimir Putin comes into question.  They are friendly.  The man who owns the company that produces America's spy satellites for the Pentagon, has close ties to Vladimir Putin.  These satellites are a nemesis, because they are not using single microwave transmitters like older models.  They are using supercharged, phased array, directed beam antennas that are one thousand times more powerful than anything in the sky before.  Multiply this by the number of satellites current circling the Earth, and we have electromagnetic radiation like never before.  The brass at Space X said it was easy to attach weapons and surveillance to these unit.  These are non-lethal weapons that are responsible for the Havana Syndrome.  Whether these symptoms were the result of conscious surveillance or the intent, no one yet has acknowledged their source.  They do exist, and people have been rendered impaired.  What question can there be as to their source?  Because we can't see them, makes them the most effective nonlethal weapon in existence, more so than a biological pathogen.  Now we cannot escape them, because they are hiding clandestinely in outer space.  Star Wars has become a reality with or without exploding nukes.  I imagine it is addictive playing God, watching anyone in the world take a piss, or choosing to punish them for watching pornography on the computer.  All with the push of a button.  Considering Richard Nixon's List and a contingency of troops specializing in Unconventional Warfare, these satellites render them inconsequential.  They monitor our speech, our emotional responses, and our intent just like George Orwell predicted in "1984."  We don't know it yet, but Elon Musk is Big Brother.
