[MLB-WIRELESS] RE: SMH wireless article

[Jason Hecker]

It's fair enough.  With all the hoohar about mobile phones, TV and radio 
towers, powerlines and health effects, I would expect the plebs to be 
worried about wireless capers and rightly so.  But, they need to be 
educated about GSM/CDMA vs weak powered 802.11b.  I am sure some people 
will take convincing that 802.11b is safe even though it operates at the 
same frequencies as your microwave oven which _cooks food_.  Simply fobbing 
people off with "just don't worry about it, we know what we are doing" is 
patronising.  No wonder the hoi polloi regard scientists and engineers with 
suspicion.
