[Durham INC] Parents for Safe Technology call to action

[Ken Ray]

Hi,

I'd just like everyone receiving this not to know that I am one of the tens
of thousands of people who lobbied both Google and our local government to
bring Google Fiber to Raleigh/Durham. It is a great honor and opportunity
to be chosen as one of the first US localities to be chosen for this
infrastructure.

The Google Fiber Hut is a 10×30 foot structure with negligible
environmental impact (compare: most tractor trailers are 13x50 or greater).
The benefit to the citizenry in gaining 1,000 megabits per second internet
speed is completely worth the investment of these minuscule portions of
parkland (Eno River State Park is a 4,200 acres). At least, it is to me and
my family, friends, business associates, church members and children, and
especially those impoverished neighbors of ours who will get free internet
access.

I voted for Tom Wheeler, and I am glad he is working to bring the world
standard of internet connectivity to my home, as I urged him to do in my
name, as my representative.

I hope all recipients of this note will note that there is no scholarly
article or study from any reputable American university supporting the
concept that wireless technology is dangerous (choose the search engine of
your preference and enter the term "wireless technology is dangerous
.edu").

I have a lot of faith in - and hope for - my children and their generation.
Any leg up they can get is an opportunity I want them to have. Access to
Google Fiber will be - for them - just as uplifting as being one of the
first cities to have electricity back in the 1890's.

I hope this information gives you pause,

Ken Ray
