Mobile mast fury leads to protest

Vodafone spokeswoman on masts: "We're talking about a power level of 150 watts, which is a bit like a powerful light bulb," she said.
"It's important to note: no mobile phone masts, no mobile phones."
I remember this as Repacholi's argument, he compared a microwave radiation source to a light bulb (I think he was talking about cell phones then) his copyrights of this argument are now moved to an industry spokeswoman, this time masts are a bit like powerful light bulbs so the distance from residents is a non-issue, see below.

Mobile mast fury leads to protest
A group of concerned mothers plan to take their protest over a mobile phone mast to their local council.
The "Mothers Against the Mast" group from the Mordon area of Swindon will present councillors with a 300- signature petition next Wednesday.
Spokeswoman Karen Kelly said: "My main issue is my son's health. This action is so inconsiderate when people's health can be affected."
The mast, which is not yet operational, appeared at Acres Way on 9 March.
Commenting on a separate protest earlier this month, a Vodafone spokeswoman said it did not matter whether the masts were 1m or 1,000m away from residents - it was "all about power levels".
"We're talking about a power level of 150 watts, which is a bit like a powerful light bulb," she said.
"It's important to note: no mobile phone masts, no mobile phones."
