The citizen uprising against the Westhampton, N.Y., library board continued at its April 13 meeting with demands that the entire board resign. Four of the five directors did so last year.
The new board, led by Thomas Moore, husband of Westhampton Beach Mayor Maria Moore, infuriated citizens present by giving a financial report but refusing to discuss it.
Board members were accused of “lying” and there was “yelling” from both sides, according to the report by Erin McKinley in the April 21 Southampton Press. Board secretary Jennifer Mendelson “angrily” left the room and Moore called a recess in a move to calm things down.
The board has been resisting for more than a year citizen demands that it be elected rather than appointed. Switching to elected status would open the library to lawsuits, the board said, and it would have to follow civil service law if it gave up its private corporation status. Projects over a certain amount would have to be put out for bid and employees would have to be paid prevailing wages.
Such arguments fall on deaf ears of the citizens and deserve nothing but their contempt.
Ad in SH Press Urges Defeat of Budget
Their only recourse against stonewalling officials is the vote on the library budget that comes up May 17. An ad by the citizens in the May 5 SH Press urges defeat of the library’s $2.7 million budget. The library could still operate under the old budget but a message of disapproval would have been sent.
An elected board is a long term solution but two emergencies confront both the library and village boards that demand immediate action.

There is little difference between the two boards since Tom Moore and Maria Moore, husband and wife, head the library and village boards, respectively. This tie destroys the independence of the library board.
Both boards are suffering from political, moral and intellectual paralysis. They just can’t take meaningful action on pressing problems. Boards are notorious sinkholes of vacuity. Board members lose “half their I.Q.’s and all their guts,” board expert Nell Minow wrote long ago.
Kill Wi-Fi in Library, Schools, Now
Immediate shutting down of the Wi-Fi systems in the library and the schools of WHB is needed. The 54 precautions on the use of cellphones and computers compiled by Camilla Rees should be posted in the library and schools. She also describes the harmful radiation from thousands of cell towers, wireless utility meters and numerous other sources.
Wi-Fi has been removed from all the schools in Haifa, Israel’s third largest city.
The blind/deaf/dumb pose of officials worldwide with respect to the dangers of pulsed radiation mirror the attitude of Captain Stanley Lord of the S.S. Californian, who when told of rockets of distress being seen a short distance away (from the Titanic!) went to sleep. Also sleeping was the wireless operator.
More than 1,500 people drowned or froze to death in the icy waters. David Dyer has written The Midnight Watch that explores that historic snubbing.
Both boards need to throw off their intellectual stupor and attack the threat of millions of dollars in fines and legal costs that the East End Eruv Assn. is threatening if WHB does not sign permanent permission for the EEEA to erect Jewish religious symbols on 48 utility poles.
Bryan Tymann and Rob Rubio were elected WHB trustees last year on the promise that no such agreement would ever be signed. Permanent religious symbols on public property is a monstrous insult to the U.S. Constitution and a black eye for the Orthodox community that is pushing it
Southampton and Quogue have caved to threats of millions of dollars in fines and penalties and are allowing this desecration of public property. WHB officials should call the bluff of the EEEA and await the attempt to collect millions from the village.
WHB could fight that in court for years and the stink would be smelled worldwide. EEEA would be revealed as the Godzilla monster that it is.
Stubborn Public Officials Abound
Stubborn public officials in the U.K. resulted in the death June 11, 2015, of Jenny Fry, who hanged herself because of numerous illnesses caused by the Wi-Fi at her school.
Officials up and down the line refused to listen to the pleas of her mother Debra Fry. We have sent that story to Mayor Moore and the library board. As usual, all emails to either are unanswered and unacknowledged.
Mayor Moore is the “Mayor in hiding.” She has never had a press conference and blocks anyone from talking to her at village board meetings by limiting them to five minutes. She just sits there and listens. Moore failed to show up last summer at the Westhampton Country Club for the reception following the funeral of poplar restaurant operator Joe Milo, who died in a plane crash. She should have been there to offer the village’s condolences.
I saw her at the head of the St. Patrick’s Day parade this year but she was unidentified. People I was standing next to did not know who she was.
Flynn Asks Indictment of Canadian Officials
One of the strongest voices pleading for action is that of retired Canadian Armed Forces Captain Jerry Flynn who is calling for the criminal investigation of the inaction of Canadian officials on the pulsed radiation issue. Flynn spent 26 years in electronic warfare and related areas for the army. Wi-Fi was a weapon to be used against an enemy.
He has sent the following to Health Canada:
“Since May, 2015, the majority of the world's electromagnetic 'radiation' (EMR/EMF) scientists (currently 220 from 42 countries) have signed the "International EMF Scientists Appeal" calling on the United Nations and the World Health Organization to: 'Protect Mankind and Wildlife from the dangers of EMF and wireless technology.'
“In 2014, fifty-three scientists from 18 countries openly condemned Health Canada's radiation "Guidelines" (Safety Code 6) and called on Health Canada to: "intervene to help prevent an emerging health crisis"! Also in 2014, 55 Canadian doctors condemned SC- and called on Health Canada to: "protect Canadians from RF (radio frequency) exposure."
“Scientists say that the astonishing unchecked growth of microwave-emitting wireless radio products mirrors the frightening growth mankind is experiencing in disease epidemics in communities around the world! Such is the scourge of radio / microwave frequency radiation – at even the weakest levels - that no living person or thing can escape it! Yet Prime Minister Trudeau and his key 'ministers responsible' are oblivious to the dangers wireless technology poses to Canada's National Security and to the health, well-being and safety of every person in this country!
“This preposterously evil ‘crime against humanity’ could not happen were it not for two things: 1) provincial health officers have no education, qualifications or expertise in low-level, pulsed non-thermal RF radiation; and 2) North America's mainstream news media remain sinfully silent on what is happening here and in other countries, especially in Europe, where enlightened people and many governments are struggling to fight back against this same 'Perfect Storm.'
Only a Federal Criminal Investigation – utilizing only the best available independent, non-conflicted EMF scientists – can save Canada's national security, its people - and all future generations--from this invisible but pernicious radiation whichnow bathes us and all living things constantly."
Sincerely,
James G. ("Jerry") Flynn, Captain (Ret'd.)
