Cell Phone Antiphony
"Wherever you go, there we are." – Cellular One slogan
Antiphony: A style of singing involving call and response. Since billions of people are called to the Cell Phones every day – and most will be chosen to lead the largest biological experiment ever undertaken on this planet – perhaps some answers to this culture of mass drug and denial are in order.

"For three years now Ingri and I traveled with a portable device called zapchecker. The zapchecker measurements of ambient levels of electromagnetic radiation. While dozens of trips throughout the western United States Since 2003, we would be driving along and notice that the zapchecker would suddenly 'Spike'.

After a few minutes to calm the zapchecker again until the monument wireless Then came the fork …
"On March 30, 2006, Ingri and I traveled from Spirit Lake to Seattle to attend what turned out to be an excellent 9 / 11 truth event on the campus of the University of Washington. What we have seen in this relation to measurable amounts of ambient electromagnetic radiation was shocking to us and occupied much of our conversation throughout our trip. Previous years when there are between mile measurable amounts of radiation being detected by our zapchecker, the reverse was true blow. Our zapchecker doping was approximately 90% of the time during our round trip 800 miles. It was clean only between rounds cell phone and now it is almost always in sight. In all cases, when we were in urban areas, the zapchecker was strongly doped – Even when the sensitivity of the device has been rejected. "-Amy Worthington

I am an award-winning Canadian author, reporter, photographer and filmmaker. A former Vancouver Sun “photog” – his feature writing and accompanying photographs subsequently appeared in more than 50 publications in eight countries, including translations into French, Dutch and Japanese.
My 30-minute video documentary Eco War won the 1991 US Environmental Film Festival award for “Best Documentary Short”. Excerpts from this “front-lines” chronicle of a three-man environmental emergency response team in Kuwait aired in an eight-part CBC Gulf War mini-series, and have been shown on CNN and NBC television, as well as Noam Chomsky’s feature film, “The Corporation”.
During and immediately after the Gulf War, I served five months in Bahrain, Saudi Arabia and Kuwait as a member of a three-man environmental emergency response team.
Winner of four Canadian feature-writing awards, I am the author of Days Of Deception: Ground Zero and Beyond; All Fall Down: The Politics of Terror and Mass Persuasion, Scorched Earth, Bringing The War Home, Alt Health, Stand Down, Dialing Our Cells: Cell Phone Health Hazards and the recently updated Chemtrails Confirmed.
A former pilot, ocean sailing master and frequent radio talk-show guest, I currently live and work in the Gulf Islands off Canada’s west coast.
