- nupr, on 10/20/2008, -0/+14This should be an article by the Onion, this is a freaking joke. Damn hippies.
- adayahead, on 10/20/2008, -0/+12Allergies are serious business, even if this does seem a little over the top. You don't want to be eating peanuts on an airplane 18 inches from someone who is seriously allergic to them. On the other hand, coffeehouses and restaurants that are device free are a much better place to have a conversation. Banning devices to create a desired ambiance ought to be a business owner's prerogative.

- prompel, on 10/21/2008, -0/+6They're not "hippies", they're "nutters". There's a difference. Hippies are not dangerous.
- mphung, on 10/21/2008, -0/+5I'm allergic to hippies wrapped in tin foil.
- caseycoold, on 10/20/2008, -2/+5I thought this was squashed months ago when a test showed the people how were "allergic" to wireless signals could figure out which room had a wireless signal. Wtf is going on?
"brain retardation" is defiantly happening, just not how they think... - greenmason, on 10/21/2008, -0/+2Perfect Onion story!
- glenneroo, on 10/23/2008, -0/+1thank you sir! its articles like these that make us hippies (or wanna-be hippies at least) look bad ;)
- sbcea, on 10/21/2008, -0/+1So what happens when one of these hippies walks into a library? Or is the Santa Fe Library also banning WiFi? Or a school? Or just about any office building? I understand public safety issues, but come on. How rampant can these supposed electrical sensitivity allergies be to justify banning WiFi?
- greenmason, on 10/21/2008, -0/+1I hear hippies cook best when wrapped in tin foil.
