'Not In Your Backyard'
Connecticut residents find out that the hazards of suburban living include intrusive cell towers.
"Life in the suburbs comes with its share of worrisome surprises... Usually, however, those surprises do not include the neighbor's deciding to put up a cellphone tower that is about 10 stories tall." One resident calls it the "nightmare on Burr Street" and the nightmare includes ethics complaints and a member of the local planning commission.
