something is not accurate:

I hear her voice, in the morning hour she calls me
The radio reminds me of my home far away
And drivin' down the road I get the feeling
That I should have been home yesterday, yesterday

Country roads, take me home
To the place I belong
West Virginia, Mountain Mama
Take me home, country roads

They could of course "just" have fixed land-line connections.

Enjoy the Silence? :)

40hz:
Yeah. It was really annoying for the "gummit security folks" as Pogo would call them. The NSA had to rent a room in a farmhouse and install an agent there since there was no way they could eavesdrop electronically.

^^ Hahaha! ;D

Vurbal:
Wikipedia states they have TV and several FM radio stations - sending with low power only: "Most broadcast transmitters in the Quiet Zone are forced to operate at reduced power and use highly directional antennas. This makes cable and satellite all but essential for acceptable television in much of the region."

Besides, maybe these children are more being protected...

Well it is an article from the Daily Fail. They've never let facts get in the way of their reporting before. No reason to start now.
