Doesn't microwaves only affect water molecules?

@ Dan:
No, they also change the DNA of garlic because it shakes up the molecules
:P

And apparently megadoses of garlic will rot your brain.

Well, considering there are 2 Geostationary communications satellites (Anik F2 & F3) presumably irradating his garlic with microwaves,in the form of Satellite T.V, & thus (according to him) altering it's DNA structure, surely Mr Levine should be suing the Canadian Government, not Eastlink over this issue...?

I hate organic food anyway. It always tastes like dirt.

Be careful. You're getting too close to the truth. the reason so much modern tech uses microwaves is because it was funded by the vampire royal houses with the intent of fucking with garlic DNA so it no longer affects them, leaving the human population helpless.

Doesn't seem radical enough for a full blown conspiracy nut, mind you "fear, dread and panic" seems like a bit of an overreaction.
Out of interest, is there any evidence of microwave transmitters for broadband or mobiles doing anything to the DNA of nearby crops?

Just cover your garlic field with aluminum foil and everything will be fine.

Yay, yet another idiot who tries to push people around despite knowing nothing about science. Microwave towers aren't going to change his garlic crop.
I'm sure the rest of Victoria Harbour is pleased that they're still stuck with crappy dial-up thanks to idiots like this guy.

When your neighbors want to know why they can't steal software, look at cocks and watch stupid videos on the internet like the rest of the free world, I do hope EastLink gives them your phone number, Mr. Levine.

"'I think over a period of time it will change the DNA of the garlic because it shakes up the molecules,' he said Tuesday."
Um, you have no idea how that works, do you? Any time something heats up, the molecules "get shaken up," so to speak. Doesn't mean that any DNA will be affected.
Plus, RF radiation is not the same as nuclear radiation. And microwave towers aim their signals line-of-sight, meaning it points in one direction, usually to another microwave tower in the distance. It's unlikely any RF radiation is hitting the ground.
But leave it to one paranoid nutbag to ruin everyone else's ability to have high-speed internet.

From all the DNA we have been modifying since the Stone Age, now we have to care about garlic..........please, go get a little culture, ethnocentric dumbo.

There's microwaves everywhere, left over from the Big Bang. THERE'S NO ESCAPING!!!!!!

Hey cool, I live like a couple hundred miles away from there. I actually just got back from visiting a town not too far away from there.
You have to remember that other than Halifax the province of Nova Scotia is completely rural. This means that all the young people leave for better jobs and the remainder are fundies. This kind of ignorant bullshit really doesn't surprise me.

Little does he know his neighbours are all pissing on his crops at night because he's coming between them and high speed porn.
Oh wait, that's allowed under organics, isn't it.

@Dudely:
The young have been leaving for some time. My great-grandmother left Sydney Mines 100 years ago to become a domestic in Boston. It was that or stay and marry a coal miner or fisherman and live on herring and potatoes.

"because it shakes up the molecules,"
You know heat does that too, right? The sun? And possibly chemicals in your organic soil/fertilizer? You cannot live without molecules being "shaken up". Get over it.
I still don't understand why people are so worried about their food being a little different in the DNA.

Reason prevails. The judge threw out the injunction. The tower will go ahead.
