Comment
In the 1950s the Radio Quite Zone was created to accommodate large-scale radio telescopes in Green Bank, West Virginia. For very different reasons, the world's leading scientists and "electromagnetic hypersensitives" need an environment free from electromagnetic radio waves. Together, with the locals who live a very rural hunting lifestyle, they form the community of this small valley in Pocahontas County.
