Parents of several Oak Park, Illinois children are suing the school district because they installed an 802.11b wireless network in their schools.

I’ll bet those parents have put their children’s heads next to a cordless phone without ever thinking of the irreparable damage they’re inflicting. The full text of the lawsuit is available online.
