No Cell Phones, Wi-Fi Allowed In Small W.Va. Town « CBS PittsburghGREEN BANK, W.Va. (KDKA) — Would you believe there’s a place where no one can use a cell phone? Where Wi-Fi is not allowed? Where even finding a radio station can be a difficult task?There’s a town in West Virginia a few hours to south of Pittsburgh where all that is true.
Green Bank is a place where you can hear nature. Where you can hear yourself think. And that’s because some very important listening is going on.
That is out in the country, I think the main intersection in town does not even have a stop sign, (and doesn't need one.)!No Cell Phones, Wi-Fi Allowed In Small W.Va. Town « CBS Pittsburgh
The family tree's are straight lines and the banjo is played daily down at Dave's brother uncle cousins shop when his sister mom isn't too busy with your father uncle.

You see, Green Bank is home to the largest moveable radio telescope in the world.
“For people in the immediate area of the telescope, we really need the quiet,” said Jay Lockman from the National Radio Astronomy Observatory.
They’re trying to pick up very faint signals from outer space, so people in this small town can’t have some of today’s modern conveniences.

Actually it's just home to a very high tech piece of science, not some backwards community...

Made a joke.
Totally over your head.

I've seen far too much of the "I only read the headline and not the article." threads started here. Forgive me for my pessimism...

You already live in Arizona. You can't get much more backwards than that.
Funny coming from someone living in New Mexico.
touche'
New Mexico has a French Quarter?

That falls in the National Radio Quiet Zone, it isn't exactly something that people who lived there decided to do, it's a federal radio-free area, kept clear so the radio telescopes there can operate unhindered.
