There's no doubt that those jump to some conclusion and WANT to believe will find 100% correlation to their beliefs one way or the other because their "want" over powers scientific reason. There is no doubt that the human body responds to RF fields, that's how MRI's work.

John, Speaking of near-field radiation, do you have any idea, whether or not, there are problems in the immediate vicinity of multi-megavolt power lines... I recall reading about the adverse affects of those power lines (60 Hz) on the grass growing beneath the lines, and that cattle have exhibited odd behaviors when grazing near high voltage power lines... I do recall reading about this subject, but cannot recall whether there was any substance to the articles... The RF effects are still being studied and contested in the media...

[AMRadio] Electromagnetic allergies
Its true that there are physiological phenomena that indicate some effects from RF power exposure. In very controlled experiments with rabbits, mice and other creatures, exposure to significant doses of EM fields have caused things like audible clicks in hearing, and calcium ions crossing cell barriers. And these are not necessarily thermally caused, which is the normal effect of high RF (dielectric heating). It may be that there are magnetic field effects, somehow coupling into something in the body. It has been published that there are effects from powerline fields that have affected bee/honey production under right of ways. There is a lot of evidence that migrating birds have some sort of compass-like response to the geomagnetic (static) fields. These two are examples of weak-field effects, that have been observed and reported. The study of exposure to RF, power frequency, and magnetic fields,like chemical and radiation exposure studies, take years of rigorous experiments, to rule out other secondary effects from things like light, airborne material, natural radiation, personal bias in subjects, and on and on. There were studies in Sweden years ago that indicated that people in homes built near power lines or with particular wiring configurations were prone to increased risk of cancer. That landmark study excited a lot of people including realtors, hard-core environmentalists, and what I would call anti-technologists. It also made a big impact on the EM field research community. However, over time it was never repeatable and is no-longer considered valid except in the eyes of those who wanted that positive result. This is an example of a bias towards a particular answer. That said, however, the results of a study that identified 100% positive results from weak RF fields, is likely not real science that can be repeated. It has not been scrutinized or published in any refereed scientific journals or forums, like Nature, Science, AMA. I would be curious to see and read of such experiments. I heard recently that one state (Maine?) has a recommendation under development on exposure to cellphones in nearfield. In certain European countries, similar recommendations have been publicly made, focused on children and weaker adults. These are not scientific results, but are decisions based on prudent judgement, believing that there MAY BE effects which are not yet known. This is not a bad thing for society to do, considering the mistakes that have been made in past NOT making such decisions, asbestos, radium, cigarettes, various chemical toxins, and so on. So while I wouldn't completely rule out that there is some weak-field effect of RF exposure that we haven't discovered, it is so difficult to prove without all the underlying other environmental factors. Personally I tend to poo-poo the wackos and wierdos who claim that they get migraines and cannot sleep in the house next door to someone with a television or cellphone. And i do not attribute this to political conviction such as some here have used, but strictly based on what I know about the science and studies. I have been in high power RF work for my entire career (>30yrs) and have paid attention to these things, including reading and researching many of the reports and articles about RF exposure. I do believe that 800 MHz-1.9 GHz watt-level cellphones being held next to the brain, is not a smart thing for humans to do, and that we have to somehow change that or we may indeed find long term detrimental societal consequences. This is not a weak field effect, but a near field hazard. Arthur and Dr. Elke in Santa Fe are not what I consider to be examples of normality. They are on the fringe. We have so many people that come here from (guess where, Texas and California!), that we can now call it the land of fruit and nuts instead of the 'city different'.

Re: [AMRadio] More on "Electromagnetic Allergies"
Hi Steve... The cause of people hearing radio transmissions in their heads has been traced to old school tooth fillings that used an amalgam of metals (sometimes Mercury), that, with the saline (conductive) mixture of saliva, produced a non-linear detector, similar to the detector in a crystal set... or the germanium diode used in present day crystal sets. By the way, this only works to detect AM transmissions, not TV (vestigial sideband) or FM (Frequency Modulation)... New-School dental fillings do not contain materials, but are composed of fast-setting epoxies, resins, and other non-conductors... Personally, I've had the older style fillings replaced by the newer types... and I'm nearly 75 years old, so there were many old-style fillings in this old noggin... ...Larry, the Ancient Pelican (W1GOR) Keep thy airspeed up, less the earth come from below and smite thee.
