I agree that high power lines have an affect on our cells. I did not know that was a proposed site for the new Center. I am a voluteer and would be concerned regarding my health and that of the others attending the Center. Thanks for bringing this to our attention.
Thank you!
Scary
Lauren Lefkowitz Greber…..things that make you go hmmmmmm????
Nice report
Definitely. ..

Glad you have pointed this out…truly…!
One of the newer developments near Kelly Johnson Parkway, .. homes being built with those power lines and transformers next to them.
I never understood how people think it’s ok to live near power lines?! They buzzzz hello?! Growing up in Maine we never lived near them. Everyone stayed clear
I’m glad he at least stated it was an unscientific study. The observations are anecdotal. I’ll bet all the individuals he encountered in hospice lived in homes with doors, but the doors did not necessarily cause the cancer. I’m really surprised there are no real scientific studies on exposure to high level exposure to these flux densities. I’m also not so naive as to believe all “scientific” studies are relevant. They usually support the view of the folks that paid for the study…
What DOORS cause cancer!!! I knew it. Unhinge them honey! I want to live.
Cancer is an epidemic and running rampid!
What rampids cause cancer????

I knew of 2 sisters who lived in a house under high power lines. The younger developed leukemia.
I knew two sisters too. Does that cause cancer?
Unsafe for anyone! This is the only community I have ever seen where homes are built so close to power lines.
I’ve always said this and have chosen apartments based on location for this reason. Can’t be good living under or near these structures.
Marcus Round
We will never live by power lines because of the possibility of serious health risks.
Melanie Imber-Baker i’m from Maine too and i noticed you’re friends with my cousin Jason Raye! Small world!!
That’s crazy! You live in scv?
Yeah in Circle J Ranch!
I sent you pm
When I was teaching in S.C., I had a student who had leukemia who lived under large power lines in Acton. Her mother was sure that had led to her disease and moved to C.C. The good news is, she was cured and now has a family of her own!!
Scientific studies abound, but they tend to be quite technical, and so far as I know are not conclusive in either direction. Most of the information I’ve seen that indicates biological activity is based on laboratory tests of cells, not complete organisms.
There is a lot of anecdotal information that is strongly anti EMF/EMR (ElectroMagnetic Fields/ElectroMagnetic Radiation), and some that comes from the Electric Power Industry supporting their point of view. Unfortunately, when those groups do reference scientific materials, they tend to cherry-pick to support their arguments.
It’s easy enough to find out for yourself; google EMF and/or EMR. YOu can start at this site if you like: http://www.ehso.com/ehshome/emf.htm
This is a good man know him personally
I have a friend that had brain cancer at the moment, one with intestinal cancer and one with breast cancer. All under the age of 30. This can’t just be random
