Dear Olle: My comments to Marjorie are self-explanatory.
Assuming the persons with cancer and the more serious health
problems are also the persons with electrical and/or phone items close
to beds, even tho they may in fact be affected on some level by close
proximity to masts/cellular antennae, high voltage powerlines, etc.,
the importance of having a BauBiologist conduct an in-home
investigation is obvious. See
www.createhealthyhomes.com
.
Statistics such as only 25% of persons near masts are developing
cancer (assume considerations are also being given to development of
other serious health problems such as M.S., Parkinsons, Alzheimers,
Type II Diabetes, Lou Gehrig's Disease and more) are alarming but as is
the case with living close to high voltage powerlines, the numbers are
comparitively low.
Serious consideration should be given by governments and industry
to fund homeowners in regard to mitigation such as documented
evaluations of bedroom exposures with help in regard to mitigation
(whether a tax credit or subsidy, etc.) for purposes of identifying
relevant circuits in order to allow for turning off circuits to
bedrooms at night (for those willing to do so) and also to
identify and correct wiring errors and/or grounding problems that may
be exacerbating effects of cellular antennae, wireless, high voltage
lines, etc.
As you know, "proper white blood count studies" regarding close
nighttime exposures, will then allow for evaluation of the more distant
exposures. Comparing "known effects" due to close exposures
and studying whether those same white blood cell changes occur as
result of the more distant exposures is the most straight-forward,
cost-effective, meaningful way to deal with reducing EMF/EMR-related
toxicity.
While awaiting further studies, homeowners need to
be informed of the above "prudent avoidance measures" as well as
those involving high frequencies on electrical wiring, the importance
of antioxidants in regard to adapting to our increasingly
unhealthy environment, the various recommendations re safer use of
cell phones and more. See
www.safewireless.net
.
You and others know this -- Repacholi and those who choose to
"keep the lid on" need to consider the calamitous nature of their work
that, while most likely truthful in some respects, is carefully
designed to minimize and deny rather than to help solve our "major
health crisis!!!" Best wishes -
Joanne

Marjorie: I have only reviewed a paragraph or two of
this but am thinking "what if he is right?" What if
the real harm IS due to metal bedsprings/metal headboards
and/or close proximity to electric meters or electric
appliances and some telephone items close to beds and/or homes
with transformers?
I have thought for a long time that persons reporting
"sensitivity" as opposed to "rare immune/cancer" or even Type II
Diabetes, M.S., Parkinsons, Alzheimers, etc. are perhaps correct in
associating their allergic-type sensitivities to fluorescent lights,
cellular antennae, powerlines, etc. but that the more damaging "actual diseases"
are more likely than not caused by items close to beds.
Eileen O'Connor reported recently that she had a metal headboard
on her bed. She relates her breast cancer, however, to a nearby
mast. In other words, while close proximity to antennae/masts may
be triggering allergic-type responses, a meaningful determination can
not be made unless one knows what and how many electric or phone items
are close to one's bed.
Glad to hear from you yesterday......I was starting to be
concerned and know the contact info you gave me last time is not good
(think friend lost use of his cell phone -- temporarily forgot his name
but tell him I say "hello....")...... Joanne
