Indeed. Incidentally whilst perusing the net tonight, I found this site (beow)which may or may not be of use to anyone. http://www.inspect-ny.com/emf/emfproc.htm I'm actually an open minded person, but we are being nothing but blinkered if we don't consider all possibilities are we not?

For the princely sum of £20 upwards you can buy(from the net) a gadget called an EMF meter(electromagnetic fields meter) which measures EMF fields given off from things; theres lots of pages on the net that will tell you about possible health concerns of high readings etc. (I'm talking from everything with electricity in it, not necessarily mobile phones). There are lots of pages on the net about the possible side effect of such things, including overhead power lines and the frequency of leukaemia in people living near these power sources. Its an interesting comment though about us all sleeping right next to power cables running down gunwales and its one I had not considered!. Thank you for bringing this up.

Yep, you are correct. My Uncle was a signwriter and he also told us the same thing about varnishing the sides. Good tip Phil.

It must have been bad for the people watching on. They have to live with what they witnessed.
