Guest guest Posted November 5, 2010 Report Share Posted November 5, 2010 I got this link off the WI Green Party Group. I thought that it was very interesting. Please look at my comments below. Charlie Exeland, WI http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0984182705/counterpunchmaga Wind energy is a multi-billion dollar a year industry. It's billed as " clean, green, renewable. " In this engagingly written, peer-reviewed report by a s Hopkins University School of Medicine trained M.D. and Princeton (Population Biology) Ph.D., we discover wind energy's dirty little secret. Many people living within 2 km (1.25 miles) of these spinning giants get sick. So sick that they often abandon (as in, lock the door and leave) their homes. Nobody wants to buy their acoustically toxic homes. The " lucky ones " get quietly bought out by the wind developers, who steadfastly refuse to acknowledge that Wind Turbine Syndrome exists. (And yet the wind developers thoughtfully include a confidentiality clause in the sales agreement, forbidding their victim from discussing the matter further.) Dr. Nina Pierpont explains in simple, layman's terms how turbine infrasound and low frequency noise (ILFN) create the seemingly incongruous constellation of symptoms she has christened Wind Turbine Syndrome. (Incongruous only to the non-clinician who does not understand Mother Nature's organs of balance, motion, and position sense.) For the high-level clinician, Pierpont provides a parallel chapter written in sophisticated medical language and format, complete with voluminous, up-to-date clinical and scientific references. The core of the book is 66 pages of ingeniously laid out tables wherein the author presents her clinical Case Histories--the hard data. My first thought as a began to read this is that it was another form of electro polution due to the radio waves generated by the above ground generator at the center of the windmill and the underground transmission lines. This is the book that made me think about electropolution some years ago: http://www.amazon.com/Cross-Currents--Becker/dp/0874776090/ref=sr_1_1?ie=U\ TF8 & s=books & qid=1289016223 & sr=1-1 From Library Journal Becker explores the healing potential and adverse effects of electricity. Many alternative therapies attempt to tap the curative abilities of electromagnetism, and Becker thinks they are often effective modalities which do not have the dangerous side effects of chemotherapy, radiation, and other mainstream medical procedures. On the opposite side of the coin, he reviews the potential dangers of electromagnetic fields from such sources as common household appliances, power lines, and computers--risks exhaustively exposed in Brodeur's Currents of Death ( LJ 10/1/89). This accessible book is recommended for public libraries. - Judith Eannarino, Washington Univ. Lib., Washington, D.C. Copyright 1989 Business Information, Inc. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title. Product Description Dr. Becker tells of the emergence of electromagnetic medicine, which promises to unlock the secrets of healing, and the growth of electromagnetic pollution, which poses a clear environmental danger. He explains the effectiveness of alternative healing methods that use parts of the body's innate electrical healing systems, and warns that our bodies are being adversely affected by power lines, computers, microwaves and satellite dishes.
