Health / EMF's     (Yes, hairdryers and microwaves put off high levels of EMF, so don't keep them on 24 hours a day next to you, OK?!
                                              Transmission lines fully loaded DO put off EMF 24 hours a day, and depending on proximity of your house from the line may be reason for concern)
