Here are a couple of links that might interest you.
The office of my dentist (the best in S.C. county imo ) has her entire office set up with Biopro Technology to protect the staff and patients from "electropollution".
Ahh, ya gotta love CA!

BIOPRO Technology - A New Generation of Wellness Solutions

Well I guess you live in the right city and state!

Unfortunately there is no credible evidence that the Qlink does anything at all - good or bad. They say it "tune up your biofield through a resonant effect that harmonizes your energy and helps you to navigate more smoothly through a stressful world." Wow. Not one real statement of what it does.

Spending money on garbage like this just perpetuates bad science. We should demand proof that the harm exists, and the device negates it.

Compared to obesity, smoking, and many other proven harmful things - electropollution is negligible.

yeah, i can't argue with you.
i don't care one way or the other.
i bought it years ago and i still like to wear it and if it doesn't hurt, no problem.

You are zapped thousands of times a day by magnetic fields,radio waves, microwaves,ultraviolet, cosmic radiation, background radiation not to mention the radon, carbon monoxide and the like.
I would not be too concerned about a power pole.
You could of course get one of these.

Do y'all have enough awareness of the human energy fields and the relation of those fields to other energetic phenomena to know what you're talking (laughing and scoffing) about?
I don't think so.
Science has gone only so far.
Aren't the cancer rates in many areas with those massive power lines quite a bit higher than the national average?
I don't know but i thought so.
So if there is a measurable effect (measurable by way of those higher cancer rates for example) from those giants, wouldn't it be possible that we are being effected (affected?) by the smaller power lines, the computers, the cell phones, etc., etc.?
I don't know.
I'm not that scientifically oriented.

Do you?

Most of your posts say "I don't know."

Yet there seems to be little if any evidence for your point of view. Except a list of articles by the maker of snake oil to harmonize energy fields around you.

I'm aware of my energy (chi) to a degree, yes.
I have no evidence of the kind you are speaking of, no.
But what i do have is the awareness of the limits of my knowledge which is a good thing as it helps me to not be arrogant.
When i don't know, i'm o.k. with not knowing.
I've been wearing that pendant for many years and bought it based on intuition but i have no proof that it works and no agenda to push it onto anyone else.
I just posed a question in my last post as a way to suggest that perhaps we are being negatively effected by "electropolution".
I said, "So if there is a measurable effect (measurable by way of those higher cancer rates for example) from those giants, wouldn't it be possible that we are being effected (affected?) by the smaller power lines, the computers, the cell phones, etc., etc.?."
Also, i believe that there is gathering evidence that cell phones do have an adverse effect but i haven't done any research so i can't attest to that either.
It does bother me that, if there is a chance that cell phones are harmful, so many young children who have brains that haven't even finished developing, are using them

Imagine if everything were based on feeling and intuition and not fact. Would you fly in a plane designed by a guy who "felt it should fly" despite no evidence of it's air worthiness?

These are not the huge lines on metal towers, but smaller power poles seen along roads. Are there health risks?
We had a pole in our back yard. Back in the 1950's that is how power arrived to your home. My parents old home was built in 1959. Now they place the power lines under ground. They are still there you just can't see them. 2 reasons for that, astetics and safety from falling lines and poles. They are not really concered with any magnetic fields that may be out to get you. You want to stay safe from the power lines? Don't touch them. They are full of smoke. I know for a fact. I saw a line burst and all this smoke came out. Best thing that you can do is leave them alone and make sure the smoke stays in the lines.

Some of you may want to hit up the local community college and sign up for classes. I hear that they teach classes on real science. They may even have classes on how electricity and magenetic fields work.
