While searching for caches in and around town, one cannot help noticing the “disguised” cell phone towers that blend into the surrounding. When people started complaining about the unsightly towers popping up all over the Towns and Cities, the cellular companies decided to develop a more environmental friendly tower.
Did you know that Cell phone towers being disguised as trees, also known as clean solution masts, is the brainchild (co-inventor) of South African telecommunications engineer Ivo Lazic, and is now used worldwide to hide these unsightly towers.

Telegraph Pole Mast - Luton Road, Wilstead, Bedfordshire, UK
N 52° 04.448 W 000° 26.994
30U E 674762 N 5772352
 This telegraph pole is definitely a mobile phone mast. It is common in the UK to disguise phone masts in this manner to blend them into the natural surroundings.
Location: Eastern England, United Kingdom
Upon inspection it is clear that the outer shell is plastic and no wood is apparent anywhere on it. The design is made like this to look like telegraph poles which are found in most villages, towns and locations across the UK. Telegraph poles carry telephone wires across the roads to properties everywhere. In Australia it is common to have telegraph poles constructed of Eucalyptus trees but in the UK they are Pine trees. This however is not a telegraph pole as it is a mobile phone mast disguised as one. Due to the lack of branches, twigs and foliage there can be no uncertainty that it is a tree as there are no known species of tree in the UK which look like this naturally. It is a very clever way to disguise a telephone mast and works most effectively.

Latest Info On The Microwave Vertical Array ELF Towers Being Erected Countrywide


Latest Info On The Microwave Vertical Array
ELF Towers Being Erected Countrywide
[Editor's Note: The info you are about to read was posted today (May 25, 2002) by Don Croft. The explanation for the ELF towers discussed below from the anonymous source makes perfect sense to me. The erection of these microwave towers around the world are part of a huge electronic deception operation known as Project Blue Beam. I had already learned from Sterwart Swerdlow that the kickoff date for the NWO takeover was supposed to have been year 2000, but the date was pushed up to 2003 due to unforseen obstacles impeding the agenda; gun control in America being one of them. It's worthwhile to note from the anonymous writer thatKevlar suits, lined with lead, can effectively block these ELF waves and prevent brain entrainment. Don Croft is convinced that the presence of DOR (Wilhelm Reich's acronym for Deadly Orgone energy) is necessary for these mind control towers to work. Don maintains that an orgone generating device called a Holy Handgrenade can transmute DOR into the more positive, life affirming form of orgone called "OR" by discoverer Wilhelm Reich. Don and his wife feel that removing the DOR component from the environment of an ELF tower, will mitigate the mind control function. He may be right. I can't say for sure, but it's worth your time to at least read about this easy-to-build orgone generator and acquaint yourself with the topic. I have seen the effectiveness of another orgone generating device, the Chembuster, to disperse and clear the sky of chemtrails. Many people have reported that the Chembuster can break up chemtrails and return the sky to a normal color of blue.
If you've been looking into the NWO takeover story for any amount of time, you may know by now that negatively orientated aliens, especially the negative Reptillians (see David Icke's The Biggest Secret), are the hidden controllers behind the Illuminated humans pushing for the NWO enslavement/genocide agenda. The Rule of Polarity or Duality requires an opposite force in place to offer an alternative choice and so it seems that friendly alien groups have been assisting certain energetic individuals in this harrowing period of our evolution to counter the negative agenda...Ken Adachi]

Are you curious about why those new towers are going up in all  populated areas? We've gathered a lot of information to indicate that the arrays are intended for mind control purposes. My wife and I found a way to neutralize them with a simple device called a Holy Handgrenade and have been doing so in recent months in various locations around the country. We place them in an inconspicuous location within effective range of the tower. We often bury them, base down with the pointed end up, to maximize its concealment. If you read the `chembuster' story, it includes instructions to build the Holy Handgrenades or "HHg."  I borrowed that term from the movie, Monty Python's Holy Grail, but I'm dead serious about this work.
There are people in 12 countries now making and deploying HHg's to neutralize these ELF towers, but this is just a start, of course. I figure that if one person in every populated area decides to do this, the whole tower network will be disabled in a short time. The effective range of the device described in Metatech's material is at least a quarter mile, so don't put it close enough where a team of searchers would find it. It's best if the person making and deploying his own HHg's doesn't discuss it with me or many others and keeps their activites to themselves. This will only succeed as a grassroots effort.
Here's some skinny on these towers from a friend of mine who has had access to some crucial inside information. My comments are in squared brackets( [ ] ) He's not fully informed, yet, of what our HHg's can do

The Purpose Behind The Neighborhood ELF Microwave Towers
Sent To Don Croft By an unnamed source
May 23, 2002
Think grid triangulation. Like the old grid paper, put a dot at each corner. expand the box outward. Each level of panel acts also dimensionally (not like 4th, but in 3d space dimensions, don), or to put it another way, pitch, yaw, up, down, right, left, x, y, intensity, duration,  frequency pulse, etc, those kind of dimensions.
The whole damn dumb show was supposed to go down in late 99, but they didn't get people's guns, that big final  obstacle to fascism. That's  when they hit upon these ELF towers. Tested them in Ventura, Africa, and the Sudan. They had GWEN operational in '92, but it did entire counties and would affect their own people, who have body suits they were (lined with lead-impregnated kevlar- which blocks elf and piggyback freqs.).
So they found out that the little towers, by the tens of thousands,  they could literally aim any energy like a gun to a single home, a given  range area, and so forth. Big places run by FEMA/NORAD run it all from computers. But they can also go remote, with the proper clearance and hookup.  They found out they didn't need to get the guns (that's why the push and schoolyard shootings stopped here; they no longer needed that scare op that worked so well in England, Australia, Germany, ....)
Now...how can you fire a gun or load it, if you are crawling on the ground begging for mercy? If you can imagine the worst abdominable pain there is, then you know how debiliating it is - you simply can't do anything, but lie on the ground and pray for relief  [Editor's Note: this assertion has been corroborated by Al Bielek, Stewart Swerdlow, Col. Fletcher Prouty, and even Major Ed Dames. During the 1991 Gulf War, hundreds of thousands of Iraqi troops spontaneously surrendered without even attempting to fight. It was this very ELF mind control technology which had been applied and rendered them impotent... Ken Adachi].
Then they can clean up entire streets, districts, small towns, enclaves, as needed. They don't need to pulse the whole country at once. Only as they do sweeps would they need to fire the machine up. And it is great for little revolts as they are sure to spring up. You can aim this grid like a net, down to the meter's distance. Got a neighborhood or backwoods community that isn't cow towing the NWO line? Simple, fire up the machine and down they go...as you walk through, kill the ringleaders, disarm the rest, then the lesson is taught to the survivors
These towers ARE very important to their plans this year. THIS IS NOT EVEN A QUESTION.
The French pioneered this technology in the late 70s from Bell Labs. They created a device for crowd control that looks like a big baseball stadium loudspeaker. It fits into the back of a van. Then they'd open the doors, pointing the van at the crowd. I've seen the device.
It operates on a 5 cycle bass wave, elf. Made everyone drop to their knees with stomach nausea. [Carol felt that frequency as we drove by one of the towers, which was operating above the usual 15% capacity, apparently, on a recent trip]
Your towers are the same thing, but with bi-phase polarity freqs that can induce hallucinations, nausea, herpes outbreaks (every organism has its own cellular freq) or whatever they want you to feel that day...horniness, anger, whatever.
Or stupefication...the walking dumb...look around, Don, and tell me what you SEE. Even though our spirit is full of fire and life, it has to, by nature of the 3D prison planet, function through the brain. YOU CAN'T EVADE  THAT FACT AND NO AMOUNT OF METAPHYSICS WHATEVER can change that. I can make you brilliant or stupid, just by inserting a chemical or frequency wave into your brain. The potential of Einstein is within us all - the brain is the GREAT BARRIER REEF to this.
NO AMOUNT OF METAPHYSICS WHATEVER can change that
[I believe that if we have a HHg in our energy field this won't be effective against us, personally]
I can prove it with an icepick under your left eye [lobotomy]. Ask Frances Farmer about that.
It's the brain we have to work for and with. if the instrument is defective (****** is an example you have to understand here) no amount of good spirit can affect a positive outcome UNTIL THE BRAIN, THE ETHERIC WEB, AND ALL THAT is fixed. This isn't dogma, this is metaphysical fact, taught to us no matter what degree we were or what the org was that trained us.
FACTOID
They need only enter your brain, and your good heart notwishtanding, YOU ARE theirs. I don't care how many lives of service you have or what your radiance factor is. Once they manipulate the brain on an ELF level,  you are f****d. And...that is your towers, so to say. It's the final trump card and they have it in full. Just stick around awhile...especially as winter approaches.
The Brainwashed, the Proud, the Few- the Cannon Fodder.
We can't make enough elmers [Holy Handgrenades] to stop it in most places. And according to my SIGHT, they plan on going around and collecting these little gifts [HHg's] when the time comes, by using privates in the military who are immune to hhgs and all that, cuz they are the brainwashed, the proud, the few, the cannon fodder.
[Since these towers have a range of up to a mile or more, now might be a good time to dowse locations farther away the tower base than right up against the tower fence, since the minimum range of a HHg is about a quarter mile (equivalent to 1,300 feet or the lenght of four football fields) .

Dirty Electricity and the Link to Cancer


Dirty Electricity and the Link to Cancer
Nexus Magazine Oct-Nov 2009

  • The Health Hazards of EMFs
  • EMFs and Cancer Clusters
  • The Perils of Dirty Electricity
  • Ongoing Risk Assessment


The Health Hazards of EMFsHistory has shown that the western world with its vested interests is slow to inform citizens about toxic agents and help protect them. The "dirty electricity" pandemic is no stranger to inaction, as were the asbestos, lead, acid rain, DDT, PCB and tobacco-smoking public health issues before it. The contention that artificially created electromagnetic fields (EMFs) which emanate from electricity generation can cause cancer has medical and legal experts commenting that EMFs will dwarf the tobacco-smoking issue and the asbestos crisis combined.
This health issue has a history replete with destroyed careers and tarnished reputations involving scientists who have sought to help the people, and with so-called experts who have colluded with the forces going against the precautionary principle of public health: first, do no harm.
In his assessment for the journal of the Royal Institute of Public Health in the UK, Dr Stephen J. Genuis reported that vested interests have been effective in delaying restrictive EMF legislation. He also noted that claims of environmental harm have been challenged by researchers who fail to disclose covert ties to industry, that economic interests exert undue influence on medical journals, and that some editors and journal staff have suppressed publication of scientific results that are adverse to the interests of industry.1
Professor Mark Ellwood, who was installed by the Australian federal government in the most elevated position in the nation as Director of the National Cancer Control Initiative to provide advice and make recommendations to the government and other key groups regarding cancer control, submitted expert witness reports for the power companies (and telecommunications companies) for court cases. Professor Andrew Wood, installed by the federal government in another position that serves to protect us—ARPANSA, the Australian Radiation Protection and Nuclear Safety Administration—also submits expert witness reports for the power industry for court cases. Professor Wood is currently chair of the ELF (extremely low frequency) Standard Working Group for the ARPANSA Radiation Health Committee.
It was not until 1979 that the western world took notice that these silent, invisible EMFs may be hazardous. Epidemiologist Dr Nancy Wertheimer and electrical engineer Ed Leeper conducted a study in Denver, Colorado, USA, and reported that children who were twice or three times as likely to have leukaemia tended to live in homes close to power lines and transformers. Their results, published in a scientific paper, showed an increased incidence of leukaemia, lymphomas and nervous system tumours in children.2
Their hotly debated research had an immediate effect: in response to public opposition to the construction of new high-voltage power lines, the electricity industry convened an expert panel of eminent and conservative medical scientists.
Included in this panel was Professor David Carpenter, from the Department of Public Health at New York University, and Dr David Savitz, one of America's most respected epidemiologists. Professor Carpenter's original scepticism was overturned when the Wertheimer and Leeper study, originally heavily criticised as flawed, was extended and improved. It confirmed a significantly increased risk of leukaemia.3
The reason why childhood leukaemia is studied is because the strongest evidence for a cancer is that the same cancer is significantly elevated in children.
In 2001, leading occupational medical epidemiologist Dr Sam Milham, MPH, and E. M. Ossiander, of the Washington State Department of Health, Olympia, researched the rise of electrification in the UK and USA and concluded that the childhood leukaemia peak of common acute lymphoblastic leukaemia was attributable to residential electrification: 75 per cent of all childhood acute lymphoplastic leukaemia and 60 per cent of all childhood leukaemia could be preventable.4In 2007, Professor Michael Kundi reported that up to 80 per cent of all cases of childhood leukaemia may be caused by exposure to these fields.5
It was reported as early as the 1960s (Court-Brown and Doll) that a new leukaemia-causing agent entered the UK and USA in the 1920s-1930s.6 Today it is quite widely accepted that these EMFs can cause childhood leukaemia.
There is some evidence that other childhood cancers may be related to EMF exposure, but not enough studies have been done.7
Wertheimer and Leeper were the first to see a magnetic field-breast cancer connection in their 1982 study of residential magnetic field exposures of adults.8 Even though this study looked at overall cancer risk in adults and found an increase in excess cancers of the nervous system, uterus and lymphoid tumours, "they discovered a nearly threefold increase among women younger than 55 who lived near power lines, indicating that magnetic field exposure had accelerated, development and growth of breast cancer".9
Breast tissue (along with foetal tissue) is the most sensitive tissue in the body and also the most sensitive to artificial (man-made) radiation, which is why any study into breast cancer has significant ramifications for all of us.
Breast cancer is a very-high-risk disease for women today. The contention that EMFs are a risk factor, let alone a causative factor, in female breast cancer has been heavily resisted. When individual cases of breast cancer or breast cancer clusters in women occur, various reproductive factors are also taken into account which can mask the role that EMFs play.
When, in 2001, three men in one small office developed breast cancer, Dr Sam Milham testified for the men in their 2003 court case, arguing that their cancers were caused, in part at least, by EMFs emanating from an electrical vault next to a basement office where the men worked.10 In 1997, Dr Thomas Erren, MPH, had noted that an association between ELF EMFs and breast cancer is supported in men.11
In 2002, even the Washington, DC, legal counsel for electricity utilities worldwide conceded in a privileged attorney-client communication that the stance of the power industry had to change.12 Studies are normally conducted on exposed and unexposed subjects, but with these EMFs we are all exposed, making a definitive cause hard to prove.
Also, it would be unethical to expose people to high measurements of these EMFs to prove the case. People don't welcome having to change convenient lifestyles, and, when doubt and confusion are introduced, the public is often quick to disregard the importance of data that makes changing ingrained habits a requirement.
There have been thousands of studies of EMFs, more so than with any other health issue. In 1997, Dr Erren commented that there are more epidemiological studies that link cancer to these fields than to environmental tobacco smoke.13 We are all concerned about the infiltration of chemicals into our wider and more personal environments, yet an analysis of 65 studies reported that the combined effects of toxic agents together with EMFs enhance the damage as compared to the toxic exposure alone.14
In 2007, the World Health Organization (WHO) stated that it is "reasonable and warranted" to lessen exposure to these ELF EMFs, "(provided that the health, social and economic benefits of electric power are not compromised"15—information that will take decades to be acted upon around the globe.
EMFs and Cancer Clusters
Fifty-three people in a small post office in Capalaba, Brisbane, Australia, with an old electricity substation next door, were diagnosed with serious and fatal diseases by 2000, although staff had started to take notice of the disease patterns in the early 1990s. Investigation of the electrical environment was incomplete, and there is still no resolution to this situation today.
When research is conducted into these disease clusters, often it's the case that measurements are taken after hours when the electrical environment has changed or that investigations are conducted after extensive remedial electrical work has been completed. Often the cancers are put down to "random chance" or "coincidence".
However, in the case of the breast cancer cluster involving 17 women working in a small area within the Australian Broadcasting Corporation (ABC) TV studios in Toowong, Brisbane, the cancers, which were diagnosed between 1995 and 2006, were thought to be workplace-related but no cause could be found. In early 2005, the women pinpointed the area which they thought was in question.
A private firm, EMC Technologies, took radio-frequency electromagnetic radiation measurements in April 2005 and concluded that all the work areas surveyed complied with the ARPANSA RPS3 standard,16 but it wasn't until 18 December 2006 that ARPANSA investigated the premises for ELF EMFs. Within three days, the ABC staff were no longer working on the premises.
The specific measurements of ELF EMFs in the area pinpointed by the staff were not mentioned in the ARPANSA report.17 Complete and precise measurements of ELF EMFs as well as transient EMFs should have been taken in the area.
Professor Bruce Armstrong led the ABC's own investigation into the cancer cluster in 2006, looking at other breast cancer risk factors such as reproductive, lifestyle and age factors.
When questioned on national television in August 2007 on this breast cancer cluster and the frustration of some of the women who felt that the proper investigations were not carried out before all the equipment was taken out, he stated: "It is very important to do the investigations properly, and indeed we did have a problem with the ABC with the fairly quick decision to remove people from the site.
It did mean that some of the measurements we wanted to do were not complete, and I do understand how the women feel in that respect; they don't feel that it's been done satisfactorily..."18
This breast cancer cluster came close to showing the world that EMFs can cause breast cancer. Even though further analysis was not conducted on male staff in this workplace, the possibility does exist that prostate and/or testicular cancers may have been present or may develop in the future.
If complete measurements of all aspects of the electrical environment had been taken, this could have been a win-win situation for all citizens of the world: the women could have known what caused their breast cancer and (along with every other woman and man) would have been able to ensure that their next working environment was safe; ABC TV would have been the perfect medium to spread the much-awaited information across the globe; and the ABC itself would have been commended on its groundbreaking achievement in helping millions of people (and scientists) throughout the world understand EMFs more fully. It also could have enabled the process of workplace reform to be instigated.
These cancer clusters serve to show us what is happening silently on a daily basis in everyone's lives. The adults and children of today have already been affected by these EMFs. Miscarriage, stillbirth, pre-term delivery, altered gender ratio and congenital abnormalities have been linked to maternal exposure.19  Testicular abnormalities, atypical sperm, chromosomal aberrations and offspring congenital defects have all been linked to paternal exposure.20 Fathers employed in industries with higher than average EMF exposure have also been noted to have offspring with higher rates of brain and spinal cord tumours.21
The Perils of Dirty ElectricityAny harmful EMFs can be classed as "dirty"—to put into common idiom the scientific and technical language that accompanies this public health issue— yet there is another facet of electricity, termed "dirty electricity", that is now seen as even more of a threat to our health than the electromagnetic fields mentioned above. It is not only the fields from power lines and substations that can be a concern; dirty electricity is running through virtually every building on the planet. An even more prevalent and insidious agent, this secretive and subtle underlying menace is in all probability one cause of the dramatic increase in many illnesses and cancers.
Dr Sam Milham stated in 2008: "Very recently, new research is suggesting that nearly all the human plagues which emerged in the twentieth century, like common acute lymphoblastic leukemia in children, female breast cancer, malignant melanoma and asthma, can be tied to some facet of our use of electricity.
There is an urgent need for governments and individuals to take steps to minimize community and personal EMF exposures."22
In 1994, the B Armstrong et al. study relating to dirty electricity was published.23 However, it was not until 2005, when Dr Sam Milham and electrical engineer Lloyd Morgan came out of retirement due to their concern over a cancer cluster, that information worthy of creating a paradigm shift finally began to emerge, with the results having serious implications for all of us.
(These brave researchers had honourable intentions and impressive credentials.24 Dr Sam Milham in 1982 was the first to link workers exposed to EMFs with higher rates of leukaemia. Lloyd Morgan, a brain tumour survivor and a director of the Central Brain Tumor Registry of the United States (CBTRUS), introduced the Benign Brain Tumor Registries Amendment Act into US Congress that became law in 2002. Along with breast cancer, leukaemia and diseases of the central nervous system, brain tumours are among the diseases that are more prominent in this health issue.)
The researchers were responding to alarm over a cluster of 18 cancers reported in 2003 among the 137 teachers at a middle school in California. Even though the school district administration had refused a number of requests for these men to assist in the evaluation of this cluster, which involved nearly three times more cancers than the average, one teacher invited these researchers to visit the school after hours to take measurements of the electrical environment, which they did at their own expense. When the researchers reported their findings to the Superintendent of Schools, Dr Milham was threatened with prosecution for "unlawful...trespass" and the teacher who had invited them into the school received a letter of reprimand. The teachers then filed a California OSHA (Occupational Safety Health Administration) complaint, which ultimately led to the progressive California Department of Health Services (CDHS) becoming involved. The CDHS measured the different facets of the electrical environment and provided Milham and Morgan with the data, which showed that dirty electricity—"transients", which are radio-frequencies riding along electrical wiring—was involved. Finally, this was a study that was conducted with the highest integrity, able to break through the red tape and politics that usually accompany the problem of harmful electrical environments. Of immense importance, Milham and Morgan commented that transients may be a universal carcinogen similar to ionising radiation,25 an already established cause of cancer.
The only two published studies relating to dirty electricity—Armstrong et al. 1994 study and the Milham-Morgan study—both show very positive increases in cancer risk with increasing cumulative exposure to transients.
What is of critical importance is that the cancer risks at the school in California were comparable to the smoking-lung cancer risk. Of no surprise, breast cancer cases were reported in this cluster along with several other cancers including colon cancers, uterine cancers and malignant melanomas. Artificially created EM radiation (EMR) is a determinant in the development of malignant melanoma, an increasingly prevalent cancer that was uncommon until around 50 years ago.26
In fact, research on EMFs has been conducted for over 50 years in Russia,27 and the newer research on dirty electricity has been carried out by Russian experts in conjunction with scientists and electrical engineers from the United States, Canada, Kazakhstan and the Ukraine.28 Kazakhstan has already swiftly mandated protection against dirty electricity in industrial situations,29 a model which should be implemented in all countries across the globe.
We are in the midst of an invisible and silent plague of pandemic proportions that has been woven into our everyday lives. Dirty electricity, is in virtually every building, whether it be our homes, schools, workplaces or hospitals. Energy-efficient appliances and equipment are amongst the culprits that create dirty electricity. Dr Magda Havas, Associate Professor of Environmental and Resource Studies at Trent University, Ganada, reports that many houses with solar panels have very high levels of dirty electricity.30 Wind turbines can also generate dirty electricity, which is then transferred along the grid.
If these EMFs released a visible substance on us, we would comprehend very quickly the attack on our body and that dirty electricity :is creating havoc with our immune systems. Even though we cannot see it and most of u .cannot feel it, dirty electricity is affecting all of us. Removing dirty electricity has seen cases of multiple sclerosis improve dramatically and even go into remission, and has also resulted in asthmatics using inhalers less often.31 Some diabetics are discovering that their insulin levels are being artificially raised in dirty electrical environments. In 2004, Dave Stetzer, president of Stetzer Electric, and Dr Havas presented to the WHO their research showing the difference between the blood sugar level in a dirty electrical environment (a measurement of 36) and one that was filtered (a measurement of nine).32
Autism is now seen as the fastest-growing developmental disability. Dr Havas reported that a recent pilot research study has shown higher rates of babies born with- autism where the mothers' sleeping locations had high levels of radio-frequency EMR.33
Children who have leukaemia or are in recovery have poorer survival rates if exposure to extremely low frequency EMF levels is high.34 It follows that all ill and recovering patients should be aware of their exposure to these fields.
Lichtenstein el al. concluded from their study of identical twins that environmental factors are the initiating event in the majority of cancers.35 On studying cancer trends in the 20th century, Hallberg and Johansson reported that there is a common environmental stress that accelerates several forms of cancer—colon cancer, lung cancer, breast cancer, bladder cancer and melanoma.36 From when electricity was first generated to the introduction of AM radio (1920s), radar (1940s), FM radio and TV (1950s), computers (1970s), mobile phones (1980s), and wireless technologies and compact fluorescent lighting (2000s), artificially created EMR is the most likely environmental stress.
Artificially created EMR may also be the underlying menace in the tobacco smoking and asbestos crises. Hallberg and Johansson reported that exposure to radiowaves (artificially created EMR) appears to be as big a factor in causing lung cancer as cigarette smoking, and that deaths due to asbestosis were not known until after the 1960s despite the fact that asbestos had been used as a building material since the end of the 19th century.37
We cannot afford to be unsuspecting recipients of this artificial electromagnetic radiation which has been newly introduced in such a short period of our history. Associate Professor Olle Johansson, of the Department of Neuroscience at the Karolinska Institute in Sweden, commented that today no one would consider having a radioactive wristwatch with glowing digits (as you could in the 1950s), having your children's shoes fitted in a strong X-ray machine (as you could in the 1940s), keeping radium in open trays on your desk (as scientists did in the 1930s) or X-raying each other at garden parties (as physicians did in the 1920s).38
These examples relate to ionising radiation; apart from nuclear fallout, we have a choice whether to expose ourselves to it or not.
Many different types of artificially created radiation have been woven into our daily lives. It is awareness that will bring understanding of the different types of radiation so we can make our own informed choices on what we are willing to be exposed to and what we must avoid. School teachers and principals alike must be educated on this most important health issue so that measures can be put into place to ensure that they and our children are not at risk in a dirty electrical environment, for dirty electricity has been found to be especially prevalent in environments with concentrated fluorescent lights and computers. Employers and employees alike must understand that their workplace must also be protected. People in their own homes must also protect themselves from modern equipment that also generates dirty electricity.
Finally, Dr Cedric Garland, the epidemiologist currently investigating the breast cancer cluster on the campus of the University of California, San Diego, is focusing on the possible role of EMFs, especially transients.39 Dr Garland advised that the female employees should be informed about tamoxifen research—that ELF EMFs have been found to partially block this drug's action in preventing breast cancer spreading or a recurrence of breast cancer—and recommended that those taking the drug should be transferred to a lower-current area if they so desired.
Transients cause cancer.   Just as we filter our water to remove contaminants so we have cleaner water, now we must filter our electricity to remove this contaminant so we have cleaner electricity. °°
