If I hear back I'll let you know, and vice-versa. My initial thought is that perhaps if they wrapped the line around an iron core, we could develop a market for an electric bike conversion kit that would enable us to cruise along like the electric slot cars of the 1970's... But seriously, has anyone ever ridden that trail in Racine County that runs on an abandoned trolley line beneath enormous high-voltage transmission towers? It feels as though one's hair is about to stand on end, and not just from the excitement of being in the self-proclaimed Kringle Capitol of the Universe...
I suspect Mark's recent response re: comparisons to in-home EMR is pretty accurate. It shouldn't make your radio buzz like traveling under overhead lines does. ________________ > Hello, Jeff, > > Thank you for your inquiry about the underground transmission line project > affecting the Southwest Bike Path.
