NS> Best, NS> Nina Nina, no offense, but I find that statement a little hard to swallow. I personally know a gentleman who has stood in the direct path (unintentionally) of a very high powered transmitter. It was a cold winter day when this happened, and when he stepped into the beam, he said it felt like a nice, warm, summer day. This was a long time ago. Just for the record, his name is Dr. John Krause. It has been a few years since I have spoken to him, but I believe he is still alive and well, and over 90 years old. His accomplishments in life are astounding. Nonetheless, for those who believe that 50 or 60 Hz EMR is toxic, I have some very bad news for you. The only way to escape it is to leave the planet. The energy travels around the globe practically lossless (I believe a loss of less than 0.1 dB per pass around the earth). We are literally bathed in a sea of electromagnetic waves. The electrical lines that eneter your house make a great "longwire" antenna, and bring in RF of many, many frequencies. Admittedly, I only purchase monitors wich meet the most stringent radiation specifications. But, my concern is mainly the "s-rays" (soft x-rays) that they emit. Even going with a LCD monitor will not eliminate electromagnetic radiation. And, while a Faraday cage would protect the user from the electrical component, there is no way to shield yourself from the low-frequency magnetic component. Even Faraday cages made of Mu metal have failed. While the fan motor may emit radiation, it is many, many times weaker than the fields generated by your house wiring. Also, I fail to see how a diode would offer any protection whatsoever. Just my proverbial $0.02! -- Best regards, Solar -- The silver-list is a moderated forum for discussion of colloidal silver.
