Korean scientists have found that regions near AM radio-broadcasting towers
had 70 percent more leukemia deaths than those without.

The study, to be published in an upcoming issue of the International
Archives of Occupational and Environmental Health, also found that cancer
deaths were 29 percent higher near such transmitters.


Did anybody check for PCBs and (other) known chemical carcinogens in the
environment?


Good stuff! We used to have the power company crews pour used PCB oil
on our access roads. Really kept the dust down. Back then, nobody thought
anything that came in drums marked "SAFETY OIL" would turn out to be unsafe.

Probably all the lead contamination in the groundwater from our sweated-
connection radials didn't help either.
