    Definitely reflected in prop prices in Melbourne at least.

    Sydney as well. I just had my property valued at $950k. If there weren't any power lines, it'd be worth around the $1.3M mark.
    C'mon solar proliferation!

    Hard to find this time of year. Maybe moths?

    These EMFs have certainly boosted my intelligence. I'll just zap myself again......zzzzttt....arhhh..that's better.

    And what about mobiles, are they safe all of a sudden?

    Of course mobiles are safe - people still hang them over kids beds don't they?

    Spot on!

    Radiated power from a conductor carrying a voltage is related by the inverse square rule, ie when you double the distance, the radiated energy is decreased down to a quarter etc. So think for a moment, 50or 110KV at a distance of 200m versus a 240V power cable running horizontally in the wall of your bedroom, right behind your bedhead where you head is for ~8hrs per day at a distance of 30cm..... it'd be pretty easy to guess which one would induce more energy/radiation into the persons head/body......?
