We used to live rather close to a transformer. Our next-door neighbor actually had it in front of their front yard. We had not been aware of the dangers of EMFs until the 5 year old son of our neighbor's developed a brain tumor and we started reading about the concerns that were being raised about EMF exposure. We should be taking every possible precaution with the use of technology that has red flags all over them.
