Gilligan,
by the way, I took your advice and walked away from the house I was
considering. When I did the formal inspection I brought along my gaussmeter.
The readings in the house were 15-20 milli-gauss and in the yard the
readings exceeded 100 milli-gauss. I know the jury is still out on this
issue, but I'd rather err on the side of caution.
Thanks,
Scout

You claim to know all about women and you are consistently WRONG.

You claim to be a sailor; you are a pedantic sailor, nothing more. A

Clean up your act Captain Curmudgeon!

Unlike you I don't make claims to be intelligent and I don't call

I don't think the fields affect most people. One thing I learned is to get a
house that is easy to resell. My old house was the greatest place on earth
until a few personal things changed and I had to move. Because of its unique
nature it took over one year to sell.
Power lines could make a house a tough sell and in a down market an
impossible sell unless severely discounted.
I hope you find a very nice, affordable place to enjoy.

One thing, your reading in the yard were larger than those in the house. Yet
the literature (and others) always say the fields should be higher in the
house. Did you test with any appliances on? It is a good thing you measured
the fields and don't always believe people when the say the fields in the
house are higher. The 20 mgauss field in the house could have came from the
powerlines, not the wiring of the house.

The house is about 100 feet from the wires. The readings in the yard were
taken between the house and the wires, and got progressively weaker as I
moved away from the wires. The house was (essentially) empty and no or very
little current was flowing in the house's circuits. I'm thinking the
readings inside the house were caused by the outdoor power lines.
When I walked under the wires my meter pegged (OL).
I agree that there may be little or no danger to me physically, but as
you've suggested, it could be problematic if I wanted to sell the house
later. I liked the place but figured it's just not worth it. Of course, it
also failed the radon and septic tests, and had coliform in the well water.

There's been a catfight of jealous rage over the good Capt. He is now being
