I just looked at that and saw "centimeters" - obviously it's "meters". Well,
I hadn't had my pre-nap nap yet.

After a brief review of the literature ("more checking around") I suspect
that the major threat posed by Tetra probably derives from England's
earthquakes, which may topple those fragile towers onto unsuspecting
passers-by.

Regarding Expert Opinion... without much effort, I can find a platoon of
PhDs at the fringe of almost any science, willing to support almost any
argument (especially if the drinks are bought by those posing the
hypothesis). It's very difficult, however, to find credible experts who
think it's risky to live under or near electromagnetic radiation sources, or
use cellphones, or fail to don their tinfoil helmets. Interestingly, the
occasional surges in the media - though prompted by INcredible sources and
woefully unsubstantiated publications based upon terrible research design,
have created among some scientists an aura of nonspecific discomfort.

Repeat it loudly enough, often enough...
