Cvijovic"To: rbeavers@llion.org Subject: evidence Dear Mr. Beavers, it has been about half a year already since I have received the following list... Might be I should have shared that with you before... It is assembled by one of the leading bioelectromagnetic scientists. Some of the papers are very convincing! They indicate the effects that could occur near to a cell phone tower, or even far from a TV tower... (By the way, I am mostly concerned with phone towers, and I would appreciate any correspondence regarding their effects, including the anecdotal evidence.) Best regards, Drasko Cvijovic PECINA@EUnet.yu LOW INTENSITY EFFECTS (within the levels of cell site exposure, <200 ft): (1) Salford et al.
