Beavers" Subject: Frogs, Canaries, and EMFs Dear Roy, In following up on the "Frogs as Indicators" stories that have been circulating lately, I checked out the news files of the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation [CBC]. When I searched for "frogs dying," the following story came up. It is not entirely new, but I feel it might be of interest to our EMFers. There was quite a comprehensive news item on yesterday's CBC Morningnews about mass dying of frogs and salamanders. I am trying to get details on that and will forward the transcript if relevant. *******************CBC 1997 News Release******************* News Search: Frog floats in "anti-gravity" chamber Posted 20:48:08 1997/04/11 A group of British and Dutch researchers say they’ve created an anti-gravity machine. They managed to float a frog in mid air, by creating a giant magnetic field that acts on the electrons in the frog's atoms. The team says it has also succeeded in levitating plants, grasshoppers and fish. The scientists say if they could get a magnet big enough, they could do the same thing with a human. Researcher Pater Main says the frog did not seem to suffer any ill effects and "went back to its fellow frogs looking perfectly happy." The levitation trick works because giant magnetic fields slightly distort the orbits of electrons in the frog's atoms. The resulting electric current generates a magnetic field in the opposite direction to that of the magnet, causing a repelling effect strong enough to lift the animal.
