Roy     -     Your response to B. D. Davis was an excellent one; however, 
since moving the head of the bed to another wall is usually easy and 
relatively painless (esthetically, that is), I would recommend doing just 
that.  

In situations like this, without significant/obvious health problems, I 
certainly agree "we shouldn't be alarmists" and I also question whether it 
would merit spending $200 or so for a gaussmeter to compare magnetic field 
readings between the sleeping area and the kitchen.  

I, of course, am not an expert (personal/family EMR-related health problems 
only) but I have to say that it always gets me stirred up when the power 
companies put out brochures (they used to be available on request) that they, 
"industry" use to attempt to belittle the seriousness of the issues.  

One does not typically stand for hours and hours, days on end, in front of an 
electric oven.  The same would apply to any electrical appliance, microwave, 
etc.  

Since much of the research does seem to focus on the pineal gland and 
melatonin, and we absolutely know for certain that moving the beds of our two 
grandsons brought about remarkable improvement,  "moving the head of the bed" 
should be a public service announcement that is based on common sense no 
matter what the gaussmeter shows.   

There are also the issues of possible transients, etc. that can't be measured 
with a gaussmeter.    

Take care   -    Joanne Mueller
