EMFs and Neurodegenerative Disorders

There continues to be talk and concern in the blogosphere about sitting on top of a massively powerful electric motor, and the resultant exposure to electromagnetic fields (EMFs). There is some weak epidemiological data in the literature for certain risks. An intriguing study from 1998 can be found here.
This study examined the incidence of Lou Gehrig’s Disease (ALS) among electric utility workers and found a significant increased likelihood of the disease. Since the cause of ALS remains unknown, we must give this some thought.

Perhaps some research must occur before this car goes mainstream, but as of now this data and concern remains speculative.
I have invited the senior author of this study, Dr. Loomis to give us his comment right here on gm-volt.com. Check back and look for it!
