- Very few, as long as it's structurally sound. It's foolish to go on a
- "witch hunt" just because you don't like who's moving into the
- neighborhood. Communications towers are good for the local economy,
- since they bring in additional public-sector revenue and provide an
- additional business opportunity that wouldn't necessarily exist
- without it. Unless if someone's planning on pushing megawatts (no
- joke) of VHF or higher frequency RF power, there's not likely to be
- even a slight possibility of hazardous RFR exposure, as far as modern
- science can suggest. The "harmful non-ionizing radiation" story is an
- old sick joke used by immature idiots and ignorant fools to promote a
- hidden agenda.
