Wind Turbines Causing Seizures?

Check out this article! Apparently, Dr. Albert Aniel in Maine thinks that wind turbines can cause acoustic radiation, or "wind turbine syndrome. How crazy is that?

So this doctor, and others in the area, believe that the vibrations and sound from the wind turbines can cause seizures, nausea, sleeping disorders, mood disorders, and even heart attacks. I find this rather creepy, because we have wind turbines right outside Brookings and more of them are popping up all over South Dakota.

This whole thing may just be one big hoax, that I cannot be sure about. Maybe it is just some crazy doctor jumping to conclusions, but who knows? I did find this article on fark.com, so that makes me think that maybe it is all just a joke. Either way, I found it interesting and thought that maybe I would just rant a little about it. If it were true, it would be kind of tragic just because wind turbines are such a great source of energy.

I read a little of the report that Aniel has posted and it's kind of interesting. Try reading some of it, it's interesting!
