with all of the comments CAN ANYONE COME WITH PROOF OF ANYONE BEING HURT
No, unless you put your hand on the RF out then yep you have a white
spot on your pinkie. Poor thing why did you touch it? THE ONLY FLY IN
THE OINTMENT IS THE MOTORCYCLE PIGS SITTING OUT WITH THE RADAR GUNS
SHOOTING INTO THE CROTCH.But they are dumb anyhow riding suicycles.
The EPA has already stated that they have not proven any problem with HV

Send the ENVIRO nuts back into the hills, no power,no tv, no pure safe
water, no ,etc,etc,etc,etc,
