"In the critical light of morning I realize 
my statement made no sense.  Of course 
if the line is balanced that will reduce radiation."

I sometimes have that kind of morning, too.  :)  

"I guess twisting window line equalizes 
the wind resistance in all directions also."

That just might be.  Sounds plausible. 

"I use open wire so don't really
think about that as much."
Sometimes I don't think enough
- according to the xyl.
