  1. after watching the 'Wind Rush' documentary last night -
    http://www.cbc.ca/documentaries/doczone/video.html
    after a decade !!! I pushed my computer under my desk as far as wires allowed
    and angled it toward the wall. quite a reduction in the noise

    the documentary described health problems associated with wind turbines that
    a lot of people living near those giants are experiencing: migraine, sleep disorder,
    mood change, tinnitis etc. there's several sounds / noises etc the turbines produce
    that cause problems, and there's also frequencies below human hearing that are
    also detrimental to humans — same with computers ?

    google: computer noise health
    tinnitus - ringing etc sound in ear/s/head:
