About the blog 

   If you read the post Standing (which may have been identified backwards) then you know about an effect that's sometimes noticeable in certain locations.  The cause may be a little more complicated than originally thought.

   Several buildings at an apartment complex have AC magnetic fields being generated generated beneath them.  The magnetic field radiates up through the floor into the first level and can be measured even up to the second floor.

  Requests to the electric utility didn't produce any answers, but the right questions may not have been asked (not that this should excuse anything).

   It's possible the nearby power lines (being "near field" sources) are responsible for powering these magnetic field.:

   It's no different than wirelessly charging a phone.

   The transfer of power between the lines and a receiver (unsure what that is for now) is very efficient and means no one should be paying the bill that lives here.

   It still leaves the question of how it started occurring in the first place.  Would someone just be considered lucky or unlucky to pick from a list of available apartments and end up with a magnetic one?

   As far as an innocent passerby carrying a cell phone goes...

   Should you feel like you've been caught in a web, you shouldn't need to check for spiders.

   In this case the web is invisible to us.  For the real thing it's invisible to insects (mostly).

   Too many things are backwards.
