If there is such a limit, then the solution is simple : have an absorbing material close to the antenna that makes a shadow cone for this part of land. Then, take your time to make your case in court and if won, make the farmer pay for the additional work on the cone.
I have some mild allergies myself, and I can measure how incredibly important the psychological factor is. While on holidays, it almost disappears. I would be happy to have something that would trigger a placebo effect on me. Being a skeptic, however, makes such a thing difficult !
I indeed looked a bit into acupuncture a while ago and it seems that studies consistently show that acupuncture has the same effect as a placebo. Specifically on allergies, I'll try to look again.
Would it be possible that all the four regular doctors you saw before the chiropractor were incompetent ? It seems to me that what chiropractors know and use is common medical knowledge, but yet stories like yours abound. Is there an incentive for doctors to sell drugs ? (rhetorical question) Maybe a regular doctor with no rights to propose medications would do as good a job as a chiropractor ?
Heh, this news is nothing. Do you know that this activity is what allegedly spawned the whole Somalian pirates thing ? It all started as a vigilante group against ships that where dumping radioactive wastes in fishing areas (fishermen losing hair and dying at 30 are a clue). Now the international community decided that no Somalian armed ship is going to be tolerated in their fishing area, but no disposition was taken to prevent the dumpings.
Yeah, we are very sorry about the president we got here. It is our turn to have a small Bush. In the case of the present law, it is not just incompetence. There is a very real opposition against internet as a news reporting device. There has been a take over of the government on many news outlets but news website are the last place where they do not manage to weight and pressure people into not speaking about things they want kept hidden. Some people begin to talk about "Sarkozy's jigsaw", where the great picture is a nation only informed through government-sanctionned mediums.
What a pigeon does is that it finds back its home.
So what you usually do is breed some pigeons in your dovecote and give some to the people who need to send you messages. Not a lot of training is required but you need a way to deliver a pigeon to the sender of the message.
My world divides cleanly between "management" and "non-management". Talking about choice, when you are looking from people from the first category, competence is not an option and niceness is scarce.
This is the problem with handicap : we tend to consider it like a single problem when in fact it can have many different cause. Sure, it won't help 100% of handicapped people, it can however help people with very low muscular strength, which is common amongst elderly.
It is worth it for almost-paralyzed people who are sick of being stuck into their wheelchairs. Most of the old people unable to walk are not paralyzed but to weak to stand. In US they pray, in Japan they pay. Guess who gets to walk again ?
Seriously, I could see me pay a lot of money to be able to walk in the latter years of my life.
And Switzerland does that : there a petition can bring a referendum able to veto a law. There is a similar process to patent a law as well. It could work anywhere. It has in Switzerland for 200 years.
Vote is not something you want to do unless it respects three points:
* Secret of vote
* Verifiability of counting
* Verifiability of peoples' identity
Unless we have a cryptographic system that allows this, it will be a big no for me.
So Linux vendor SHOULD be doing the same thing if their aim is to sell to the general public. This article should not be taken at a criticism against Microsoft but as an example of what Microsoft does well : selling its products.

My first tought was : and what charges will the woman and the hospital face for making this possible at all ?

Here is one of the study that do not examine allergies : http://www.acupuncturetoday.com/archives2002/apr/04needle.html

I read the article, and I stopped when it became clear that this information comes from Symantec. Your favorite over-paranoid, FUD-spreading company.

Been there, done that. There needs scream linux but the Powers That Be said it would be Windows.
I prefer Shuttleworth.
Laugh, but such ridiculous claims put a political price on decision-makers that didn't balance the praises they would get from geeks.
Also here in France, strong lobbying from mobile phone companies has been made to forbid anonymous wifi connection as a "security" measure.
Microsoft cleverly got mor /. coverage by calling the GPL a cancer. And by being one hell of a big software company.
I was 4 gigabyte on an USB key.

Now make the cyborg 30 meters high and call the cable "umbilical cable" and we can talk...

Seriously. EULA or not, this is invading the children privacies. There must be a law against this.
The people mentionned in this article do not sell software. They sell PCs with software pre-installed.
So Linux vendor SHOULD be doing the same thing if their aim is to sell to the general public. This article should not be taken at a criticism against Microsoft but as an example of what Microsoft does well : selling its products.
If anything it is Take Two who should receive money for the media panic that damaged their image.
The answer is "more every year"
