During my reporting on the problem of wind-turbine noise, I have interviewed a number of homeowners who have abandoned their homes due to the noise. One of those people: Wisconsin resident Dave Enz. After talking with him on the phone, he sent me the following statement. I edited only for punctuation. I have added some follow up questions at the bottom of his statement. — Robert Bryce

58 Yr Old Non smoker needs room in Shelburne, Dundalk only to sleep at night because Wind Turbines Causing Major Illness, must be able to have Cable TV or Satellite, References available, Do not need any other facilities except access to bathroom, no laundry needed, no sharing of home or apt needed, will pay Cash. Cannot be near Turbines obviously, I currently live in Corbetton. Only need bed and side table and lamp but could supply that myself if necessary.
This could be a nice extra income for senior or other quiet person. Must be quiet home or area, not on noisy highway. Please reply to ad.
