Editor’s note<\/em>: \u00a0The Town of Falmouth, MA, turned off its “Wind 1” turbine in November 2011, I believe, just before Thanksgiving. \u00a0Annie Hart Cool, a local realtor, and her husband Mark Cool, an air traffic controller, had suffered from Wind Turbine Syndrome for the years the turbine was operating. \u00a0Click here<\/a> to watch Nina Pierpont’s interview with Annie & Mark, two months before the turbine was shut down. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Now that it’s turned off, their WTS has—vanished.<\/span><\/p>\n

–Annie Hart Cool (Falmouth, MA), 12\/13\/11<\/p>\n

My husband and I live 1600 feet from Wind [Turbine] 1. \u00a0Our experience is\u00a0well documented. \u00a0I will say that these last few weeks without the whirling,\u00a0thumping and the vibrating have been phenomenal!<\/p>\n

We had Thanksgiving for\u00a0the first time in 2 years! \u00a0We put up a Christmas tree for the first time in 2\u00a0years! \u00a0We have entertained! \u00a0We have slept through the night! \u00a0We have not\u00a0slept in the basement! \u00a0We are rested! \u00a0Headaches are a thing of the past! \u00a0Dizziness, teeth grinding, vertigo—all somehow at bay!<\/p>\n

To the people who said, “You’ll get used to it?” or had me doubting\u00a0myself as “imagining” the health effects, and to those who said “So\u00a0it’s annoying! \u00a0Get over it!”—now, more than ever, I know there are<\/span> health\u00a0effects! \u00a0I am solid in my experience that life now (with the turbine off) is\u00a0remarkably different from the period of time when Wind 1 loomed loud over our house.<\/p>\n
