[BC] TV tower kills birds

[cld@admin.umass.edu]

So- in terms of towers, based on the responses here, it would seem that there 
are occasional mass deaths of birds due to something regarding towers, but 
that this is a relatively unusual occurance and apparently particular to very 
specific geographical regions. This is how I read it. It doesn't seem like 
there is much to be done about the situation save making the guys more visible.
I'm not favoring a government study at this point. I'm still waiting for the 
Kinsey type report on glow worms. That should be "hot".

Have a nice weekend ladies and gentlemen.
