1) Use synthetics. 
2) Tell the wife that low level electric fields raise the mother's
risk of leukemia 2X and raise the unborn's risk of brain tumor
4X. Source NBC news this morning. Also tell her to get off the
phone, increases risk of brain cancer. Ditto NBC news. Or stop
watching NBC news, should lower blood pressure at least 2X.
