Ironic

I think it’s ironic that there has been, and continues to be, such furor about magnetic fields generated by overhead power lines. Lawsuits, movement of houses, redesign of developments etc. due to the harmful effects that are generated by the magnetic fields.

Then, people buy magnets to put on their ankles, wrists and beds to generate a magnetic field to help them.

I’ve changed my mind – it’s not ironic. Ironic contains the word “iron” and that might leave me susceptible to the harmful effects of a magnetic field.
