Noisy and Unsightly Wind Turbines

Dear Sir or Madam,
I am writing to place an objection against the erection of any kind of wind turbine in Sellindge.
These things are not only noisy and unsightly, but they are being investigated by scientists, as they produce something called "black noise".
Black noise is also called "silent noise".  It has a range of above 20kHz with frequencies too high to be sensed by the human ear, but the ranges are still capable of affecting the environment.
I found this out by researching the subject, following a programme on BBC TV which covered the efforts by people in the West Country who seemed to be suffering from the erection of these monstrosities.
I feel that there should be no more installation of this kind of turbine except out at sea, where maybe they will not have a detrimental effect.  Now that this has been brought to your attention, I am sure you would want to reconsider.
Kind regards,
Mavis Turton
