Numerous studies have been unable to correlate any problems with
reasonable proximity to power lines...

The part about pacemakers is correct... The part about "weak hearts" is
conjecture...

Wouldn't that be Samuel Clemens... aka Mark Twain... He also said,
"There is something fascinating about science. One gets such wholesale
