The intrepid Beach Mirror reporter Joanna Lavoie continues her work into the source of the Leslieville Hum. That’s the distant noise complained of by many residents of lower East York for periods of time ranging from a year to four years. Lavoie has enlisted Dr. Colin Novak of the University of Windsor’s Department of Mechanical, Automotive and Materials Engineering. It seems like a good choice as he and his graduate students were the detectives who found the infamous Zug Island Hum that bothered people in Windsor for years. Dr. Novak points logically enough to the Toronto Port Lands where he suspects there is a large underground transformer of some type. He has scientifically “measured” the hum and confirms that it is real. But where? Further telling of this story here.
