I just can't find any info on this. I think it might have something to do with taking the heboglobins out of our blood.

The notion that electric power lines can cause cancer arose in 1979 with a single flawed epidemiogical study that created a stir. Subsequent epidemiologic and animal studies have failed to find a consistent and significant effect. No plausible mechanism linking power lines and cancer has been found. In recent years, the verdict from large-scale scientific studies has been conclusively negative, and scientific and medical societies have issued official statements that power lines are not a significant health risk. In short, there is nothing to worry about.

You can't find anything because there is no danger. If there was a significant magnetic field, you could wind a coils and power your house from it. The biggest danger is living closer than the distance between two poles. If a significant wind came through (e.g. tornado) a live wire could snap and could hit the gound.
