Holding a microwave oven (transmitter) next to your head for hours per day may hurt you?
DUH!
Makes no difference. You will never get cellphones away from people no matter how dangerous they may be. Try taking one away from a woman. I dare you.
Next week another “scientific” study will refute this.
Funded by ATT&T, Verizon, Sprint, and T-Mobile.....................
Try taking one away from a woman who is also driving (badly)! I double dare you!
I was on 24/7 emergency call for the public water supply I ran. When I retired, I took my cell phone and my Rerdhawk 44 mag out into the woods. Felt really going blowing the phone to bits!
LOL. I had a friend throw his phone off his dock into the River while it was ringing.
I held off getting a cell phone for years, until my work forced me to carry one.
I used to joke that they would cause brain tumors, and in 40 years, the only ones left alive would be me and the homeless. Obviously the homeless would be unfit to govern themselves and would have to elect me their king :)
Homeless gots Obamaphones now...................
I’m not too worried. I doubt I use a cell phone for a whole hour most months.
The scary results aren’t so scary, anyway, once you think about what they really mean. The probability of any one person getting any one form of tumor is extremely small. Three to five times extremely small is still extremely small. You can be completely certain that you will die some day, but your cell phone will almost certainly have had nothing to do with it.
I guess we’re going to lose the younger generation to the ravages of thumb cancer then.
Like you, I can’t get through the day without at least one big juicy rationalization either.
I don’t have a cell phone, so I’m safe......................for now................
Safe from cell phones, maybe, but if you live long enough, you’re bound to die of something.
If you want to call being rational about facts and probabilities “rationalization”, fine. I do it a lot more than just once a day.
