I get a little worried having a cellphone in my pocket all the time. That's the last place I'd want to have cancer.
Wonder if everytime someone calls or you get a text message, if there is any kind of radiation of anything coming from it?
Computers as well. |

Keep it in your shirt pocket. Men have a much lower rate of breast cancer.
(Not sure about the impact on the heart, though). |

Part of some attempted paid-off "cover-up", perhaps?
Might your TEN-URE depend on it?  |
And monkeys might fly out of your ass. So what? What is your specific claim here?

So, no ... now that you asked, i guess it wouldn't be much a stretch to conclude certain sociopathic elite criminals, sadistic slavemasters of a sorts, have long been busy developing, investing in & promoting deadly oppressive technologies  |
It would be entirely a stretch. Would you have any evidence to back this claim? |

Like I said to big bird, the radio waves cell phones depend on are too large. They don't have a hope of zapping your DNA to cause cancer. |

Mobile phones 'more dangerous than smoking'
| Quote: |
Mobile phones could kill far more people than smoking or asbestos, a study by an award-winning cancer expert has concluded. He says people should avoid using them wherever possible and that governments and the mobile phone industry must take "immediate steps" to reduce exposure to their radiation.
The study, by Dr Vini Khurana, is the most devastating indictment yet published of the health risks.
It draws on growing evidence � exclusively reported in the IoS in October � that using handsets for 10 years or more can double the risk of brain cancer. Cancers take at least a decade to develop, invalidating official safety assurances based on earlier studies which included few, if any, people who had used the phones for that long.
Earlier this year, the French government warned against the use of mobile phones, especially by children. Germany also advises its people to minimise handset use, and the European Environment Agency has called for exposures to be reduced.
Professor Khurana � a top neurosurgeon who has received 14 awards over the past 16 years, has published more than three dozen scientific papers � reviewed more than 100 studies on the effects of mobile phones. He has put the results on a brain surgery website, and a paper based on the research is currently being peer-reviewed for publication in a scientific journal.

I prefer to call from a public phone when I am out, and use my mobile phone mostly to recieve calls, or to make urgent or important calls when there is no payphone in sight. I'm going to think carefully about how my kids will be allowed to use the damned things, if at all.
I am not sure that mobile phones really are a health hazard, but my feeling has always been that they probably are (perhaps that's due to the strange feeling I've always had on the side of my head when I spoke for more than a few minutes on one of the damned things). But I keep an eye out for new research - kind of hoping that I'll be proved wrong. |

Might explain stupid people.
After study, I took my wireless out of my room. Don't use my cell phone unless absolutely necessary.
I'll let the rest of you be experimented on.

| The problem with cell phones is that the device is pressed right next to your brain. Start using headsets. |
