Guys,

This article was a refreshing to see:

http://customwire.ap.org/dynamic/stories/B/BRITAIN_MOBILE_PHONES?SITE=OHCIN&SECTION=HOME

Concludes:  No known risk from cell phones (rf).

Of course, it doesn't address the risk increase from the idiots who
use them while driving in traffic.  I see an NC truck driver was
charged recently with murder for plowing into a car while trying to
retreive his dropped cell phone from the floor.

Among other things it concludes that the exposure to RF from the cell
phone towers is 1000 times less than from using the cell phone
itself.   The corollary to this is that if one is worried about RF
from cell phone towers, one should not use a cell phone.  Too logical,
I'm afraid to sway the detractors of towers from giving up their
beloved cell phones.

I wonder when they are going to come up with a cell phone combine
cochleal/throat mike implant for the truly addicted.
