This is absurd. Electromagnetic signals pass (TV, radio, wireless internet, satelites, etc. etc.) pass through our brains all day long, and have for decades. There is no basis in science for these sort of allegations.

Coming...

from someone with such a highly regarded background though, would scare some people, as a gullible society as we are...

The sad part is how the media reports on every little negetaive thing they can find, even when it has no bassis in fact. More evidence of why main stream media continues to decline.

Cam:

Re-think for just a moment. Cell phones can generate up to 20 watts of transmission power and it's right next to your ear (and of course, brain!)

You are far enough away from other generators of electro-magnetic signals to have the impact greatly reduced. Don't jump to the dangerous conclusion that it's all the same. It is not.

Cam and Carl Both Wrong

Cell phones have closer to 1/3 of a watt. You can buy boosters to take it up to 3 watts(for use in a car or home in fringe areas).

Everyone who wants to reject science and recklessly talk and speed around town...PLEASE keep using your cellphones all day long. Good for the gene pool.
