Relationship between brain cancer and cell phone use. (tumors, time)

[simpleharmonicmotion]

I am saddened that there is now empirical data behind the use of cell phones (i.e. its radiation) and brain cancer and there is no huge massive campaign about it. This is something everyone should read.

"The health hazards posed by cell phone usage are getting increasingly hard to ignore. They include, but are not exclusive to, an increased risk of brain cancer for people who have been using the phones for more than a decade. Numerous European countries, Israel and Canada are already pursuing guidelines for safer use of cellphones. A year ago a group of surgical neurologists at the University of Pittsburgh called for access to industry data. Even the FCC is beginning to drop hints of a problem."

"CONCLUSION: The authors conclude that there is adequate epidemiologic evidence to suggest a link between prolonged cell phone usage and the development of an ipsilateral brain tumor."

I have heard about this for a few years now, glad to see studies are being done. So many people stay on their phones all the time, some to the extreem. I know one man who used over 10,000 minutes in one month, yes TEN thousand minutes in one month.. That is just TO extreem!

I see people walk out of their house where there is a land line, get in the car and start making calls. I always think how crazy that is.
