G+_Joe Morrison Posted April 22, 2013 Share Posted April 22, 2013 General rule. If the headline ends in a question mark, the answer is no. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Jervis Dabreo Posted April 22, 2013 Author Share Posted April 22, 2013 Note I did not say mobile phones are causing cancer, The research by international cancer research bodies is inconclusive. I'm simply asking persons to be careful.just in case. That is no different from asking persons to cut back on the amount of red meat they consume...just in case Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Derek J.D. Posted April 22, 2013 Share Posted April 22, 2013 I would think the chemicals being put into food and water sources along with the waste made by mega corps is causing more cancer then cell phones. Why don't we start by taking aim at the damage they are doing first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Jervis Dabreo Posted April 22, 2013 Author Share Posted April 22, 2013 I agree with you Derek J.D. and I love my smart devices and have no intention of giving them up, but I do pay attention to the SAR rating for example, before purchasing and place them in airplane mode when I bring them into my room at night.

G+_Derek J.D. Posted April 22, 2013 Share Posted April 22, 2013 I'm not familiar with SAR, who makes these ratings and how do they come up with them? The important question is who financially backs them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Brandt Geiger Posted April 22, 2013 Share Posted April 22, 2013 Maybe you better worry about radios like AM and FM. Some AM radio can transmit at like 50,000 watts at night. We have satellite tv going 24/7 beaming stuff down on us. GPS satellites Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Job Bolle Posted April 22, 2013 Share Posted April 22, 2013 http://xkcd.com/925/ <-- cancer causes cell phones But more seriously, I think that the production of cell phones causes more cancer than the use of cell phones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
