Ok, so I work in a Faraday cage with 2 granite rods to type on teh PC with. Happy? No EM radiation is getting me.

But... I can't get phone calls.

If I am getting radiation off my BB (more than what is acceptable), I am dead duck. But, as any true addict, I will continue to deny that this is happening.

Wow...that means....the radiation's coming from inside the building! Noooo!

I live 20 miles from a nuclear power plant. That's the only real source of radiation I'm worried about. Well, that and the sun....darn fair skin....

That being said, if they ever do show a link between cell phone usage and some adverse effects due to radiation, I'll rethink them. 'Til then, I'm enjoying my BB too much.

Hey, seriously, if this thing is not emitting radiation then I gotta start using birth control. I hope someone can confirm these things do in fact emit a lot?

That'd be birth control right there...

"I'm sorry, honey....I'm exhausted!"

Oh, the wrong turns these threads take....

I blame all the radiation.

Yes, it is affecting my brain, or lack thereof.

Nonsense from hypochondriacs and obsessives.

You'll die if you drink too much water. Is drinking water dangerous?

Last report, aside from all the kook-rant about cell phone radiation, there has never been a documented case of anyone getting into trouble using a cell phone.

And if using a cell phone scares you, simple answer ... stop using them. But leave the rest of us alone.

And there never was a documented case of asbestosis until the generation affected had grown old. I hope cell phones aren't the next asbestos. One thing's for sure ... an entire generation (maybe even more than one) will someday know the answer.
