Cell phones forum: Poll: Do you think cell phone radiation exposure is harmful?

Let us all get on our cell phones and talk about it.

Yes IT HAS BEEN SCIENTIFICALLY PROVEN, and buried by cellphone companies who can financially pressure the media to black-out the topic from the popular media! The same is also true of Fluoride, google Dr. Yiamouyiannis, and wake up to reality! Here's an actual scientific discussion, based on actual scientific PROOF! It took me all of 3 seconds to find it. To claim this doesn't exist is an excuse for being lazy, or wantonly ignorant, or politically and financially motivated NOT to tell the truth. SHAME! How to prevent risk:
Do not store your cell phone in your pocket if you are a man, it will damage your sperm, lower your sperm count, and cause testicular cancer: FACT! Women should NOT store their cell phones in a handbag kept on their arm and beside their breasts as this will damage their breast tissue and can cause breast cancer: FACT! mice exposed to microwave radiation develop tumors FACT! Long term exposure to the head can cause brain tumors FACT! People who know a lot about computers, and software, ARE NOT qualified to make public scientific disclaimers on the effects of microwave radiation on the human body, unless they have a secondary PHD on the topic that they can cite; otherwise, don't be lazy and DO the research, or you'll risk public embarrassment time and time again Mr. Koo!

If it has, I didn't know... Please let me know where you are reading this.

From what I have read, nothing is in black ink where it states "Cell phone does causes cancer"... they all say "it maybe"or "could have" or and are inconclusive.

Demacilies, I'm not debating with you because I have no doubt that cell phones with enough usage will probably eventually lead to cancer or other health issues. But until it's in black and white--stamped with something official and conclusive, then I can't say it has been scientifically proven.

Here's my research:

Zombies hate the truth! They don't like THINKING... it hurts too much! Take your cell phone, stick it by your radio, and turn it on... the interference will be evident. I can post a demo if you're head 's are still full of propaganda. Then again... yeah... use your phone all the time... stick right to your head and keep it there all day. Eat as much fluoride as you can, and eat all the GMO food possible. Rid us of your stupidity. Thank you!

Ham radio operators have been exposing themselves and their families to RF at strengths more than a thousand times that of cell phones for a century. Where are the attorneys and honorable representatives??

The radiation from any transmitter drops off as a function of the square of the distance form it. For example: 1 volt/meter at 1 foot becomes 1/4 volt/meter at 2 feet. And most of the hams I've known over the years have always prided themselves on how far they could talk with how little power transmitted.

Like mal_aus, I am in my 70s. If the radiation is a danger, there is a lot more of it around me than what can possibly come from my cell phone. In addition, I very seldom hold my cell phone to my ear. Most of the time, I use a bluetooth that relays the sound to my hearing aids.

What drivel. Who is this bloke and what's his claim to fame? He's up there with the fairies. Next he'll claim cell phones are the cause of global warming. It seems conspiracy theory is rampant.

The fear of cellphone radiation is junk science. See the work of Robert Park, Physics Dept, University of Maryland. He has been battling this nonsense for many years. His work explains why the fears regarding cellphone radiation are groundless from a physics perspective. Of course, this will not keep true believers in junk science from believing in their favorite cause. For Bob Park's url, go to http://bobpark.physics.umd.edu/bob.html.

I don't believe anything much that is "Scientifically proven" but there are cases of birth defects from living under electrical lines and then there are those who have lived under them for years and had all normal children.
Can cell phones or bluetooth or wifi cause tumers? Maybe. But how many people? How much activity? How susceptable is the individual? All the things you never hear in SCIENIFIC STUDY as reported by media or politions on a mission or witch hunt.

Dental x-rays have been proven to be a cause of brain tumors. But every time we go the good doctor wants to take a few new slides. I am no professional on the subject but I would bet that a Dental x-ray machine emits a lot more radiation in one burst than a number of lengthy cell phone conversations. Dentists are not required to warn us about this?

Yes! It was scientifically proven by AT&T testing center. I have a friend (cannot disclose name) was very much involved in the testing process on extended cell phone use and the first report of brain cancer lawsuit came up years ago...I know because he called me up after all the results came and told me to lose my phone and take away the kids phone until he's next visit. Also it turns out that certain RF signals can produce a type of cancer as well by going over the CB radio's. AT&T was able to pull a number of medical reports on truckers who used twin (Big Momma's) aerials, and found a significant number of truckers with cancer in their left arms (always hanging out the window by the aerial antenna).

Flip phone's were found to be a better choice of phone than the slide phone, better protection. So I was able to keep my phone, talk time was on average of 60 min; a month, but I had to replace the kids phones to flip phones. Since I don't have a cell phone plan I was able to do that toss the old phones and get new one.

So far on a medical stand point, most of the reports have been squelched' because of a huge lawsuit and on how many cell phones are out there in just about everybody's hands...a BIG money loss to the cell phone makers. At that time AT&T was in way too deep to pull out of that business.

I also have had a brain tumour and have no doubt that cell phones were not part of the cause.

No, Never deliberately use artificial sweeteners. All my life been into athletic pursuits of one kind or another. Always ate healthy and don't drink alcohol or smoke. I use an old mobile phone to make and receive rare calls. Mostly use Skype. Do sit in front of a PC for many hours which has an LCD monitor. These days I spend half of each day on the golf course and never worry about the sword over my head.
I have had a brain tumour and a squamous tumour removed over the last 6 years and now cover up well in the sun. That is where the most danger lies.
