Testing Cell Phone Radiation on Humans
Palm Addict writes "News.com reports that Finland's radiation watchdog is to study the effects of mobile phones on human proteins by direct tests on people's skin. From the article: 'A pilot study, to be conducted next week, will expose a small area of skin on volunteers' arms to cell phone radiation for the duration of a long phone call, or for one hour, research professor Dariusz Leszczynski said on Friday.'"
The Finns should be disqualified for this study, they have hardened their tissues by life-long use of saunas.
Remember this?
"Many students, and other young people, have little in the way of cooking skills but can usually get their hands on a couple of mobile phones. So, this week, we show you how to use two mobile phones to cook an egg which will make a change from phoning out for a pizza. Please note that this will not work with cordless phones."n

I suppose cooking a human face is similar enough.
That's an awfully interesting place for a phone. I usually keep mine in my pocket.

What's the use of a cell phone with vibrate capability if you only keep it in your pocket?
You are still innocent until proven guilty. What's changed is what they do to innocent people. - notnAP, #26891325
I have been using cellphones for years and never had any kind of a problem, I find them most useful, for example the third eye above my right ear helps get a better view when driving and the second head sprouting off my hip gives me someone to talk to. Heh radiation altering cells what a load of rubbish and my talking second head agrees.

I want to be the first person to sue the phone companies for giving me cancer. It was so annoying to be born a few years too late to get on the "Sue the Tobacco Industry" bandwagon
You have moved your mouse. You must restart Windows for these changes to take effect.
Is anyone else picturing the Verizon guy in a lab coat standing over test subjects and repeating "Do you have cancer now? Good!"?
After Conan O'Brian visited Finland, it was obvious that some sort of mutations had occurred, as what is
the chance that an American TV personality looks just like the president of Finland?
