We've all heard of the debate surrounding cell phone use and possible links to brain cancer. This demonstration is a real eye opener....Scary...

But I think the initial theory cannot be ignored. There must be a conection between cell phones and cancer. I had a Neurologist come through my office who believed it was true and told me to be on the look out for a rise in cancers in men, especially cancers below the waist (colorectal, penile, testicular, and such), breast and lymphoma as well as brain cancers. When asked why these particular cancers, he said to just consider where men keep their cell phones. Women, on the other hand, keep their phones in their purse, not right against their bodies, and thus not as affected. :shock:

(checks pockets for cell phone; comes up empty and is relieved)

Actually, I carry mine in my shirt pocket, so I guess it'll be breast cancer for me. Joy. :(
