    Cell Phones Killing us?
    I know that cell phones help us out quite a lot in the time that we are living. But, has anyone ever thought of the implications it might have on our head when we are holding a mini microwave next to it all the time. Is this dangerous? Has there ever been research done on it? Please inform me...

    There has been quite a bit of research done on cell phone usage and illness that may be attributed to it. The results are inconclusive.

    I would be more concerned about the immense glowing EM source in the sky than relatively low powered mobile phones.

    Penn and Teller have a show on Showtime called "Bull[explitive]!" They did quite an interesting episode on this.
