Mobiles 'make you senile'
yet another reason for not having a cell phone . . .

http://news.independent.co.uk/world/science_medical/story.jsp?story=443248

Mobile phones and the new wireless technology could cause a "whole generation" of today's teenagers to go senile in the prime of their lives, new research suggests

The study - which warns specifically against "the intense use of mobile phones by youngsters" - comes as research on their health effects is being scaled down, due to industry pressure. It is likely to galvanise concern about the almost universal exposure to microwaves in Western countries, by revealing a new way in which they may seriously damage health.

- much more . . .

4. And to think I've been exposed to Alexander Calder all these years
with no idea of the risks.

6. And if you have a Calder hanging in your mobile home...
and you use a cell phone, you TRIPLE your exposure.

But our corporate whore media won't tell you that.

5. Dude, the whole generation is screwed allready
Look around. No jobs. No hope of home ownership, save for inheratance. No prospects for advancement if they _do_ get a job. They have been raised on MTV and worse.

Maybe early senility will be a blessing for many.
