Re: (fwd) Cell Phone Cancer Study
Thanks for critiquing this sensitive topic. The 11-page paper was published by Radiation Research, as noted here, whose editor is at Oak Ridge National Lab, if that offers credibility. Radiation Research's Web site shows an impressive range of credentials of scientists in the field, perhaps superior, if more specialized, to that of Science and Nature, both which oft times suffers the chancres of promiscuous sci-populuxitis. Best is to see the report for oneself. A copy is available for US$30.00 by fax. Request by calling the publisher at (423) 574-5874. Or E-mail to: Radiation Research Biology Division Oak Ridge National Laboratory <radres@aol.com> We've had a layman's look and cite the authors' final cautionary paragraph: "This is not to imply that any humans at all are necessarily at increased risk of cancer as a consequence of exposure to RF fields. No single experiment on animals can allow such a conclusion. Rather, we believe the study reported here indicates a need for further research. Tumorigenesis in genetically predisposed mice may provide a useful assay for interactions between RF fields and biological systems. With the current rapid expansion in the use of RF fields for telecommunications, a reliable assay is required to enable a better assessment of limits to safe levels of human exposure." Send more money or die, sucker, the "responsible" scientist's clanging alarm, eh?
