WHO Says Cell Phones Cause Cancer?

The World Health Organization yesterday added radio frequency electromagnetic fields (what cell phones emit) to the list of "possible carcinogenic" agents. This got a lot of press with headlines like, "Mobile Phone Radiation Leads to Brain Cancer!" I for one am not concerned. First, cell phone radiation is non-ionizing meaning its completely different than nuclear or X-rays. Second, the list of "possibly carcinogenic" agents includes things like coffee. Given his addiction to Wawa, the Creative One himself must not be too concerned about "possible" agents. That said, given the dramatic rise in cell phone usage over the past decade I think its likely there will be a increase in brain cancer over the next 20 to 30 years. While not worried, I wouldn't hold my iPhone to my head eight hours a day for 20 years and think no biggie. For those that do use a cell phone a lot, a headset is a smart idea. Sadly, I am quite confident Apple will one day face lawsuits similar to the cigarette industry. I mean there marketing is so great how could one resist using the iPhone. Only in America!
