They come here tired and bored with their drab and wretched lives, and discover that by checking back every week or two their food tastes better, their hair becomes more manageable, their relationships improve, their sex lives become more satisfying and they become wildly popular in their ever expanding circle of friends.

I have not yet looked into this, but when I overheard my friends and family having discussions about how cell phones, all of a sudden, DO cause brain cancer, but this time for reals - I knew I smelled bull feces. I must say, I think I have been potentially "Smartenized". I think I might even write a letter to the people who decide how to punctuate correctly because I feel so strongly about how certain punctuations belong OUTSIDE of those damn "quotation marks". Thank you. This blog might change my life.

Junk Science never dies. You can debunk it and slam it to the ground and stomp on it's throat and sometimes (and only sometimes) be successful. But in a year or a decade it comes back full force. Witness the recent resurgence of the Anti-Vax movement, which started when vaccination was invented, was stomped down, and has come back several times since.

They have zero credibility. As for cell phones causing cancer, or any illness, I discounted that theory the first time it was proposed since Ham operators, not to mention military personnel, have been using portable transceivers for many years with no ill effects. Considering that those transceivers have output power ratings of up to 10 Watts, the fraction of a watt current cell phones emit is less than negligible. Human beings have been bathed in radio waves since the "wireless" was invented, and most of that radiation is far stronger than any cell phone. I'm sure we will need to debunk this "science" several more times before it goes away. Brian Dave,

Yes, they peddle a lot of pseudoscience but they're also against homeopathy. It's like how Bill Maher is a staunch critic of religion, but also an anti-vaccination nutjob.
