patients resided
within the proximity of the Cellphone Towers or they contacted cancer because 
of other reasons I do not know. However, the Cellphone Towers have put a fear 
in the minds of people in the neighbourhood.
People are not ready to accept and debate scientific claims when their lives 
and well being is at stake. Science is not the last word. Science is still 
searching for an answer.

Marshall,
I always had the impression that you would return to a topic when you had new 
evidence to support/contradict a claim. 

As such, I am surprised at your comments as I do not see why anyone would use 
"perhaps coincidence?" to prolong a debate. I believe you are being counter 
productive. 

You are correct on one thing though. Some people will never accept scientific 
proof. Despite all the proof that smoking is carcinogenic, people continue to 
smoke. Some even insist that the health professionals/scientist who link 
cancers to smoking, are just a bunch of idiots.
