People walk through a maze of minimal electromagnetic output all day long, TV/Radio signals, etc, so these minimal outputs are surely not a problem like an antenna close to one's head might pose.

[FairfieldLife] Re: A message from Bevan Morris: Maharishi on cell phones
Lest anyone think this is more paranoid thinking, keep in mind that the Motorola engineer who was testing the first prototype DID die of a brain tumor on the same side of his head that he held the phone on. Motorola then dropped the power output drastically to the point that its difficult if impossible to establish a correlation between cell phone use and brain cancer. HOWEVER, brain imaging of people while they are using cell phones show that there is a clear effect on brain functioning, at least close to the ear that the phone is next to. In young kids (4 or so years or younger), the effect goes at least halfway through their brain. No-one knows exactly what this kind of electronnic radiation does to the brain, if anything, but I avoid cell phones use though I *will* talk to someone for a minute if they ask to talk to me on one. --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, Rick Archer <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Dear Faculty and Ideal Administrators: > > One point Maharishi mentioned during the Golden Jubilee Guru Purnima > Celebration was to avoid cell phones because of radiation. > > I would like to ask everyone to do this for the sake of your lasting good > health. > > I think we should have cell phones only as an emergency device, and not use > them as a regular way of talking and working.

Experiments have shown that the antenna radiation travels up the wire ear- piece cord to the ear-piece at the head. An ear-piece with an air-tube to the ear-piece at the head prevents the radiation from traveling up the wire cord and being radiated at the head. --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, bbrigante <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, Rick Archer <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > > Dear Faculty and Ideal Administrators: > > > > I think we should have cell phones only as an emergency device, > and not use > > them as a regular way of talking and working.

According to Howard Melamed, CEO of CellAntenna Corporation, external cellular antennas drastically decrease the cellular phones level of microwave radiation absorbed by the human body when used properly. Studies examining the health effects of prolonged exposure to cellular phone electromagnetic radiation (EMR) have been inconclusive or have produced mixed results. But the reality is that cellular phones emit microwave signals that are partially absorbed by the body as users make and receive calls on cellular phones. The radiation level produced by cellular phones is exacerbated by environmental interference and sparse cellular signals, as phones are engineered to operate at full power while in areas with a limited cellular signal. Cell phone users can route the cellular radiation away by installing an external antenna that connects to their cell phone via an adapter. The antenna is then placed at a distance away from them. Additionally, external antennas reduce the radiation power output level of cell phones by helping them relay their signals more efficiently to the nearest cellular towers. Having lower power output has the added effect of lowering battery power consumption and increasing talk time. Yahoo! Groups Sponsor ~--> Get fast access to your favorite Yahoo! Groups.
