Siding with Fernando on this--but not as passionately! :)
Clearly there *are* many scientific studies that find trouble with cell
phones. A recent new one...

There aren't "none" or "no studies". People may disagree with the findings,
but studies are there. It's too easy to just laugh them all off as "nothing"
when studies exist.
Recently wondering about smart meters, as one was to be installed on my home,
I learned even though the government gives money for the meters to the
electric company, there are absolutely no studies yet on how safe they are!
There is one coming out soon. They say. Industry and government has moved
forward without study. Why? If there is so little problem, let them prove it.
It ought to be easy.
The past and current claims used are that the FCC says the meters are safe.
The FCC did no studies with meters, their study had to do with skin
warmth/burns when in too close contact with similar radiation on people who
work with/install devices for less than 8 hours a day.
Even though health effects of devices are to be looked at by the FDA, nothing
was done at the FDA re: smart meters. Other studies have shown cause for
concern but those studies are "no good" when compared with what? The FDA
study that was never done? This makes it easy for fair and learned
discussion, right? :)
Back to phones, what I've seen/read says that simply using the speaker or a
headset tremendously reduces the negative effects. It is prolonged close use
that is of concern--to some. Distance makes a huge difference.
As to sources, Infowars does not make up information any more than any other
news organization does. They repeat news articles, items, and findings that
fit the interests of their audience/readership. It is hyped at times, but I
have never found any "wrong" information in that Infowars is quoting other
news organizations, government reports, studies, manuals, and so on.
Some claims seem unbelievable but upon a closer look are either entirely true
or contain a significant element of truth that has been hyped up. Is there a
consistent 100% hype-free news organization anywhere? I have seen Infowars
articles with 15-20 or more footnote links. Can't say that about most news
organizations.
I beg for people here to keep their minds open and consider other ideas and
opinions in a civil and helpful way.
