Title: Re: ionizing radiation

Note that the strength of EM radiation from a cell phone is highest when it connects to the tower, at the start of a call, incoming or outgoing.  I don't recall the precise numbers, but I saw the experiment on 'Mythbusters' when they were dealing with the cell phone / gas station myth.

I realize that, however that ducks the question about what  the effects of the cell phone in transmit mode are.

The reason your head may feel hot after continued cell use is due to the waste heat from the phone.

Hum, possible, but I doubt it. According to the Interviewee, you can do some kind of brain scan of users and show changes in the area of the brain nearest to the antenna. One of my business associates was trying to make the case that microwave radiation is good, or at least benign, I think he's living in la la land. The biochemist Glen Rein showed that there is a characteristic signature of microwave radiation left on the water.

 
Apples and oranges certainly, but you are comparing 2 apples to about 2000 oranges.  AM towers transmit at a much higher power.

Power isn't the issue, it's the frequency.
 
The EM radiation from the cell transmitter shouldn't travel up the wires for your earpiece.

I hope you're right about that.

 
As for cases of brain cancer, maybe you should look to your CRT monitor as the culprit?

good point

... If this were generally true, there
would be a worldwide epidemic of brain cancer by now.

I think you will find that there is.
A few years ago the increase in brain cancers in the US (and presumably other countries) was said to be of epidemic proportions but as far as I am aware that predates the use of mobile phones.

According to the interviewee, we are seeing the beginnings of such an epidemic, we shall see. I'm sure that there we're trial lawyers in the C to C audience who were salivating at the prospect of investigating the matter!
