Title: David Moon's paper on microwaves
Vortexians;

The cold fusion theorist, David Moon sent me the following paper and asked me to post it on Vortex.

                                     Microwaves, should we mind?

Microwave ovens warm food because the microwave energy resonates with natural oscillations of water molecules in the food, allowing maximum absorption of energy which heats the water and cooks the food. Microwaves are that part of the electromagnetic spectrum having a frequency of 1 to 300 G Hz. Cell phones operate at near - microwave frequency, almost 1 G Hz. some may be further into the microwave band.

In 1991 researchers at the Naval Research Laboratory in Washington, D C, directed a beam of low - energy (350 volts) deuterium ions at a target made of a thin foil of titanium metal. The ion beam was generated using an Electron Cyclotron Resonance (ECR), microwave plasms source. The ECR operated at 2.45 G Hz. The researchers measured a significant rate of emissions of charged particles (mostly tritons at 5.45 - 6.15 Me V) from the target. However when a Kaufmann 10 n  source was used instead, results were not nearly as good. Therefore, my cold fusion theory predicted that microwave energy would increase the NRL reaction that most other cold fusion - type reactions through the mechanism that involves long chains of oscillating deuterons in the surface layers of the metal lattice.

In 1984, Edmund Storms (in a newsletter published by Mitch Swartz) stated that research showed microwaves do enhance cold fusion.

Therefore, in addition to the usual chemical and physical effects of microwaves, we now have the possibility that microwaves may cause some nuclear reactions, in the human body as well.

Is the frequent use of cell phones by any one person advisable? Although cell phones and portable phones function at relatively low power (maybe .25 - .30 watts), I'm not sure that physiological effects of long - term cell phone use have been thoroughly investigated.

At our home, we use a portable phone that happens to operate at a frequency of 2.4 G Hz! Am I doing even slight damage in my head? Should I be concerned, am I "nuking" my brain, or causing other ill effects?

The cell phone industry is huge. I am not suggesting that brain tumors, for example, or head artery problems (as I suffered in May 2005, and was in the Hennepin County Medical Center in Minneapolis for 12 days) can be caused or triggered by use of cell phones or portable phones. One of my neurosurgeons at HCMC said he is not as concerned about cell phones (as I brought up the microwave subject with him) but he is apprehensive about microwave ovens, which operate at 900 - 1300 watts. He does not stand in front of a microwave oven when it is in use. He told me that a medical condition called CNS lymphoma has markedly increased since microwave ovens came into widespread use around 1980*. Normal precautions, therefore are prudent.

*However, no scientific study of a correlation has been done.
