You may have recently seen media reports claiming that cell phone appear to have a protective effect against Alzheimer’s disease.  In a posting made to the site “EMFacts”, a PhD candidate named Don studying the subject explains why this is actually not good news at all: Visit this link to get started on a fabulous […]

Columbia University Law School was the site for a panel on the health hazards of electromagnetic fields.   Wireless radiation creates cognitive problems, damages everyone’s DNA, diminishes fertility, causes disorientation and navigation difficulties for birds, bees and other wildlife, and may contribute to Bee Colony Collapse, which if not reversed will jeopardize the future of […]

Airline passengers who sneak in cell phone calls, play with gaming devices or listen to their mp3 players during takeoff or landing probably won’t cause a plane crash, but they may risk a confrontation with flight attendants. Researchers and aircraft companies have found almost no direct evidence of cell phones or other electronic devices interfering […]
