Mobiles 'may cause brain cancer

[7redorbs]

The World Health Organization's cancer research agency says mobile phones are "possibly carcinogenic".

A review of evidence suggests an increased risk of a malignant type of brain cancer cannot be ruled out.

However, any link is not certain - they concluded that it was "not clearly established that it does cause cancer in humans".

A cancer charity said the evidence was too weak to draw strong conclusions from.

A group of 31 experts has been meeting in Lyon, France, to review human evidence coming from epidemiological studies.

They said they looked at all relevant human studies of people using mobile phones and exposure to electromagnetic fields in their workplace.

The WHO's International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) can give mobile phones one of five scientific labels: carcinogenic, probably carcinogenic, possibly carcinogenic, not classifiable or not carcinogenic.

It concluded that mobiles should be rated as "possibly carcinogenic" because of a possible link with a type of brain cancer - glioma.

Ed Yong, head of health information at Cancer Research UK, said: "The WHO's verdict means that there is some evidence linking mobile phones to cancer but it is too weak to draw strong conclusions from.

The whole mobile cellular phone danger thing is really up in the air in the minds of scientists right now. Some studies show increased cancer rates for example, while some studies show decreased cancer rates. Yet the latter doesn't sell well, so we often only hear news related to the studies showing increased cancer rates from cell phone users. So its really one of those things that doesn't have a definitive answer or conclusion to it yet.

Oh! Microwaves cause DNA damage. It is just whether it is determined to be safe or not. Mostly determined by whether the functioning of the biological entity is affected. (even if the slide shows comet tail, e.g. dna damage) and determine that as the 'safe' level. Which, in some respects make sense, however I'm not sure I agree with technology that , by definition, is resistance.

It's a dirty transmitter. Longitudinal waves/pressure waves would be more suitable, which is what Nikola Tesla, I believe desired. I could be wrong about that he desired it, but anyway. Microwaves do cause cellular damage. I attach a slide of the DNA damage of microwave exposure at the maximum safe SAR level below!

Enjoy!

Lai, a soft-spoken bespectacled man with an understated sense of humor-he once deadpanned to a national television reporter that the most difficult part of his research involved getting the rats to use tiny cell phones-still expresses surprise at being at the center of the ongoing, swirling debate.

"I'm just a simple scientist trying to do my research," he says. He sees the path that led to controversy as marked by chance and serendipity.

A Hong Kong native, Lai earned his bachelor's degree in physiology from McGill University in Montreal and came to the UW in 1972 to do graduate work. He earned his doctoral degree in psychology and did post-doc work in pharmacology with Akira Horita. His initial research involved the effects of alcohol on the brain. He also worked on a new compound to treat schizophrenia.

A shift came in 1979. Bill Guy, UW emeritus professor and a pioneer in the field of radio wave physics, offered Lai a chance to do research on microwaves through a grant from the Office of Naval Research.

The pair first examined whether microwaves can affect drug interactions (they can), then if there appears to be an effect on learning (there does). Then, in the early '90s, Singh arrived in Seattle. He approached Lai about joining his lab. "He was an expert on DNA damage," Lai recalls. "I said, 'Well, why not?'"

I am willing to entertain that the attached picture is not what happens to DNA fragments (comet tailing) at the maximum established SAR Level. However I've seen the pictures of the determined safe level and can say they look very similar to the microwave radiation exposure Dr Henry Lai has provided.

Short summary, the picture should convey what we need to look at to make a real determinisation.

I think the truest, and indisputable fact is that microwave radiations at any amplitude can dischord part of the DNA (by resonance interaction). Sort of like a very slow picking at your atoms... you can see why it can easily be dismissed. In truth though we must admit that damage is there and damage is caused.

We must of course debate how much. That is where truth resides in this matter. And, whether the sacrifice of the longitudinal wave is the result of the great damage that the 90 degree Hertzian wave system causes. I propose sound would be far safer. (Decibels). This is most notably the system that Tesla used to create many of his patented devices.

If you are not a scientist and have problems believing me, (or, perhaps a scientist) then take a look at the below image (the source is listed below)

It shows a nice diagram showing the basic concept behind cellular radiation damage. Notice the waves direction. And that the right angles of the wave are the thing responsible for the damage. This is a feature of the Hertz wave system. There are _other ways_. And no I couldn't do it better myself ;-)..

In the end I found a picture that shows SAR maximum safety limit of microwave emissions in mobile phones showing the DNA damage (or comet tail) here it is below:

don't feel compelled to believe.. feel humbled in knowing what radiation does to life in the hertzian system. Discover for yoruself, and verify that I am incorrect i you feel I may be. You are serving society yourself, and helping me if you find I'm wrong. Seriously!
