    This will blow your mind!

    This is probably what it does
    To our brain cells - like putting
    Your head in a microwave.

    Check this out! And we're
    Supposed to believe that cell
    Phones are safe?

    There's probably no need to worry if you have a regular cell phone. I just checked with DH and he felt that only the GSM phones might have enough power to be able to do something like that.

    FYI, DH manages a group that designs components for cell phones. However, I might try to conduct an independent experiment tonight ;-)
