Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (Lou Gehrig s disease) is caused by electric currents applied to or induced in the body: It is an iatrogenic disease of athletes caused by use of electrotherapy devices.

Are Cell Phones Dangerous?

Aired: 03/16/2010

There have been whispers about a link between cell phone use and brain cancer for decades. But while the state of Maine and the city of San Francisco consider requiring a warning label on cellular phones, the FCC and the mobile phone industry say there?s nothing to worry about.

Today we?ll talk to experts on both sides of this divide and try to figure out just what the available data means.

Is your cell phone a danger to you and those around you? What about cell towers and wi-fi? What about the FM radio you?re listening to right now? Olle Johansson (from around minute 21:30) and Blake Levitt (39:50).

Letter to the Editor,

I just read Brian Stelter's article "F.C.C. Says Adoption of New Broadband Plan Is Vital" (March 16, 2010)

Fibre optics provide a much better solution than wireless broadband for internet access. Fibre optic networks are faster, more secure, have less interference, can handle large traffic flow, and do not emit radio frequency radiation that seems to be making some people ill. In the short-term fibre optics are more expensive but in the long-term they provide a much less expensive and more reliable service. Fibre optics can be used in most communities and are especially cost-effective in densely populated areas. With fibre optics, wireless access could be limited to essential emergency services (fire fighters and police) and perhaps used in areas where wired infrastructure is technically inappropriate. This would reduce our exposure to electromagnetic frequencies and it would limit the number of licenses required leaving these frequencies available for radio and television broadcast.
