Jed, As the book demonstrates, there is strong evidence that every time you use a cell phone close to your ear, there is the possibility of permanent brain damage. If held as far away from the ear as manufacturers suggest, it is not a problem. Likewise with ear buds or clips. Green Swan Inc. is developing a simple device that keeps it the proper distance from the ear and happens to improve the audio.

We have discussed this here from time to time. There is some tentative evidence that holding a cell phone close to your head for hours a day causes harm. That is an extreme thing to do. Most people do not do that, especially not not nowadays, when they have these earphone things. There will not be many people in the world who have done this, so there will not be much evidence. My guess is that the heat from the cellphone may cause harm when you hold the phone next to your skin for hours a day. A person might test my hypothesis by taping a resistor next to the skin of a rat. You wouldn't want to test it on a person! As a general rule, you do not want to set up novel and fairly extreme conditions that do not exist in nature, such as having a small, hot object next to your skin for many hours a day. Along the same lines, don't eat large amounts of recently invented fast food and sweeteners that your ancestors did not eat. I doubt it is carcinogenic but it is likely to lead to obesity. Be conservative when it comes to health. - Jed
