Cellphones are dangerous/not dangerous, chapter 8035

Actually, you might have a legitimate reason to throw down for that CellSensor EMF Detector we just mentioned—researchers at the University of Newcastle have determined that the sperm DNA of mice can be damaged by exposure to electromagentic radiation that's at the same frequency as that used in cellphones. You'll be shocked by this, but the scientists who conducted the study say the results are still preliminary and that "clearly further research needs to be done" (translation: gimme some more grant money).

I guess my initial questions on this is where did they get teeny-tiny cell phones for these mice to use and how did they train the mice to hold them up to their ears.......

if all it's doing is killing my sperm.. let it! i don't need little mini-me's running around.

They should study the blood pressure levels of the control mice who are just trying to have a quiet dinner while the test mice are squeaking into their cell phones. The control mice don't want to hear that shit.

LOL- It kills the sperm? Someone should show them how to hold a cell phone.
Could the condom be replaced by the "Cell Jock"?

New birth control method for men:
Just before sex hold phone up to scrotum and have your girl friend call you:
"Trust me, sweetheart, you won�t get pregnant after this call"....

Or now you have an excuse to talk on the phone while having sex..."Hey, I�m not talking to another woman, I�m practicing birth control..."

Jesus! Why didn't the government catch this before these things were everywhere? What am I going to do with all this ruined mouse semen NOW?!

Wow another pointless blurb by some dumb arsed Prof trying to get grant money and not willing to tell you that he's using 100x the EM Rad dosage of what an analog cell phone produces when it's on your nads let alone the that it's 500x what a digital cell phone is putting out, let alone that the radition it's 5000x what your nads get when that digital cell phone is on your hip.

Disclaimer: Numbers used are SWAGs based on the fact that no information in this regards was provided by said Prof.

Chapter 8036:

But the rats were smoking! Huffing paint! Getting a tan only once a year! Near a nuclear power plant! Listening to Manilow! Anything! GAHH!!

I think your right on the money with this article. Tell me, Does anyone know if VOIP signaling is less dangerous than CellPhone signaling?
