I looked for mobile phones bad, and there seems to be some reason to worry a bit.

bks, with all due respect. Those links are either to recognised scientific bodies saying "no provable risk, and we have looked", or to agenda-rich research scientists saying "give me more funding and I'll prove the sky is falling in"

Stella & Whisky with me. I'll blame the WiFi from now on.

It's amazing how they react so strongly to the relatively short range WiFi/mobile phone signals and yet don't react at all to Radio and TV signals that are much longer range

Indeed, or em radiation from the sun or reaching us from space.

I found this link in wikipedia

http://www.who.int/mediacentre/factsheets/fs296/en...

"The majority of studies indicate that EHS individuals cannot detect EMF exposure any more accurately than non-EHS individuals. Well controlled and conducted double-blind studies have shown that symptoms were not correlated with EMF exposure."

Or the natural radiation, electromagnetism, that surrounds us every day of the year.

She should move to Wales very little mobile coverage outside of towns and cities. Some parts of Mid Wales don't even know what a Wi Fi is.

A few weeks back I was watching the BBC and there was dumb presenter talking to one of there regular guests (not a scientist, just someone with the abilty to read the daily mail) about his very thing. Neither of them had a clue what they were talking about, and even mentioned baby monitors being a risk to babies FFS!

No hint of irony that they were broadcasting this across the whole nation using the very same technology.

Now I wonder if there's a correlation between having EHS and other medical conditions....couldn't be the usual hypochondriacs could it?

I never realised there was so much out there on this. I'm not sold on it though.

This did make me laugh. I thought a mobile device ramps up the power if it detects a weak signal so surely this would make things "worse"

just to throw in a spanner... Why were so many mobile masts moved away from schools?
