sentiment_stocks I do not believe there is any increase in brain cancer, due to cell phone usage. I believe MRI and other equipment, are better able to detect brain cancer, than in the past. So more cases of brain cancer are found. Just my opinion though.

I mostly text, infrequently talk on the phone anymore. Though I do keep it in my front pocket of my jeans.

It seems good to take reasonable precautions if / when possible. The study in the article showed a presumably strong correlation between cell phone use and GBM specifically, not all brain cancers.

As a result, I did a quick search for more info and I briefly glanced through a very recent study that uses a classic causation model to assert just that, that there is evidence of causation. It was done in some Scandinavian country, which may be why we haven’t seen it here yet.

Since that’s a pretty strong, new claim, the study deserves more scrutiny that I can give it now. I’m content to have it register as “some anonymous horse on an internet message board made some wildass claim that he didn’t back up” at this point in time, even though I’m not making that particular claim — yet, if ever.
