Funny story. I was mountain biking and met up with this old timer. We struck up a conversation and it turned out he was a pretty high up engineer with Motorola in the early days of cell phones. He said they examined the possible health risks of cell phones and the overwhelming theory among the engineers is that it was in fact dangerous but they felt that since cell phones would be used rarely and only for a few minutes at a time that it would not be an issue. For the younger kids, remember that cell phones use to cost several dollars a minute in the very early days!

They really never imagined that every kid and every adult would use one as their full time phone.
