[Air-L] regarding mobile devices and cancer: M4D and IARC

[jcu]

Hello Mark,

Check out this link regarding cell phone use and other technologies. 
Alot of information found there. You can also go the research route of
searching Multiple Chemical Sensitivities sites (EMF and wireless 
sensititivities). Finally, who funded the Lancet study? I'd be rather
curious about that.

Please continue to share your findings on this topic!

take care,
joan
