Evening, everyone. Pravda! Art, you should know better.

Here's a link to a different site about cell phones cooking eggs:
http://urbanlegends.about.com/library/b ... phones.htm

From the article:
Comments: The "news" that radio frequency emissions from a pair of cell phones can be harnessed for cooking caused quite a stir in the blogosphere when it broke last February. Skeptics insisted it was impossible -- that the slight wattage emitted by mobile phones isn't strong or consistent enough to heat an object to cooking temperature. Some tried to replicate the experiment, without success. Others investigated the original source of the information, the Wymsey Village Web, and questioned its authenticity. Mightn't the name "Wymsey" be a clue?

Sure enough, the site's Webmaster, one Charles Ivermee of Southampton, U.K., stepped forward to acknowledge authorship of the article and confirm that its content was purely satirical, not factual. "It was 6 years ago," Ivermee told Gelf Magazine, "but I seem to recall that there was a lot of concern about people's brains getting fried and being from a radio/electronics background I found it all rather silly. So I thought I'd add to the silliness." He expressed bewilderment at how seriously people seemed to be taking it. One British exam study site, he said, had republished the information without even attempting to verify it.

end of quote.

I couldn't follow it but it's old news. Jeff Rence had it on this last June.

Rense is on top of everything.. a real mover and shaker.
Wonder about the cell towers too... They put up 4 of them close to me...
I'm feeling well done these days.

What is this caller saying??
A real weirdo.

That caller didn't have much time to say what he had to say..
But, what he said was right on...
Glad Art let him have his soapbox time.

We need a People's Party, not Dems or Reps..
I agree.
