I'm certainly not too worried because they seem to have too hard of a
time proving anything. Unlike smoking and lung cancer anyway.

How many years was it from the first smoke until the lung cancer link
was suspected? How many years was it from the first cellphone until
brain tumors were suspected? It is unlike only in the amount of time.

It is also 'unlike' in that the link between smoking and lung cancer is
a 100% proven fact (well known since the 1950s) whereas the link
between cellphones and brain tumours is at best tenuous.

Surprisingly, people are suing tobacco companies on the grounds that
'they didn't know' that smoking was bad for you. I suspect that these
are the same type of people who want to ban phone masts, but not the
phones themselves, of course, ie pretty thick!

The are probably also quite happy to have a TV transmitting mast at a
thousand or more times the power.
