I will be honest with you, I have been "dishonest by omission"--I know
the general public is completely unaware of the REAL dangers (well, I am
being kind, they are simply too ignorant to be concerned) ... I know
there are few "experts" who are aware (and "those threats" are being
extinguished with money/lawyers/"orchestrated-studies") ... and those
few who do know are in the medical profession, a couple of them vocal on
the subject ... most say/believe "the government will protect
us"--others say ignorance is bliss (well, I do) ...

Back in the 1980's a "deal was brokered" with the FCC (Hmmm, isn't that
when cell phones "came out?") ... cell phones fall though a "legal
loophole"--they are considered a "low powered device" and unable to do
the damage one needs to fear from a microwave oven--they are exempt,
there really is no Maximum Permissible Levels established which
manufacturers/engineers/industry can EFFECTIVELY be held to ... they
suffer virtually no regulation ... perhaps SAR, but then that is like 4w
per KG? You probably can cook an egg with that! (albeit slowly) LOL!

However, from this URL:

http://www.fcc.gov/Bureaus/Engineeri...56/oet56e4.pdf

You will find within, "Table 1. FCC Limits for Maximum Permissible
Exposure (MPE)" and "(B) Limits for General Population/Uncontrolled
Exposure" ...

.... you may draw your own conclusions about a 300mw source of cooking
frequency within 6mm of your cranium (I have been thinking about that,
the antenna is probably embedded in the middle of that case and ~3mm
from my head :-( ) ... personally, I caution my wife from standing too
close, let alone placing her forehead against the microwave door when in
operation! (she does that yanno'!)

Funny, I just always assumed the people here (well, other than the
idiots) would already be taking precautions (headsets--short
exposures/calls.)

I only hope to be here when they hand out the "Darwin Awards" to those
deserving--post mortem-ously for them, most likely ...
