Ouch on the nuke plants causing cancer (from a future nuclear engineer)

Your mom doesn't give me cancer yet. And she is FINE.

Just to point out, the first panel says "it's" instead of "it"

Those kinds of cancer-causing warnings always remind me of this comic:http://www.phdcomics.com/comics/archive.php?comic…

  Fixed! Thanks for the find.

Funny comic! But cell phones are not SO harmful. Those tubes will kill us all one day.

And yeah, Ross. Thanks for describing Paste in Place. NOW I get it. Great stuff!

Apparantly anything causes cancer these days. Makes me feel less like quitting smoking… Looks like all my other habits will kill me before that does…

Based on all of the sites I found that relate cell phone use to cancer, I think being next to a nuclear energy plant would be safer and we should all go back to using soup cans attached by a waxed string as phones (it was actually before my time, but I know it existed).

Or, you can have a long line of people who pass the message along–it was aptly called, "Telephone". That way the message might actually be a better one than the one you wanted to get across. Plus, you have the chance to catch a communicable disease by standing next to someone who has a cold, flu, whatever.

I have often wanted to go to the various highway/freeway entrances to the state of California and add something to the obligatory "Welcome to California" signs saying, "WARNING: This state contains chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm."
O.K.

Last month I received an e-mail saying that magnets in the fridge door might give cancer to THE FOOD and it coul pass on to people who eat it… "research from a known American University" who obviously likes to keep it quiet by not displaying its name nor the research… oh well…

  Not to be confused with American University (www.american.edu).

Things that will give you a higher dose of radiation than standing next to a nuclear power plant for a whole day:

1. Smoking a cigarette.
2. Spending an hour on the beach.
3. Standing next to a conventional plant for ten minutes.
4. Getting an x-ray, PET or CAT scan

Cell phones do not cause cancer. The radio waves they use are perfectly harmless as are all types of EM radiation with wavelengths larger than x-rays, including microwaves in fact (hence why I would much rather get an MRI than X-RAY). In fact you would be in more danger from visible light which has more energy than the radio waves or microwaves.
