Beavers" Subject: RE: Wireless (cell phone) safety.....(fwd) Roy, I have been advised by a scientist that the more expensive and sophisticated the cell phone, the safer it is. I asked the scientist if this was because the more expensive the phone, the more likely it had some sort of shielding. He told me that if it had shielding then it probably would not work satisfactorily but never really answered the question. Is it possible that telecommunications companies have some new technology for the future and are building some sort of safety mechanism into expensive cell phones without telling their public. Is this the reason they are giving away cheaper, less safe models, to an unsuspecting public? Can anyone answer this question? Best wishes, Stephanie -----Original Message----- From: Roy L.

As an employer [without a cell phone :-)] I have seen many people who do _not_ really have a stressful life, but still use their cell phone all the time because they think it's "in", "cool" etc.-simply as a status symbol so they (and others) can think they are VIPs ;-) (or some just suffer from telephonitis, i.e. phone-addiction wherever they are). This bunch of heavy users would be a great "control group" versus those really stressed managers .... Cheers, Chris .....Yes!!! Like Elizabeth Taylor, recently the victim of a brain tumor..... or Dawn Steel, Hollywood producer of Top Gun, Fatal Attraction and other well known shows. She died at 51 of a brain tumor.... The cell phones are extremely popular-status symbols-in the Hollywood set.... guru....
