> Are you scared of DECT handsets too?

YES...OF COURSE!! I have a good friend in the industry who told me a
good while ago that DECT was probably MORE damaging that GSM!  Here's a
post  I made to the list in June of last year...

I am exactly the same Dougie!  But even worse is my Ericsson DECT phone
- it gives me instant headaches.  A mate in Telecoms industry says DECT
phones are even more damaging than GSM?"

> Seriously, what is your backup for the 'health risks' associated with
transmission towers?

With the amount of research going on worldwide into the health affects
of mobile phones I am VERY skeptical.  I use a mobile, but try to keep
it to a minimum.  I never let my children use them.

technology are held back

I'm the last person you should accuse of holding up technology! You may
feel you have all the facts on this one,  personally I don't!  How many
people were killed by X-Rays until they HALVED the recommended exposure
levels?

We aren't going to agree on this so lets not continue it.

Thanks
