How it works...

Jun 16, 2005 12:05AM PDT

Okay, here is how life works. You are concieved and get any genetic abnormalities and hereditary diseases from your parents. As a small child, you are fed ''all natural'' foods with dyes and preservitives, and milk filled with cow hormones, which are heated for you in a microwave with a radiation leak.

You crawl around and eat lead-based paint chips, causing brain damage.

In school, you are exposed to millions of virii and bacteria, making you sick every other week. Then you get a potentially deadly flu virus, and live.

You walk down the street and inhale second-hand smoke, or perhaps you smoke yourself, permanently damaging your lungs, putting you at a higher risk for lung cancer and heart disease, which doesn't help because you are already high risk because of the DNA your ancestors developed with heart problems and cancer-prone cells.

All the while, UV rays from the sun cook your skin and alter the cells, creating melanomas. Congratulations, you have skin cancer.

Meanwhile, your brain is deteriorating because of the aluminum cans we use to store everything in, and you drink a can of soda a day. Also, since you are diabetic, or perhaps on a diet, you try not to eat too much sugar. Good thing there are aspartame products which contain phenylketonurics to aid in the brain depletion process.

Then, you get a new cell phone. Using it heats up your head, ears and brain. You use a headset to help eliminate some radiation. Meanwhile, the other 30 people around you are on their phones, also giving off radiation in your general direction.

The doctor tells you to lay off of the fatty foods because your arteries are almost completely blocked by the fat cells. You don't listen, have a mild heart attack, and end up in the hospital for a day or so.

You decide to go on a popular diet... again.

To celebrate your new health, you use your cell phone to invite a friend over for a steak dinner. At dinner, you choke on a piece of steak, and die.

The point... I really don't think cell phone radiation should worry people so much.
