OK, so the brain cancer thing is just a kooky conspiracy theory right?

The city of San Francisco just passed an ordinance that requires cell phone retailers to indicate the Specific Absorption Rate (SAR value)  on all phones sold in the city.

I know many people are rolling their eyes right now, thinking “What more could these delicate NorCal hippies possibly dream up?”  But it was passed with an overwhelming majority, which says…. well, something. Right?

I have to admit, I am still skeptical. On one hand we have a billion dollar phone industry that benefits from finding no evidence of harm. On the other, we have a research project with less than two decades of data, just now getting going.

Until this is all decided, I am going to use my ear bud as much as possible.
