  Wikipedia disagrees. Its "electromagnetic wave" article redirects here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electromagnetic_radiation http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electromagnetic_radiation Cellphones would be useless if they didn't radiate, much like lights, TVs, ovens, etc.

  Google gives me around 2 million hits for "electromagnetic radiation".

    Google gives me around 275,000 hits for 'Bill Gates is Satan' and 130,000 hits for 'Every time you masterbate, a kitten dies' but I can't vouch for the latter.

      That's especially shocking given that you spelled masturbate wrong ;-)

      Hey I wasn't using google to establish the truth-value of a proposition. I was just trying to show that there's wide-scale usage of 'radiation' to describe what an electromagnetic wave is.

  Incorrect. (Yes, I'm a physicist.)
