"Dr. Volkow said that the latest research is preliminary and does not address questions about cancer or other heath issues"

  Emphasis on "might". It's a hypothetical component of a mechanism, that's all. It proves that the tiny emissions from a phone do have a measurable effect, as opposed to none whatsoever. "the energies involved just don't seem to be sufficient to actually do anything bad." This statement cannot be confirmed - the energies are sufficient to do..."something". Whether it's bad or not, unknown.

    and for once I'm not crazy ! http://well.blogs.nytimes.com/2011/05/31/cellphone-radiation-may-cause-cancer-advisory-panel-says/?src=me&ref=general http://well.blogs.nytimes.com/2011/05/31/cellphone-radiation... > This year, The Journal of the American Medical Association reported on research from the National Institutes of Health, which found that less than an hour of cellphone use can speed up brain activity in the area closest to the phone antenna. The study was among the first and largest to document that the weak radio frequency signals from cellphones have a measurable effect on the brain. The research also offers a potential, albeit hypothetical, explanation for how low levels of nonionizing radiation could cause harm without breaking chemical bonds, possibly by triggering the formation of free radicals or an inflammatory response in the brain.
