Study Proves Cell Phones Don't Cause Cancer... for now

Forget the bluetooth. You can now breathe easy when shoving a cell phone by your ear during a call; A 5 year study, spanning over 4 countries, has shown no substantial evidence that might prove that mobile phones' emitting low frequencies cause cancer in their users. It sounds like good news, but we're not in the clear, yet. The fact of the matter is that the study is only 5 years old - scientists and doctors have to assume that brain tumors could take longer to develop than just 5 short years.  

So if you're feeling iffy about the whole thing, maybe it's best to put in that bluetooth headset again. Yeah, I know, you look like a dork with it on. But hey! It's either that or potentially brain cancer. You choose your silent killer.
