    No could about it, thats the whole point of double
    blind trials, to separate real and imagined effects.

    Pity I never ever said anything even remotely resembling anything like that last.

    That question was very carefully studied once it became clear
    that radars can produce cataracts and consideration was given
    to how widespread that effect of microwave radiation is.

    That was studied very carefully with microwave ovens.

    Only for those pig ignorant about the basics of what has been studied
    using rigorous science with the effects of microwaves on humans.

    Time has already told. Hand held radio transmitters that use those
    frequencys have been around for a hell of a long time now and time has told
    that there isnt a shred of rigorous scientific evidence that there are ANY health
    effects whatever at the levels seen with DECT phones or mobiles either.

    Mine is 2.4GHz which AFAIK (now), is worse than 5.8 anyway. However, like
    most here, I didn't believe there was a problem until I bought one myself,
    and started experiencing problems directly correlated with my actual usage,
    (and only with calls longer than a few minutes).
    I never use a mobile phone long enough to have problems, even if they were
    the same frequency, and I never have a problem with a normal wired phone, no
    matter how long the call. So now I transfer back to a normal handset for
    longer calls, but have no idea if I am still doing any long term damage.
    Theoretically not of course, but the actual proof is lacking one way or the
    other IMO.

    Still, I say the same about God, so that places me in the minority there as
    well :-)

    Nope, the power levels used by DECT phones are MUCH too low for that.

    Stupid assumption, its NOTHING like that.

    A double blind trial WITH THAT INDIVIDUAL WHO CLAIMS TO
    BE GETTING AN REAL EFFECT proves without a shadow of
    doubt whether its a real or imagined effect WITH THAT INDIVIDUAL.

    And its completely trivial to design the trial WITH THAT INDIVIDUAL
    to decide whether the result is statistically significant or not.

    Nope. When that effect with high power radars was discovered,
    the epidemiology with lower power RF was carefully scrutenised
    and there isnt a shred of evidence of any health effects with those
    who use normal low power RF transmitters.

    Similar epidemiology has been done with nuclear radiation once
    it became clear that high levels does indeed produce significant
    health effects, and it looks rather like low level effects not only
    dont produce health effects, they actually produce health benefits.
    And that appears to be because they encourage the system to
    deal with genetic damage, primes the immune system in effect.

    Its very unlikely indeed that that fruit loop gutless wonder
    is the only individual in the entire world that actually gets an
    effect that can be sustantiated in a proper double blind trial.

    > so all the evidence isn't in yet, is it?


    It never is in that sense that every single individual
    in the entire world is tested to see if they can detect
    the effect of low level RF in a double blind trial.

    Only a fool would suggest that that means a damned thing.

    By that logic, simply not performing any studies makes everything safe. Yes
    that is standard corporate/government policy.

    I didn't know 40 years ago, and I don't believe many other users did either.
    Even more so all the users OVER 100 years ago.
    And there's the problem, people like you believe they know everything there
    is to know, pity real science often takes time to catch up.

    That is what I originally said to the fruit loop, that until he can
    establish with a proper double blind trial, that he can in fact
    actually detect whether the DECT phone is transmitting,
    all we have is his assertion that he can, and its MUCH more
    likely that he's actually imagining any effect he claims to get.

    Never ever did anything even remotely resembling anything like that either.
