Yeah, the fewer phonecalls I get from people who call me (mainly my folks), the fewer headaches I come down with. I never understood why until now.

God forgive me, but this is the best news I’ve heard in a long time. I am SO SICK of these cellular phone yakkers, whether it’s because they drive so slow tying up traffic, or yell during their conversations while shopping, dining in a restaurant or just walking down the street. And I love how they talk defiantly in doctor’s waiting rooms, while staring right at signs that state “Turn off Cellular Phones”.

The phone itself is not the problem, of course, it’s the rude behavior of the users. Who needs to do all this talking?

Study with 35 people is useless.

I charge my phone at night right beside my bed I suppose I am setting myself up for sour stomach, boils, shin splints, hemorrhoids, acne, baldness, along with the headaches. Those danged cell phone are he root of all evil! I overheard a cell phone conversation at a restaurant this evening and it ruined my dining experience! Ban ‘em!

I’m in the demographic group studied.... I would certainly skew their results. I used my cellphone a grand total of 14 minutes in the month of December. With the holidays I guess my usage was up.

It is a plot to kill us off.

Errr... did they compare with those who use a landline phone just before bed?

Headaches linked to consternation over RINO domination of the Republican primaries...

It’s definitely true. I know because my ex-wives are linked to mobile phones which links them to my mobile phone and I get the headaches. Case closed.

All my headaches went away and I've been sleeping like a baby since I got an iphone.

Seventy-one people does not sound like a sufficient test population to me either.

I guess they gave up the brain cancer scare and are now aiming lower.

Was it the University of Uppsala that also gave us the powerline cancer study twenty years ago?

If this is true, then my son should be dead. He spends hours on his cell phone with his girls friend.

I was on the train today from NYC to DC and for the first hour until we got to Trenton was infuriating. All because of a totally obnoxious woman across the aisle who felt the need to call everyone she knows and proceed to scream into the phone about how she would be in Trenton soon, and the names of each of the stops on the way, and how amazing it was that she was able to talk to them while she was on the train, etc. As if this wasn’t bad enough, she felt the need to have the volume of her cell phone up loud enough so that everyone within 50 feet could her every single word of the people she was talking to. I’m grateful she wasn’t on the train for the whole three hours to DC.

My mother in law calls before bed. Splains everything.

What does give me a headache ... females, usually soccer mom types, driving two ton SUV’s while chattering away on a cellphone. One of them nearly took off the left front fender of my well maintained ‘85 Benz recently while making a left hand turn at a traffic light. Completely clueless.
