> The head of a prominent cancer research institute has issued an  
> unprecedented warning to his faculty and staff: limit mobile phone  
> use because of the possible risk of cancer.
>
>     He even warns against using mobile phones in public places like  
> a bus because it exposes others to the phone's electromagnetic fields.
>
> The warning from Dr. Ronald B. Herberman, director of the University  
> of Pittsburgh Cancer Institute, is contrary to numerous studies that  
> don't find a link between increased tumors and mobile phone use, and  
> a public lack of worry by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.
>
> Herberman is basing his alarm on early, unpublished data. He says it  
> takes too long to get answers from science and he believes people  
> should take action now - especially when it comes to children.
