I've heard about this as well, and it alarms me a bit... because ktspktsp and I basically sit around with our laptops for a long time, on a regular basis. Granted, usually we're sitting on a bed (with our legs out in front of us), so the laptop is actually on our thighs, not above our genital area... but it does make me wonder. I guess we'll find out once we start trying to have kids.

Anyone know about the effects of wireless devices/cell phones on reproductive potential?
