No, the website you linked to had an article written by a naturopath, who graduated from a naturopathic school that also hosted the website. IOW, pure fantasy-land.

The actual study in question might have some merit, but it's a single study, and I'd want to see a lot more before changing my behavior based upon it. It also had *nothing* to do with the OP.

How many posts between mine and filtherton, who was apparently the first to actually read the study I posted? 12ish.
o You didn't post a study. You posted a summary of the study written by a naturopath, who as a group tend to believe any number of unlikely things.

o You could have linked to the actual study abstract, like I did. Trust me, I didn't have to look hard.

o The study you referred to has nothing to do with the OP. Did I say it already? Let me say it again. The OP referred to people who think that *WiFi* signals cause them actual distress. You referred to a study that claims that *cellphone* signals (similar, but Not Quite The Same Thing), may increase sensitivity to certain allergens. You apparently didn't bother to read and understand the OP, and/or your own damn article, and this has been pointed out to you several times.

o I did read your article, and by the end of the first paragraph, I wondered what the hell it had to do with the OP. Answer: Nothing. You're wasting my time. (Heh, which is actually a pretty stupid thing for someone on the internet to say, but hey, TFP is supposed to be different, right?)
