An interesting article just came out in Life Extension magazine about mobile phone dangers:

I found this an excellent read, as it gives an overview of the issue and the history.

It details how mobile phones have never been tested for safety, and that they are a "looming health crisis" for the public, not least of which includes an alarming rise in rates of brain cancer. It also explains that the media are often saying their danger has not been proven either way, whereas in fact there already exists plenty of alarming evidence against their use.

Dr Carlo, in particular, has been one of the only people doing research of integrity (i.e. without a foregone conclusion!) into mobile phone hazards, and his results have been extremely concerning. However, I didn't realize the extent to which Dr Carlo and his work have been harrassed and suppressed. He was originally hired by the industry, who then turned against him when he started publishing results that weren't what they wanted.

I find it instructive to observe what happens when a genuine scientist does genuine scientific work (i.e. research into reality without any foregone conclusions or expectations), then produces results that are displeasing to a multi-billion dollar industry. Extrapolating from this, it illustrates what is going wrong in the scientific world today: true science is hard to actually find whenever a large industry's profits are implicated, which means all of medical science for starters, alas.

The formula is simple: even if a researcher (like Dr Carlo) has the courage to do research into topics that most researchers avoid, and to do it properly, then he won't usually have the courage to follow through and publish if the results fly in the face of industry profiteering. Or else he will publish but won't be accepted in any major journals, and will be all but completely ignored in both academic and media circles. It's sad, but this is the state of "medical science" today.

First they tried to stop Dr Carlo, then to change or limit the research he was doing, but by going public from the beginning about his work they were unable to suppress him. So they scaled down the project, but still he kept at it. So then the character assassination and career threats began. And eventually they even burned his house down. Charming!

Thanks for posting that link.
