Thread Name: Mobile Phone Masts
Subject: RE: Mobile Phone Masts
BS section...?
Re placing them in populated areas, they'd be no damn use at all if they only put them where no-one ever went, now would they? :-) If it's an eyesore then I can understand the worry. But otherwise only non-mobile-phone owners have any right to object. And they can do a good job of concealing them now if they have to.
Re tech info, studies so far say there's no effects from mobile phones near you, or from masts. Or to be more accurate, less than a fraction of a percent of the population could experience ill-effects, because they can't see any in the samples.

PS. One of the great recent ironies is that 80-90% of kids have mobiles, but parents will happily form up vigilante groups and man the barricades to prevent phone masts being put up anywhere near a school. A school with maybe 500-1000 phones. Go figure...
