Mea Culpa


Well.

Upon further examination...

Thanks to Seeker Man...

It seems that the video that I linked yesterday:

was a joke.

It has NOT been replicated
by "normal" people...

I guess you could still try...


It may have been done using a heated table.

Anyway,

it is good to know that those of you

using cell phones on a daily basis,

are not "Micro-popping" your Brains!
At least, we don't THINK so.


I still think the video was funny.

  1. Dang! There goes my excuse for being so addled. I guess it is just old age, after all.

  2. No need to apologize, I think that everyone has been duped by something from the internet. It was a cool effect though. :)

    We here at work got caught up in making some Mountain Dew and a few other ingredients, turn into a glowing concoction. Then we went to snopes.com and...

    Our faces are still red. :)

  4. I'm sure we're bot far from reality. Some really serious studies have been done here, and cell phones are not so useful in a long terme use!

  5. Ahh, phooey! Here I thought such news would force some of the talk-while-they-drive folks to finally put the phones away.

    I do suddenly have a hankering for some popcorn, though, lol.

  7. i've actually heard that there is a doc out there who is kind of convinced that cell phones are going to cause too much radiation with too much use...so i use my bluetooth as much as possible...b/c the satilite signal still goes to the phone itself, not the ear piece. i could not imagine not having a cell phone...you're to be commended!

  8. I loved that video . . . staged or not, my boys thought it was really funny.

    How do people think of these things?

    God bless.

  9. It would have been a good homeschool science experiment, though.

Welcome!
Please leave me your thoughts.

I really do like to hear from you!
I'm just getting the hang of all this
"Bloggy" stuff, but I'll try to get back
to each of you when I can!
