Mobile Popcorn

This is your brain on drugs!

I was sent a bizarre and somewhat disturbing email the other day. I'm not sure how much public knowledge there is regarding the odd display i witnessed, but it certainly was enough to get me thinking. 'How much do i need to use my mobile phone?'
The short clip was about 4 young people, possibly college students, and more possibly nerds, who sat down at a table and each placed a mobile phone on the table. They then formed a ring (no pun intended) with their phones, and sat a corn kernel in the middle of them. They then proceeded to each pull out another mobile phone to call their respective phones. With all 4 phones ringing it only took a couple of seconds before the kernel popped into a piece of popcorn. I was astounded...and worried.

How can the transmissions to the phones cause that much heat in such a small amount of time. Everyone knows that even in a microwave, popcorn takes a while before it starts to pop! It is worrying to think that we put something with that much power so close to our brains every day. I heard a report recently stating that there was no proof that mobile phones caused brain tumors. But surely with that kind of display, it can't be good for your head!
I personally haven't tried this demonstration, but it certainly looked legitimate to me. It definitely made me think that perhaps i should keep my mobile phone usage to a minimum. I had a bit of a reckless youth so i can't afford to have any more damage to my brain, i've hurt it enough. So if you happen to have 8 mobile phones at home, give it a go, and then for god's sake get rid of all those phones or you'll give yourself an aneurysm. Anyway i just thought i'd share it and provide a little more thought regarding something that we use every day, that could ultimately kill us or at least make us more stupid than we already are.
