I've stopped using my mobile apart from emergencies and have hard wired my house as I noticed a feeling of "hot" headedness and mild but unpleasant vague disorientation whenever I used a mobile for any length of time or used my laptop via the WAP. Recently the same "feelings" re-occurred and I discovered that my neighbour's new wifi hub is strong enough to be detected by my laptop in my house. (which presents a tricky choice!) I avoid using WiFi as I think I'm "electro-sensitive". It is, however, hard to prove one way or the other as the effects are very subtle and vague. Maybe one day the negative health effects will become documented, after all we thought sunbathing was good for you for a while... ;o) ************************************************** For mcg information and to manage your subscription to the list, visit the website at http://www.museumscomputergroup.org.uk **************************************************
