Cell Phones Cause People to Speed Up

Studies

Apparently, a recent study has concluded not only that cell phone don't give you cancer (phew), but that they make you react faster. I'm not sure I believe it, but it certainly makes me feel better about the cell phone. Hell, that must be why so many car accidents are caused by cell phone weilding drivers: they're reacting too quickly.

    Wait for peer review.

    Honestly, there have been plenty of studies that have come out that were proven to be dead wrong. Wait for other scientists to verify the data.

    Not that it doesn't sound good, but as the saying goes, "if you become wedded to the science of the moment, prepare to be a widow(er) tomorrow."
