hypnosec writes: Heath experts in the UK have warned that mobile phones are a ‘health time bomb' about to go off and have asked the government to issue warning to the public. Health experts have pointed to more than 200 medical studies that link diseases such as brain tumors to the use of mobile phones. In a report released by experts, they have blasted the government for refusing to heed their warning and tell the public about the health risks that they face due to continuous exposure to mobile phones. According to the report, young children were at the maximum risk as their skulls were not thick enough to fend off the radiation.

I would actually like to consider this too. When you examine our genetic history, and trace back to common eve/adam, you realize that at some point in a 10-40000 year cycle, the human race moves toward incest and then back toward cross-breeding. Hence the egyptains.

I think this has great potential and I want to say I thought of it first, but I didn't. My only hope is that I may be fortunate to find investors and a developed team of experts for my own futuristic startup, the 100% automated farm, complete with plants genetically modified for more rapid growth.
