   CELL PHONE USE REDUCES BRAIN ACTIVITY

   Yet another survey is confirming what most of the independent surveys have said previously: Use of cell phones are dangerous.
   Even after few minutes of use adults brain activity are significantly reduced and it remains so for a long time after the use has ended. Children are even worse off. Only after two minutes their brain activity are dwindling and remains so as much as 50 minutes after the use has ended.
   This survey is done by the German scientist Michael Klieeisen by the Spanish Neuron Diagnostic Research Center in Marabella.
   He says that parents shouldn't allow children to use cell phones, since their brains are less developed and more prone to suffer damage.
   When pressed he says that adults shouldn't permit themselves to use it either. They're really playing hazard with their health.
