Cooking an Egg with a Cellphone?!
I’m not sure if I should take this with a grain of salt, or get lead lining added to my boxer briefs.
Many organizations including the cell phone industry often downplay the risk of cell phone radiation to the brain. Even in a Wikipedia entry, it was noted that the radiation emitting from a cellphone is in excess of what is allowed to leak from a microwave oven.
This peaked the interest of two Russian journalists, Vladimir Lagovski and Andrei Moiseynko (*cough* from the publication Pravda *cough*) who decided to test how harmful these radioactive waves emitting from a cellphone really are.
The created a simple setup and observed what happened over a period of 65 minutes. During the first 15 minutes, nothing changed to the egg. After 25 minutes, however, the egg shell started to become hot and at 40 minutes, the surface of the egg became hard and bristled. Researchers found the protein in the egg had become solid although the egg yolk was still in liquid form. After 65 minutes, the whole egg was well cooked.
Once again, this is certainly not a scientific study, and has not been independently verified. HOWEVER, just thinking this this test could be the least bit valid scares me.
