Kathleen Deoul: I think I can see where you're going. We get longer and more intense exposures to non-ionizing radiation from cell phones than were common in the past.

Copulos: Right, again, Kathleen. Even more important, the group that is probably getting the greatest exposure is the most vulnerable: children.

Kathleen Deoul: I guess that's one of the things that worries me most. All you have to do is go to the shopping mall, or anywhere else that young people congregate and you can see them all on their phones all the time. Also, most of them now seem to have hands-free phones that makes the problem even worse, because most of them don't know that you actually get more exposure to harmful radiation from the hands-free units than from a hand-held unit.

Copulos: Exactly, and I would also point out that the exposure is there whenever the cell phone is transmitting, whether you are talking or not. So when they are text messaging, playing video games, or listening to music, they are getting just as much exposure as if they were having a conversation.

Kathleen Deoul: What also worries me is the growing presence of technologies such as WiFi and Bluetooth which permit cell phones and computers to talk to each other without the need for a wired connection. While most users give it little thought, what these technologies do is use radio waves to create their connections. WiFi creates what is called a "Local Area Network," or "LAN" like you might have in your office, while Bluetooth is used to create a "Personal Area Network," or "PAN" such as you might have at home linking two or more computers. Of course, the most common use for Bluetooth is for wireless hands-free cell phones and for WiFi providing internet access to individuals away from home. But the important point is that both dramatically increase the exposure of people to non-ionizing radiation - in the case of WiFi even people who don't have cell phones or personal computers and don't even realize that they are being bombarded by microwave radiation.
