Verily I say unto thee, that Roy Schestowitz spake thusly:

I still am, but I can tell you that I'd be overjoyed if they banned it.
Of course that would just drive it underground, like other drugs, but
it'd be a great disincentive for me. I wouldn't go looking for it on
street corners.

That's an old one. Probably only really affects people who spend all day
on the phone. There's also the question of the relay masts and overhead
power lines. Heck, if you live near a granite quarry you're subjected to
higher than average radiation. There's an old (sand) quarry near me
that's been in the news recently ... they want to use it to dump
radioactive waste! How thoughtful.
