I'm not buying it...I think it's a crock.  If you want to test your knowledge of cancer and some of the common myths then take this quiz.  It has some really good info. in it.

I received the following comment from someone calling themselves "Ghost Rider".  I guess I'll post his reply here:

We should not miss the point here. If your motorcycle is pushing up to 500 mG of ELF EMF radiation into your groin then there is reason for health concern. Page 2 of the motorcyclecancer site presents facts that cannot be ignored. Riding is dangerous enough and we should not have to gamble with our health on this technical level also. Cancers are becoming an epidemic and ELF EMF radiation is emerging as a recognized carcinogen. To quote the site:

Individual responsibility leads to content accountability. Science proves electromagnetic danger. Now that a type of motorcycle ELF EMF has been exposed, I hope denial is not going to be considered as a solution.

Ultimately the choice is our own to become more educated about these EMF issues.

As for governments and industry keeping people in the dark about emerging EMF health issues, I would like to quote the site again:

Many experts believe existing government regulations are extremely inadequate concerning various EM close exposures and public safety. Unfortunately this can create a false sense of well being for different industries that claim compliance to government standards. Where does that leave the consumer?

I feel that this Chipkar guy is bang on target and time will prove him correct.

 

I'm hesitant to post the reply because I'm not a messenger in that sense but there it is.
