No link between cell phones, tumors

A new study confirms the finding of several others that "...there is no substantial risk in the first decade after starting use [of cell phones]."  "The study, conducted by the London-based Institute of Cancer Research, and published this week on the British Journal of Cancer's Web site, found no increased risks of a rare benign tumor in the nerve that links the ear to the brain....it may not be a good idea for children to use the phones for long periods because their brains are still developing. Also, it is too early to tell what the effects of long-term use will be on adults."
